My daughter became six years old on March 11 in 1974.
Eight days later, her father died.
It was two weeks later since her father's death that
she became a first year pupil of elementary school.
Ten days have passed since koharu, my six-year-old
granddaughter, started to go to elementary school.
koharu always reminds me of my daughter who was 6
years old, 32 years ago. Is it because I'm getting
old that I often call koharu by her mother's name?

near my home in Niigata.
