The greatest blessing in my life is that I have found this partner, Moto😊 Instagram - instagram.com/kimono_mom/ Facebook - facebook.com/MOE.KimonoMom Twitter - twitter.com/Kimono_Mom
And it's aso obvious that you both cherish and respect each other 🤗😍 And of course Sutan is the center of your world ❤️😇 Very nice video, you were very cute and honest 😊
I love the way you two opened up about your lives! Thank you for sharing your precious memories and valuable advice and thank you so much for picking up my question !!!!!!❤️
"Accept that you may not have a clear direction and don't deny yourself too much. We need to keep our hearts from breaking." really needed to hear that today. Thank you, Moe-san and Moto-san. I wish you all the best in life.
My wife and I are about to try for our first and likely only child. She's really nervous about it, but watching Moe forge such a strong bond with Sutan has calms her and gives her hope of doing the same, more or less.
I was so nervous to have our child too but I would like to tell your wife that the fact that she is nervous shows that she is so aware of the hardships and that already makes her a great mom! I mean plenty of joys too, of course!
Having child is the best things ever hapen in my life. Its also bonding my relationship with my wife no matter how we hard fight each other we always ended up with thinking our children. and that ending our fight.
Thank you so much for leaving this comment here. I’m getting married 2 years from now, and we’re planning to have kids after the first year of marriage. I’d never been serious about marriage because I came from a broken family, but my best friend of 6 years who has always been there for me confessed his feelings and I accepted it after a long thought, not just because of feelings, but also because I know he’d be a good husband & a great father. Being serious about starting a family is also the reason why I subscribed to Kimono Mom’s channel. I’m already afraid of the thought that I’ll be a wife, let alone a parent. I wish you and all the wholesome people here the best of luck, and it’s okay that we’re not perfect. Humans are never perfect, but the fact that we keep trying and not give up is already enough to keep us going in life. Sorry for the rant, everyone! This is what happens when I think I’ve found my type of people online. Hahah
Oh come on. Moe is pretty, that's very true. But she has many more qualities that make her a beautiful human being, woman, wife and a mother. These are the qualities that make the whole, not the prettiness.
It was funny how they laughed about Moe saying "you can get married as many times as you want, it's just a piece of paper" but now after watching the video(chanel was called Kuden I believe?) about her previous husband and life before Moto, I understand why she would say that. She mentioned in the video that after her first husband died, she felt like she couldn't get married again, but Moto changed her outlook on life. I'm glad she was able to move on and find happiness with Moto; everyone else has commented this already, but they complete eachother and their personalities compliment each other so well. I'm so glad that you feel happy and free now, Moe! ❤
I started watching your channel from the very first day you started it, when I was pregnant with my first baby (I now have 2). My little son and I look forward to your videos every Saturday and they have brought me so much happiness. My son has grown up watching Sutan and he runs to get the tv remote when I ask him ‘Do you want to see Sutan?’ 💜 Thank you for all of your hard work Moe.
@@AllShallOBEY I’m disappointed that I clicked on my notifications on my post to see this creepy comment from you. It’s made me feel uncomfortable and scared and I can only imagine how upset it would make Moe feel. 💔
Also after being together for so many years, they are still like good friends, they talk about everything and laugh at each other - the ultimate marriage that everyone shall strive for
23:41 perspectives of a husband about marriage. I really love how you put it about “… see something nice together because we live only once” it is so good and romantic. thank you again for being my inspiration, because i am still a young man and also have not married yet.
I think is good to have continue open communication even if is about business matters… some couples don’t talk anymore and playing with their phones or just arguing most of the time
I really enjoyed this conversational Q&A! You and Moto-san are so authentically yourselves and it’s so refreshing to see. I especially love your views on marriage and even mentioning mental health! Sutan has such lovely parents. You’re both setting wonderful examples that I’m sure she will grow up to be as thoughtful as you both are. Thank you so much for sharing 🥰
Love you both so much. You both are wonderful parents. Many times over Moto has shown Sutan how she should be treated by her husband. I wish you all the luck and love in the world. Thank you for sharing with me. Moto, (wedding Ring)
I will get in a plane, travel the long trip to Japan, just to be part of an event with Kimono Mom Tourism. That would be an amazing experience. You wondered what Sutan will think watching these videos when she is older. Here is what I think she will think.. She will remember the laughs while cooking. Making birthday cakes with Moto. She will remember never to make mochi from scratch on a hot day. She will remember and appreciate the long trip you made so she could run to Moto at the train station and she will remember how you rushed her under a table during the earthquake to protect her. She will take all of those things and one day, do all of those with a child of her own. She will make you proud
Sounds like Moto and Moe have both become "food rangers" in their own ways. The video was a warm reminder of where they they came from and where they're going. It will be interesting to see how their business plans evolve over the next few years. 🤔
They flow so well together. You can see they were meant for each other. ❤️ That absolute silence and “to cherish.” And they both started laughing was too good. 😆 Major props to you both for doing this video! 🙌🏼
I laughed at how Moto mimicked your "you can get married as many times as you want" 🤣🤣🤣 You guys are so cute!! I really enjoyed this! Always looking forward to your videos! Cheering for you guys!
