I took Emily to Nandemo for our morning playtime. There was a bit of a Filipina nannies convention going on as I was the only one among about 8 of them. Still, I am used to being surrounded by people I can't understand, just that it is usually Japanese not Tagalog!
I was disgusted when an American mum came in with her two year old daughter, as the child had pierced ears. I just cannot get my head around what these sad individuals are thinking of, mutilating their babies like that. Nick says when we dress our children we are influencing how they look, but that doesn't inflict pain, however temporary, on a small person who is totally dependent on you.
We met Nick for lunch, then dashed home for Emily's nap. I had been feeling wiped out, so took a rare nap myself. I was astounded to wake and see that it was quarter past three. I had been asleep two hours and Emily two and a half. She usually naps less than an hour and a half and I had relied on her to be my alarm clock. Well, I must have needed it. It had been a late evening thanks to Nick being late in from work again, and Emily had me up at six fifteen. The only problem was that I was supposed to be meeting Jo in Meguro at three thirty! We managed to get there by four and Emily and Isy had fun exploring the Children's Hall there, which we had not been to before.
