Hello, everyone.
 Taking advantage (?) of the boom in childbearing in the Go world, I gave birth to a boy in November last year. He's now six months old and is healthy and growing steadily.
 
 Recently he's started to laugh. My first child is cuter that I had imagined, and I'm just wrapped in him. Child-rearing is tough, as everything is a new experience, but it's also fun.
 
 The amount of time I can spend thinking about Go has really decreased recently. But actually my games feel fresh now, so they are a lot of fun.
 
 I hope to keep doing my best to combine child-reading and Go.
