Mae loves to help Phil...they spent the morning on Saturday cleaning up our little backyard. It's starting to cool down a little so we might actually be able to play outside again. It's been a hot, hot summer in Japan. One of the hottest ever and it's soooo long! Even Saturday it was really hot. We don't go out until after 3pm. Mae can't wait to go to some parks again, although she has learned how to so do some crafts and color a little over the summer.
