                            My Daughter Chao Chao's 7-5-3 (Shichi-Go-San) celebration yesterday ... with son, wife and mother-in-law. Whole family came out.

                            Shichi-go-san
                            FESTIVAL, JAPAN

                            Shichi-go-san, (Japanese: “Seven-Five-Three”), one of the most important festivals for Japanese children, observed annually on November 15. On this date girls of three and seven years of age and boys of five years of age are taken by their parents to the Shintō shrine of their tutelary deity to offer thanks for having reached their respective ages and to invoke blessings for the future. In former times the day was also marked by five-year-old boys of the samurai class being dressed in a hakama (pleated, divided skirt) and presented to their respective feudal lords, seven-year-old girls wearing the formal obi (stiff sash), and the three-year-old girls having their hair arranged on top of their heads, all for the first time.
                            Shichi go san is a cherished Japanese festival that celebrates the milestones of children at the ages of three, five, and seven. Held annually throughout November, but especially on November 15th, this traditional event provides a unique lens into the cultural values, family traditions, and religious aspects interwoven into Japanese society. Shichi go san honors the growth and well-being of 3 and 7-year-old girls, and 5-year-old (sometimes 3-year-old) boys. While not a national holiday, families commonly observe it on the nearest weekend to accommodate busy modern schedules. The festival's roots trace back to the Heian period, when it began amongst court nobles before spreading to samurai and commoners in later eras.
