Kimono-clad girls and their mother pose for a photo during an annual Shichi-Go-San (七五三) festival at Hie Shrine in Tokyo on Saturday. Japanese families celebrate the traditional event by dressing up their children, only seven-year-old girls, five-year-old boys and three-year-old boys and girls, and visit shrines to celebrate children's growth and pray for their future well-being.

So cute. This is one of the better traditional customs/festivals in Japan in my mind.

Indeed! Taking such photos (and saying thank you) has always been one of my greatest pleasures.

Yes, one of the joys of raising kids here.
