It is so different from any Holiday we celebrate, but I absolutely love the reason for it and wish we had something like it. Especially because we have three (now middle-aged) sons, four grandsons, and two great-grandsons. (And a daughter and two grand-daughters.) I understand very well how deeply parents wish for their children's future happiness and success and I too hope people in Japan continue to fly those streamers every year!Sallie (FullTime-Life)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15442598857394838271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8639768542553618012.post-72878112507750619842014-05-06T00:42:38.450+09:002014-05-06T00:42:38.450+09:00What a nice tradition to have.
