////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

I introduce ''茶色 ( brown )'' on this time.

The peach blossom is very cute.
I think that pink expresses attractiveness of peach blossom very well.

The pink is one of the favorite colors of my pretty daughter.


I introduce ''水色'' on the next time.


Thank you.
See you next time.

All of us are piece of peace.
