Noelle, you are so cute and fun!  Poppa and Rara have been in Japan for the past two weeks, and Noelle has really missed them.  She has worn her kimono (her penpal Yuuki gave her) and talked about Japan constantly.  She’s loved following their trip and always asks if she can be a "Japanese girl" when she plays dress-up.

Here’s a geisha the parents got to admire in Kyoto.
