Anniversary gifts

[zen_of_kabaji]

First anniversaries are sort of hard to think about getting things for. I know I really don't have to, but I enjoy when I can give my husband little gifts that I think he'll like. I sort of blame growing up with Keigo for that. Not that that's a bad thing at all.

So I managed to get what I think is the perfect gift. First year anniversaries are called "Paper" and so I gave Ryou a gift of paper. I managed to get us four tickets to the US Open. He and the kids and I will fly to New York. We get to stay in a nice hotel and we get courtside seats for the tournament. This will be the first time our son has seen professional tennis in person.

Which I can happily announce that the last of the paperwork has been processed and Dmitri is officially and legally ours. And after talking a lot with him, he and the rest of the family have decided that he gets two names. His Russian one and a Japanese one. He picked Daichi. I think it's a very good name.

Annoyed at what? What a thoughtful and helpful friend I am? Tsk.

At how haughty and full of yourself you still are.

Some of us have already achieved perfection. Would you rather I practice some form of false modesty?

And for the rest of us that are still working on it, that needn't be rubbed in our faces.

I cannot help that my mere existence is enough to make you feel inferior. As my grandmother always said: Don't be ashamed of who you are; hold your head up high and be an example to others.

Tch, I don't feel inferior to you at all!

I know, and that always amuses me.
