It’s my sisters 21st birthday…well, I 'm lost for words, because time goes by so quickly…so I guess it’s time to recall the past and some old memories......Happy Birthday Esther !!! This is a story of a woman named Esther : 
July 18th, 1886 : sweet babygirl Esther is born! Her 1st Birthday: "mummy, can i unwrap one of my gifts?"..well, i guess she was rather interested in those kindled candles sticking in her cake.
 How cute..my brother Josh and little Esther. Even back then he felt he has to protect her.
 Jah, that's my girl...what a sweet smile =)
Esther is going to stay at the Noguchi's for 3 months... I love this one..dad smiling at a picture ! 
Little brother T.D. was born in September. At this time, Esther is already at the age of 6.
