mei mei

June 13, 2009

for blog motomariThis is a young boy and his new little sister, or, “mei mei”.  My children are Japanese, but have an aunt, adopted from China, who has named her pet dog “Mei Mei”, the Chinese word for ‘little sister’.   This is all a bit confusing to this boy.

I took this photo this morning.  I like the grainy look it has.  It could  be two children from another time entirely, I think.

  1. This is both a lovely photo AND a lovely sentiment! As one who has had family aunts with dogs named Sukoshi and Chisai (I’m from the melting pot of Hawaii, also lived in Japan, etc.) rest assured it’ll all wash out on the who’s who front. heh.
