finally got a chance to download the photos matsu took on M6. a lot of
people wanted to see the kids happy. well, matsu brought the smiles out
of the kids. so many beautiful tohoku smiles in the photos he took and i
want to share a gallery with you. but for now, look at these cute kids.
there is finally a store the can come to. there is finally a place where
they can play. and there is finally a place where they can buy their
favorite snacks. the market was the best idea ever and naomi-san is the
person to thank. so many people were asking “is this only for today?”
well, no, it wasn’t only for april 14th. that store will be there for a
long time. our team was so happy to be a part of that very special day.
i won’t forget the smiles, and i won’t forget the awesome feeling to see
people be so happy to gather someplace near to their temporary housing.
now they can walk down the street instead of driving 30 minutes to the
nearest store.
To: Naomi-san,
Hey Naomi-san, I want to congratulate you on your new store.
You have a big heart to the people of Kitakami.
We are so happy to see your dream come true.
Our team will support your store forever!
We will be back and We will Always Be ONE!
Keep on Smiling, Keep on Kitakami!
Aloha from Hawaii,
Kirby
