On the way home from nursery today my 3 y.o. asked “Papa, when will I get homework?”

There are times that I don’t see me in my daughter (very rare times) - most notably when she is eating and enjoying natto.. but times like these are re-affirming.

I responded, “not normally until you start school which isn’t until you are 7 y.o. in Japan. Why do you ask? Do you want homework?”

She replied in the affirmative so I’ll have a new task as homework setter once we’ve moved.. she then said she’d need a toy computer to do the homework..

So I told her I’ll make her a real computer when we move to Japan.. which made her very happy.. awww a wee geek bud is starting to grow.
