Sakura Ruth

Joe Jones at the Japan Law Blog wrote about dual citizenship a while back, specifically what a Japanese citizen with additional citizenship needs to do at age 22. Sakura is Japanese now but will become an American as well; the process involves a trip to the embassy with baby and (ideally) both parents present, though, so we'll wait until she's a bit more travel- and bureaucracy-ready. Akasaka is a long way from Koganei when you're dealing with a hungry, wriggling person.

After a disastrous attempt at upgrading the software on this server, I'm back to a backed-up version of everything. It's missing some recent posts, though; I think this video may have been in one of them. Sakura really wants some of that bread!
