New kimono
My little son has been attending judo classes for a month, and yesterday I bought him a white judogi (a special kimono for practising judo). He looks so grown-up and serious in that kimono, when performing his holds and exercises according to the trainer’s instructions. Is this really my little child who was born just seven years ago, and who sits on my knee now and again, puts his arms around my neck and asks me to tell him a fairy tale about a hedgehog and a chipmunk?
Gradually he is becoming an adult. And I need to hold on to these moments of his childhood. They are marvelous. And they will never return.
Such a true story, I'm only 16 but I can just see my sister's childhood slipping away more and more whenever I see her... It's sad in a way, but exciting in another.
