𝙳𝚎𝚊𝚛 𝚂𝚊𝚗𝚝𝚊 (𝙼𝚘𝚝𝚑𝚎𝚛𝚑𝚘𝚘𝚍 𝚒𝚗 𝙹𝚊𝚙𝚊𝚗 𝙿𝚘𝚜𝚝!) __________ Did you have a wonderful Christmas? Lucky Miss M got everything she wanted for Christmas (purple shoes, a fox family, and plenty of dinosaurs). ⁣ But, to me, this is more than a letter to Santa. ⁣ This list represents all the changes and freedom I’ve encountered since losing my job. ⁣ (When I say “lose” I actually mean, my sexual harassment claim was dismissed & I was given a zero hour contract — nice way to jumpstart pandemic life, amirite?) ⁣ I was angry, hurt, and embarrassed. But, managed to transition from teaching kindy to a new career as a brand consultant/social media manager. (Also, I got profiled in an interview with @BBC100women, too!) ⁣ My schedule varies daily, but nearly every weekday morning starts with a homeschool lesson. ⁣ I was definitely intimidated with Japanese lessons as I’m not a native speaker. But, seeing my daughter try every day encourages me to try harder, too. (My handwriting still sucks though🤣) ⁣ The first months were HARD but our frustration and tears turned to smiles and laughter. ⁣ The other day, my daughter even told me she wants to be a mom when she grows up! ⁣ I was so sure she’d say something like “Shinkansen (bullet train) driver” or “dinosaur,” or “unicorn princess.” ⁣ Genuinely curious, I just had to ask, “Why do you want to be a mom?” ⁣ Her answer? ⁣ “Because we have so much fun together!” 🥰🥰🥰 ⁣ Needless to say, a new chapter has started in my life. ⁣ For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith — and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God.(Ephesians 2:8-9) ⁣ I’m cautious about 2021 but really look forward to to sharing my journey of healing and self-discovery with you✨ ⁣ (If you made it this far, thanks for reading!😘❤️✨) __________ #thewagamamadiaries #learnjapanese #christmaslist #lifeinjapan #japanlife #workinjapan #myjapan #tokyomama #bilingualkids #bbc100women #metoo #speakup #whenlifegivesyoulemons #selfdiscovery #selfdiscoveryjourney #strongasamother #momtrepreneur #motherhoodunplugged #wahm #kidsgram_japan #kidsgram_tokyo #timefreedom #worklifebalance #workingfromwifi #ohheymama #Godisgood #blessed
𝚃𝚑𝚎 𝚂𝚠𝚎𝚎𝚝 𝙻𝚒𝚏𝚎 𝚃𝚑𝚎 𝚂𝚠𝚎𝚎𝚝 𝙻𝚒𝚏𝚎 ___________ Stopped by @ookiinizi_i to pick up another round of Japanese fruit sandwiches (“fruit sando”) for today’s picnic. These sweet, colorful delights use strawberries, orange, kiwis and other fruits sandwiched between a generous helping of whipped cream and milk bread Are fruit sandwiches something you’d like to try? 春のピクニックにも持っていきたい、フルーツサンド！今回のお出かけ先では @ookiinizi_i のいちごサンド&苺のお花を美味しくいただきました🥪🍓 店内にキッズスペースが設置されて、今度はイートインしてみたいと思います👩‍👧 ___________ 📍 大きい虹/Ookii Nizi 🗺 東京都江戸川区松江２-４−２/2-4-2 Matsue, Edogawa-ku, Tokyo Prefecture ___________ . . . . . . . . . #thewagamamadiaries #fruitsandwich #edogawa #edogawaku #japanesesweets #lunchdate #kidsgram_japan #kidsgram_tokyo #love_kodomo_japan #mamanoko #tokyomama #thesweetlife #江戸川区　#江戸川区ママ　#ママ撮 #子育てぐらむ #東京女子部 #東京ママ #母娘　#母娘デート　#最近ハマってる　#お気に入りの場所 #ピクニック　#ピクニック弁当　#フルーツサンド #コドモダカラ#スマイル育児 #親バカ部#ママライフカメラ 　 #ipreview via @preview.app
