60565    We had a relaxed special New Year dinner.

60566    We had never had such an experience since we got married.

60567    In particular, I was freed from house chores and felt as if I was in Heaven.

60568    A while after the New Year week, our second son in the third grade of elementary school then, said,...

60569    "We had no New Year's Day this year."

60570    I told him, "We had a special dinner at the hotel."

60571    From his point of view, the New Year meant celebrating the day at home.

60572    In addition, the essential part was the back view of his mother preparing festive food for the New Year in the kitchen.

60573    It is interesting that "yesterday" becomes "last year" in a single night.

60574    On the morning of New Year's Day, familiar scenes in my house look fresh.

60575    Regular members say "a Happy New Year" with an air of profound respect, instead of "Good Morning."

60576    The most important for my second son was the money given from his parents and grandparents as a gift at the New Year.

60577    Probably, he has already established the story of this special day in his younger heart.

60578    His words made me think I should cherish our humble event of the New Year Day.

60579    When traveling abroad, we find a kimono very useful at a party.
