I was worried but I guess I shouldn't have been
After a lot of thinking, I decided that I was going to reopen my daycare. I won't let those men beat me. They might have hurt me and they might now be in the deepest darkest prison the Japanese law could find them, but I won't let them keep me from doing what I love.
I was a little worried though. After what happened, I was sure that my fellow daycare worker wouldn't want to come back. I also worried that parents of small children wouldn't want them to come to such a place. It's not safe anymore. It was attacked. But instead, it's the direct opposite. I thought I had a lot of applications before. Now it's tripled in number. There are little letters from parents praising me for putting my life on the line for the children and how they feel that their sons and daughters would never be safer than with me. It's sort of humbling to real all of that. But it means I have to make hard decisions again as there is no way I can manage all those kids, even with my wonderful assistant.
