Welcome to our world!

My chinese name is Yin Ling and baby Minori's unofficial middle name is Yen. Both Yin and Yen mean swallow (as in the bird) in chinese. The same swallows that migrate to Malaysia in winter to escape the cold return to Japan when the weather begins to warm up. Like the swallows here, together with daddy, we make our trips between the two countries. Isn't it nice to have two places we can call home?

Counting down

... to M's first birthday, that is! She turns one in less than a week! I can hardly believe a year has gone by. The initial plan was to throw her a mini birthday party but when I read somewhere last week that parties could be overwhelming for one-year-olds, I figured we should just have a smallish (but fun!) family celebration.

Right now I'm just trying to get her birthday present together. I really should take a photo and post it up here. Maybe tomorrow if time permits.

Say Happy Birthday to Minori for me on 22 May. I'll be flying tonight to Beijing and won't be back until 23 May. Won't have access to internet in Beijing.
