Introducing Our New Member!

Somebody told me I was a pro-daddy because I already got 3 kids. Well, it's not true. Everytime my wife and I welcome our new born, it's always a whole new experience. Changing diapers, taking bath, helping sleep... I've done these with other 3 and even with my younger brothers and sister; but it's all new. Every new born is different and unique. I gotta learn how to raise a little one again. Nervous? Yes, and off course, EXCITED! Mahalo for the chance to watch you grow, Meita!

The Princess!

I never knew until Maia was born 2 years ago why most dads loved their daughters so deep. Well, she's cute. I gotta admit that. Besides, she's the best model in our family; she not only smiles at camera but gives a model-like expression.

The Peacemaker!

Mizuki, 3 year-old and our 2nd kid, has always been the peacemaker to our family. His cheeky smile and baby-like tone of voice have been the healing to us ever since he was born. He makes others happy, too. Sometimes I wish him to stay just like he is now and not become an adult, but I know he'll grow big. Just develop the attribute of who you are and always be the Peacemaker to us all.

Responsibility to Privilege to Honor!

It's been freezing cold lately where we live, but I guess it don't matter for the kids. They don't care how cold it is, sunny or rainy, that's what they care. Since my wife has to take care of our infant at home now, it's my responsibility to take older kids out. But I feel it's my privilege to hang out with them cause I can see their growths, characteristics, and interests at first hand. It makes me feel honored to be their "Dadda."

Birth Story of Our 4th Baby

My wife, Mayumi, gave birth to our 4th baby (3rd boy) in the beginning of this month. He came out about 3 weeks earlier than his due date, but both of them were in safe and healthy. Thank you, Mayumi, for giving birth to the little Meita. Welcome, Meita, to the Earth; the huge blessings will be waiting for you to receive.

Ready, Get Set, GO!

Masatsugu is the oldest of 4 kids in my family who just turned 5 last month. He loves the Pixar movie, Cars, as you can see from his shoes. I can't believe how fast the time goes by like a "lightning."

Be ready for the day!

What would I do when it was cold but a beautiful sunny day? Yes, it's the best time to photograph kids at park!

Let's get it started!

After years of laziness and hesitation, I've finally committed to start my blog now. Here I post some of my photographs of family, friends, personal works and interests, and anything I want to share with you. Well, climb the ladder, and let's get it started!
