Emily goes back to school today. Last night then was likely her last night sleeping under our roof as our âkidâ, as her next home will probably be her own apartment in Tokyo. Thanks for growing up with us, Emily. Mom and I will still be around for a while. So, donât forget to drop by for dinner on Sundays when youâre free. Maybe you and I can even walk together after dinner to FamilyMart to get ice cream for dessert like we did when you were small? That would be fun. Life turns circles, after all. đ
