Rabbit arrives the 1st of each month

"Rabbit" is the word to say on the 1st of each month. I began playing this game with a college roommate -- whoever says "Rabbit" 1st wins!

This playful game is both a fun way to connect and an easy way to orientate to the calendar. I shared this game with my husband and children, and we have great fun competing to see who will win each month.

Since I am a visual person, now I text this photo to my family on the 1st of the month.

I took this picture at a Shinto temple while visiting my daughter in Japan.