𝙳𝚒𝚗𝚘𝚜𝚊𝚞𝚛 𝙿𝚊𝚛𝚔 𝙳𝚒𝚗𝚘𝚜𝚊𝚞𝚛 𝙿𝚊𝚛𝚔 - 𝙺𝚘𝚍𝚘𝚖𝚘 𝚗𝚘 𝙷𝚒𝚛𝚘𝚋𝚊 __________ On Sunday, I took my junior paleontologist to “Dinosaur Park” near Nishi Kasai Station on the Tozai Line🦖 It’s officially called Kodomo no Hiroba, but it’s also known as “Monster Park.” We brought bentos (and yummy fruit sandwiches), but there’s a 7/11 right across the street from the park. Once temperatures warm up again, we’ll be back!👩‍👧 西葛西駅から徒歩2〜3分にある恐竜の遊具がある公園「子供の広場」に行ってみました🦖 お弁当を持って行ったけど、近くにコンビニや飲食店があるので、手軽で気軽に家族で出かけられるのが良いと思います👩‍👧 __________ 📍子供の広場/Kodomo Square 🗺 東京都江戸川区南葛西6-11-23/6-11-23 Minami Kasai, Edogawa-ku, Tokyo Prefecture __________ . . . . . . . . . . #thewagamamadiaries #edogawa #edogawacity #tokyomama #tokyowithkids #ilovedinosaurs #dinosaurs #kidsgram_tokyo #kidsgram_japan #love_kodomo_japan #mamanoko #tokyomama #momlife #恐竜公園　#子供の広場 #恐竜好き　#東京ママ 　#恐竜博士 #恐竜 #江戸川区　#江戸川区ママ　#西葛西　#ママ撮 #子育てぐらむ　#お気に入りの場所 #コドモダカラ #スマイル育児 #親バカ部 #ママライフカメラ #ipreview via @preview.app

No, I’m not at a Christkindl Markt, but at the Kerst Bloem festive pop-up shop inside @route_cafe_and_things✨ 😭 The cafe is on the 4th floor of the Marunouchi Building and faces Tokyo Station, so the seating area has excellent views of the architecture (and JR trains in action)! Route Cafe and Things opens at 11 AM, so if you want to add a bit of Christmas cheer to your week while beating the holiday crowds and staying warm, this is the place to be☕ Kerst Bloem specializes in Christmas decorations, so perhaps you’ll find a new addition to your tree as well. __________ 📍 ROUTE CAFE AND THINGS 🗺 東京都千代田区丸の内2-4-1丸の内ビルディング４階 ℹ️ https://kerstbloem.com/ __________ . . . . . #kerstbloem #routecafeandthings #クリスマス #クリスマスオーナメント #pr . . . . . #thewagamamadiaries #cafestagram #tokyocafe #marunouchibuilding #tokyostation #christmasintokyo #winterintokyo #tokyochristmasmarket #ChristkindlMarkt #東京女子部 #東京カフェ巡り #セレクトショップ #丸の内ビル #東京駅 #丸の内　#丸ビル　#クリスマスマーケット #カフェ巡り #カフェ巡り部 #カフェタイム #カフェスイーツ
𝙽𝚎𝚠 𝙰𝚛𝚛𝚒𝚟𝚊𝚕: 𝙾𝚋𝚊𝚐𝚒 𝚇 𝙻𝚒𝚏𝚝 𝙻𝚘𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗 __________ MAQUIAベストコスメを受賞したスキンケア 【オバジX リフトローション 】を使ってみました！ ⁣ @obagi_japan_official の商品提供を頂いたのでご紹介します。 ⁣ オバジX リフトローションは角質細胞にたっぷり潤いを与えながらハリ肌の土台を作ってくれるエイジングケア化粧水。 ⁣ 高級感のあるゴールドパッケージは印象的で毎日頑張っている自分へのご褒美スキンケアとして使っています。 ⁣ 使用方法は、洗顔後に500円硬貨大くらいの量を手のひらに取り、顔全体に優しく馴染ませます。 ⁣ フローラルの香りがありますが、ほんのり爽やかな感じです。肌に馴染ませると、みずみずしく清涼感があり、しっとりとしたテクスチャは艶やかに仕上がります。浸透力も保湿力が高く、まるで美容液のような化粧水！