What I miss most about to Japan are O-baa-chan, or little grandmas. My favorite time of year in Japan is spring time when the flowers first start blooming. Little grandmas come outside to say hello to the flowers. In Japanese, they say to the first flowers of spring, "Look how beautiful you are, and how hard you worked to get here. Thank you so much for coming out today". I love how little grandmas are so appreciative of the flowers, and how grateful they are for them.
