Report to Mizutengu

[Koedo Itabashi] 14:00 on October 10, 2017

I walk from Ningyocho-dori St. toward Suitengu, sometimes while entering Yokocho.

On the 8th of the third consecutive holiday in October, children were overflowing around the opening of stores in the Ningyocho area.

Parents and children with each other.

 

Every time you come to festivals and fairs, you can feel that many children have come to see in Chuo-ku.

It is an area where the puppet market was held for three days until the 7th, showing a gorgeous cityscape.

October 8 is the Tenten Festival.

"Tenten" is a word on October 10 (Totsuki Tooka) until childbirth, and is an event centered on children that is held on holidays around October 10.

 

There are actual vehicles such as ladder fire trucks, pump trucks, and white motorcycles that children love.

Oh, there was also a mascot of the Tokyo Fire Department, "Kuta", with "119" on his chest.

Am I the only one who recalls the characters "Tendonman" and "Kamameshidon" in Anpan-Man with the size of the helmet?

The sumo wrestler's corner in the Arashio room is a great success every year.

With the "Wanpaku Sumo" where you can play against wrestlers, the children's mood is at its climax.

The sumo wrestlers have a very nice photo change.

There was also a corner of Endai Shogi.

With the success of Sota Fujii 4dan, the youngest chess player in history, the children were seriously heading to the board for adults.

Yes, the other day, the story of an acquaintance who told the Shogi Kaikan in Sendagaya in search of Fujii goods.

What I couldn't get because it was sold out was the clear file of Mr. Ichizo Kato.

"Hifumin", who debuted as a singer at the age of 77, is more popular than I expected.

 

Arrived at Suitengu-sama, which is related to the name of the Tenten Festival.

Surrounded by first-time babies, dressed children, dads, moms, grandfathers, and grandmothers.

Every mother holding a baby is beautiful.

Every day raising children is really difficult, but the eyes of my child who grows up quickly are gentle and full of joy.

 

Last month, I went to Hakata to embrace my grandson.

With severe sickness, she could hardly eat or even drink, and in her backboat condition, the doctor chose cesarean section.

I thought the hospital would continue.

The mother poured her power into the baby until her body was ragged.

When I hold it, I open my eyes and look at me.

It is said that the eyes of a newborn baby do not yet have the ability to show images.

But I felt like I was seeing everything through.

Occasionally, looking for the breast, or protrudes a large mouth to the right and left.

Such a body can be compared to a small universe.

Absolute love had a weight that could even be compared to stars.

Mr. Mizutengu, thanks to you, I'm growing up well.
