Today was a very important day for me.  I got to go to the hospital and see my new baby.  Everyone seems very happy that she was born, but I am tired.  I have to do lots of cooking, cleaning, and working.  My daughter is also busy everyday.  She likes to sing and dance.  Sometime she does strange things, but usually she is very good.  Yesterday I went to the store to buy some vegetables.  The carrots were very cheap, but lettuce was too expensive to buy.  Maybe someday the prices in Japan will go down.
