My daughter Reika will be entering kindergarten this spring.
Without everyone's support, I wouldn't have been able to raise her as a single mother. Thank you so much.
The day I found out I was unexpectedly pregnant, I felt really anxious.
My parents were repeatedly in and out of the hospital, and I don't have any siblings. I wasn't sure if I could raise a baby properly without anyone to rely on.
But my father, who passed away last year, told me he wanted to see the face of his grandchild, so I decided to give birth to Reika.
I still remember being in critical condition when I gave birth, and how my father cried when the doctor asked him who he wanted to save. Reika did her best and came into this world.
I'm incredibly grateful to have given birth to her.
To have met Reika who is this adorable.
Since the day she was born, I've loved her more than anything in this world, every single day.
Of course, life wasn't easy.
I'm physically weak, so I breastfed Reika until she was three, hoping she would grow up as strong as possible.
And because I am a single mother, I chose to become a VTuber, so I could stay by her side as much as possible.
Things weren't smooth sailing., and I've been living off the savings I earned from my idol days. But more and more people started to support me.
Reika has grown up streaming with me. She was once a little baby, learned how to speak, learned how to sing, and now she has become a kindergartener.
To everyone who has been watching over us.
I would like to thank you all from my heart.
And I hope you will continue to watch over us.