使い続けると効果ありそうですので期待しています✨ ⁣ @obagi_japan_official sent me their award-winning Obagi X Lift Lotion to try. Japanese “lotions” are akin to watery moisturizers that gives your skin an extra boost of hydration, and Obagi X Lift Lotion delivers on this. It’s an “anti-aging” product clinically formulated to plump skin at the cellular level. ⁣ I’m usually not impressed by packaging, but I couldn't help but be awed by the gilded packaging and gold embossed cap. The directions instruct you to apply to a 500 yen coin sized amount to the face after washing, but I almost feel guilty for using so much! ⁣ Obagi X Lift Lotion has a very light, nearly faint floral scent. It has a watery texture that’s quickly absorbed by the skin, leaving a satin smooth finish that has a cooling, hydrated effect. It feels almost like a serum! ⁣ If there was ever an excuse to treat yourself with skincare, this is probably it! I’m looking forward to making Obagi X Lift Lotion a part of my daily routine✨ __________ . . . . . #オバジ #obagi #オバジXリフトローション #MAQUIAベストコスメ受賞 . . . . . #肌トラブル改善 #obagixliftlotion #japanesecosmetics #luxuryskincare #jbeauty #igskincare #japaneseskincare #skincareroutine #glowingskin #お気に入りスキンケア #コスメ好きさんと繋がりたい #スキンケアマニア #素肌美人 #コスメレビュー　#コスメレポ #スキンケア商品 #エイジングケア #美活 #おうちの時間 #スキンケア大好き #スキンケア好き #スキンケアレポ #自分へのご褒美 #ipreview via @preview.app
𝙹𝚊𝚙𝚊𝚗𝚎𝚜𝚎 𝙽𝚎𝚠 𝚈 𝙹𝚊𝚙𝚊𝚗𝚎𝚜𝚎 𝙽𝚎𝚠 𝚈𝚎𝚊𝚛 𝟷𝟶𝟷: 𝙵𝚞𝚔𝚞𝚋𝚞𝚔𝚞𝚛𝚘 __________ ドラッグストアの福袋を買ってみました 🛍 コスメ商品・日用品・食料品などの詰め合わせにかなり満足しています🤩 Fukubukuro (福袋) are “lucky bags” filled with discounted merchandise sold during the first days of the new year. Normally, you wouldn’t know what’s inside your fukubukuro until you opened it, often resulting in buyer’s remorse. In recent years, shops have begun to disclose the contents in order to entice customers. Another trend for highly sought fukubukuro is pre-registration in order to stop third-party resellers. This particular drugstore listed all the contents in a newspaper advert, so I knew exactly what to expect! Swipe to see what I got🛍 Not pictured are the contents of the ice cream fukubukuro😋😅 __________ . . . . . . . . . . #thewagammamadiaries #fukubukuro #luckybag #whatsinside #shoppinginjapan #learnjapanese #discoverjapan #unknownjapan #myjapan #lifeinjapan #japanlife #instagramjapan #retailtherapy #shoptillyoudrop #japanesenewyear #japanesecustoms #japaneseculture #japanblog #japanblogger #japaneseblogger #japanfocus #ilovejapan #lovejapan #expatlife #igersjp #お正月 #初売り #福袋　#福袋2021

(I mean, it’s worked for us all throughout the pandemic so...🤷🏽‍♀️🤣) ⁣ By the way, one of my jobs is managing the social media accounts of a real estate agency. So, if you’re looking for a place to stay in Tokyo/what areas to consider, hit me up😉 ⁣ コロナの影響で仕事がなくなったけど、今はリビングがマイオフィスになりました！最初はバランスを取るのは難しかったけど、ホームスクールをやりながらテレワークを両立させて、毎日、娘の成長を実感できるのは本当にありがたく思います☺️ __________ . . . . . . . . . . #thewagamamadiaries #workinjapan #lifeinjapan #japanlife #tokyomama #strongasamother #momtrepreneur #socialmediamarketing #motherhoodunplugged #wahm #workfromhome #homeoffice #homeschool #homeschoolmama #workandplay #kidsgram_japan #kidsgram_tokyo #timefreedom #worklifebalance #workingfromwifi #ohheymama #テレワーク　#在宅勤務 #ママライフ #働くママ #snsマーケティング #ipreview via @preview.app
