Kimono





Miki has seen many photos of kimonos and a few of her books have characters in them who dress in a kimono. She has recently expressed interest in wearing one herself when we go to Japan. She talks about it quite a bit actually. Well, we are not 100% sure where this one came from, although I'm fairly confident that it was given to Miki a year or two ago by a visiting teacher. At the time it did not fit, obviously, so Ericka put it away knowing that one day she would grow into it.
Grow into it she did. Here she is dressed up for a fashion show. Or for an evening at the sumo stadium with green tea and sushi!