Looking at the way Moe looks at Moto when he talks about why he want to build a family with her, I realize she provide him a true love. It’s the most precious thing in a marriage. Thank you guys so much for making this video ^^
You may not have a degree but i think you are smarter than most who have. You also are nice and so pretty with a husband who is so handsome and loving and kind. Your kid is so lovable too. Girl, you got it all.
I love how you answered question 2😭 I am about to be 27 next month and I feel like I have accomplished NOTHING in life. I spent most of my 20's taking care of my parents until I moved in with my husband and got married. I still do a LOT for my parents, but I wasn't financially bound to them as I was before, so now that I have the option to do what would make me happy in life I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT IS!😭 I love my husband, he's so supportive and tells me anything I want to do he believes I can achieve it, but I don't know what that something should be! I don't even know where to start! I feel like I am so behind in the game. i know things you see on social media aren't all 100% real, but I can't help but to compare and contrast myself to people in my age range who has so much more accomplished than me. Like I don't even have a career I love to work in it! That's how behind I feel😞 I wish I can rewind time to when I was 18 and ambitious.
What is rhe problem about be 27? You are just starting life. Every day in this world a 72 years old wake up and realize "Fuck you all. From today I'm starting playing violin!!!!". Everu time I encounter an aged person he/she says to me "just be sure of doing what you want. If you are not sure of what it is.... do things at random. It usually works!!!!"
Oh my God! You are only 27! Don’t worry 😉 You will look back at this time in the future and understand that was where you were supposed to be in life and you will feel deeply satisfied that you did your best for your parents. So many of us wait and wait for inspiration and sometimes it comes but most people just kind of stumble into stuff that eventually gives them more satisfaction. Just getting out there and trying things is enough, we may not really like what we are doing MOST of the time but as long as you’re out there doing stuff, one thing leads to another, you may be in one job or role for a very short time and then move to another and that’s ok. You are a kind and caring person, it will all work out for you the way you really want but only when you get yourself out there !
You both give each other time and space to express yourselves. And you do it in such an open and honest way. The respect and love is so apparent and heart-warming! Live long and prosper!
I just recently stumbled upon your channel, due to a friend of mine, still stationed near Kobe, who recommended it. I am a 54 year old, disabled military veteran, who was diagnosed with PTSD, MST and (recently) TBI. I found it completely refreshing that both you and your husband were willing to discuss how things have changed, over the recent decades, about how to help others (and yourselves) try to deal with mental health issues. I know it wasn’t a very long discussion but it was one which has helped me to realize that we now live in a time, where it’s ‘alright to be vulnerable and help each other, instead of keeping it all inside trying to always be strong. I also appreciate that you found a way to deal with your postpartum by making videos on You Tube and sharing bits of your lives, with all the rest of us. Trust me, doing this takes strength many of us don’t really have. It makes me feel that there are others, who go through the same struggles daily and I am not alone. As for c19 ever lifting; don’t know when this will take place or if I will ever return to Japan but when you put out your first cook book, I will be first, in the pre-order line to purchase it. As always; thank for sharing a bit of your world with all of us. Blessings and greetings from Tampa, Florida. 🥰😇
Thank you for opening up your life for us. It's really been great listening and watching you and your family grow. Please continue to shine in Kimono Mom and all you both do.
