When my children were young, we hosted exchange students for a few weeks every summer. Most of the time our students were from Japan, and one of the most exciting things for my youngest daughter was the knowledge that they would probably bring Japanese sweets for her and her sister. Melanie had quite the sweet tooth (and still does at age 27).
I've been thinking a lot about those students, who would be all grown up now, probably with children of their own. I only kept in touch with a few of them, and that has only been once a year notes. As the days go on, I'm trying to think of all the sweet memories and not focus on what might be.
