最近ブログ用写真を撮るのを忘れがち。Nikon Coolpixの反応が鈍く、動き続けるアラタのいいショットが撮れない事が原因。カナダから遊びに来ていた郁子さんとの記念撮影も、れいこさん宅でのBBQでも撮り忘れた。この一枚はアラタがバケツの中に入って得意になっているところ。動かないこんな瞬間なら撮れるのに！
金曜日。郁子さんが折角Wokingまで遊びに来てくれたのにアラタは不調で嘔吐。私もアラタもゲロまみれで、落ちつかないままに時間切れ。本当にごめんね、郁子さん。そして、アラタにOttawaのロゴ入りの素敵なフリースをありがとう。次男の代まで大切に使うよ！
風邪でも引いたのかと思っていたら、今日は元気で、れいこさん宅のBBQにアラタと二人で参加した。Jasonには車で送ってもらう。ところが、ダディが行ってしまってからも、駐車したら来ると思っているアラタは、玄関に佇んで「ダディ」と言いながら待ち続けた。「ダディはおうちに帰ったよ。後で会えるよ。」と何回も言ってようやく納得。数時間すると、「ダディ、ない」と独り言。健気なアラタ…。アラタはダディが大好きだから。私もJasonが恋しかった。だって、いたずらっ子のアラタからずっと目が離せなくて大変だったんだもの。
I've kept forgetting to take photos for my weblog. It's because the shutter timing of my current camera, Nikon Coolpix, is a bit slow which makes it difficult to take good photos of active 1 year old. I even forgot to take one with Ikuko, who came to see us all the way from Canada, or today, at a BBQ party at Reiko's.
Last Friday. Ikuko came to Woking to see us but Arata didn't feel well and threw up just after she arrived... Arata and I were covered with his vomit, and it was so difficult to properly entertain Ikuko. I feel so bad. She brought a nice fleece jacket with Ottawa logo for Arata. Thank you, Ikuko. Arata will definitely be warm this winter, and so will his brother in a couple of years!
We were worried that Arata may have had another cold. As he seemed to be fine this morning, I took Arata to Reiko's BBQ. After Jason dropped us off, Arata was waiting for Jason at Reiko's entrance hall for a while saying "Daddy..." He was obviously expecting Jason to come back after parking the car and I had to keep telling him that Daddy had gone home. Quite surprisingly, out of blue, Arata said, "Daddy nai" (= 'no daddy') a couple of hours later. I knew how much Arata missed Jason. He loves daddy. I also missed Jason because it was so stressful for me to keep an eye on mischievous Arata all the time by myself!
