kindergarten. I am sleepy every morning but I still get up. I will

for uchimata)."

as I have ice cream."

Ashai Yoko (wife)
"I will workout hard this year, and
I hope to lose weight. I will try not to
fight with my children. I will try to be a gentle (good) mother to
them."
Asahi Dai (husband - 108kg)
"My resolution every year is to lose
weight, but I have been gaining more weight
instead. This year, I want to try various (many) things. I will
continue to try hard this year so the children don't beat me (at
Judo)."
