Value

We had a long weekend due to a holiday, Labor Day. We just mainly cleaned our house during this long weekend.

I recently received boxes from my parents. They sent a total of 9 boxes stuff from Japan. We planed to take advantage of the long weekend to unpack them.

Although the boxes are smaller, I still didn't realize I had so many picture albums from my childhood. Almost 2 1/2 of 9 boxes are packed w/ these albums. They also sent my school projects, memorable stuff including our year books, my school uniform & diplomas/awards.

My wife saw my childhood pictures for the first time and she said my face didn't change at all... mmmmmmm??

If other person saw my stuff, they might think it's all junk, but it's treasure for me. most of these were my parents work so that I will always have a remembrance of my life back in Japan. For this alone & for nicely storing them for me all these years, I am very grateful to my parents. I really hope we can also do the same thing for our future children.

Thank you, mom and dad...
