jiji and daddy

Tokyo, 2010.03.18

The Boy' maternal grandparents, "Jiji" and "Kazu" are with us again. It's caused a bit of confusion.Just as with previous visits, The Boy has trouble keeping the words "Jiji" (meaning grandpa) and "Daddy" apart. He addresses Mari's father and me with both words as the whim strikes him. I'm not sure how he can "remember to confuse us" when he doesn't see his grandpa for months at a time, but it's surfaced again.
