If I know my wife's family right, she will wear wafuku. :-) Ad for shrines in the US, there is a branch shrine for Tsubaki Grand Shrine not far from Seattle. My wife and visited there a long time ago for 初もで. No clue I'd they can do shichogosan services buy even if they did I think my wife still would prefer to go back and celebrate with family. :-) Thanks very much.

Looking forward to pix of your little one. Will she be wearing wafuku or yofuku? You seem to be saying indirectly that you will be visiting Japan. By the way, is there any place to do shichi go san locally? I know there are lots of Buddhist temples in the US, but I've never heard of a shrine there. Of course, shichi go san is possible at temples too--Sensoji in Asakusa is prepared to welcome the kids and families. Perhaps the temples that are oriented to overseas Japanese might do it, more than the 'temples for gaijin.' Anyway, it's a great milestone! congratulations! Regards, JL omedetou gozaimasu!