Awwh so at 20:50 when Moe does her that eye expression I saw Sutan in her in that moment and my heart melted. So sweet 🥰 But with some cheekiness because Sutan is cheeky and I love that lol
I really like Moto's passion to make people happy and his open mind to host events via Moe's channel, also his desire to promote Japan's culture. You know they don't intend to host events for money, they genuinely want to interact with fans and do something relates to Japan's tourism
My admiration for both of you only grows after every video! You’re both inspiring! I honestly feel honored to be able to follow a little bit of your family’s day to day lives. Please keep doing what you’re doing! 💖
I really enjoyed this Q&A. It was nice to get to know you guys a little better. I would love it if you made a cookbook!😀 You could even make a separate one with Sutan featuring easy, kid friendly recipes that kids can make 🥰 I love your channel. Thanks for sharing your culture and your beautiful family 💕
"We all are the main character in our own lives" -but not the world or the universe. I think it's important to keep in mind that eventhough we are the masters of our own ship, the world does not revolve solely on us as an individual and there will always be elements out of our control. As each of us is the protagonist of our own lives, we should not expect others' lives to revolve solely around us and that we should be considerate enough of their lives and happiness as well.
I've always had a temper. My grandmother would tell me to count while I calmed down. But she never told me when to stop counting. So one day I asked her when I should stop. She said, "When you're no longer angry and feeling like telling anyone off." One time I got up to 8,000! 😂
Thank you so much for sharing yourselves with us. I really enjoyed this video and your answers to the questions. I will be 43 this year and I am still learning more about myself and learning new things. I try to teach my daughter to be a life long learner and to keep all possibilities open. I have a master's degree in teaching and worked as a college professor. Then I was a stay at home mom. Now I work at my daughter's school and am doing a job I never thought I would do, and I love it. I have more learning experiences and have acquired more skills than I ever thought was possible. You never know where your life will take you but you have to be open to all life experiences and possibilities. Moe and Moto you are an example of life's possibilities and how well you accept and adapt to life's unexpected opportunities. It's aways a joy to watch you and your family. Love and blessings from Illinois. ❤️
Great video! I do think having someone you can be vulnerable with is important. And I do agree mental health is important, and I've only begun to realize that in recent years. I'm glad Moto-san has been a great pillar to you, Moe. And I'm glad you can help him as much as he's there for you.
I like how Moe-san and Moto-san can both be genuine with their feelings even in front of the camera--especially that part where they told each other "You have something on your teeth" and it was no big deal cleaning it right then and there with a tissue 😊 There's something very authentic and unassuming about the two of you! Wishing you both the best in your family life and career plans🥰
Thank you for being SO OPEN about your marriage and struggles! I always find you so refreshing because it is always honest and unpretentious, be it marriage or parenting.
You two are an amazing team! Continue to grow and prosper together; it's the best gift you can give Sutan-chan (No matter what she says when she's 14)👨👩👧💖💯
I like the idea of Kimono Mom tourism! You could share the best food and nature spots in your area of Japan :) The cookbook idea is great too! I would buy it! I really enjoyed this video. Thank you both for sharing your wisdom with us! I love how different you both are in your thought processes and yet how well you work together. This was so fun to watch!
Wow, Moto, you are so connected to your inner being....I don't know if u call that your soul or spirit. Your Wisdom is amazing and you both are perfect for each other. Not in the sense of perfection, it's the giving room for each one's desires, but at the same time of sharing each other . Amazing relationship is what I see. Beautiful hearts!!! No, not everyone is like this. Thank-you for being a shining example of what compassion and respect is!🙏🙏🙏
I love your videos so much! Getting to see Japan even though I don’t live there because I’m Japanese makes me so happy! There are so little Japanese RUclipsrs I know of so it brings me so much joy watching yours!
In tears. This was so perfect. It's timeless advice. It shows a different kind of real life. A calm and achievable happiness that exists within ourselves, teamwork and respect. I hope you always stay healthy and that you will keep growing and learning and loving together. You guys are doing a great job! I'm a new subscriber but I've been watching your content for a while, it's so encouraging.
Dear Moto and Moe, Thankyou for taking the time to answer some of the hundreds of questions from around the globe. I feel honoured and blessed to have been able to follow the growth of "Kimono Mom's Kitchen". I look forward to your continuing growth with excitement.
I enjoy every video you present. when this came up i was so excited to watch it it might seem strange that i am basically an 18 year old teenager trying to understand how good parenting can be in the future. each video presented provides so much learning about how we can communicate well with children, how to make children become good listeners. Sutan is very adorable and cute. Moe and Moto are the parents every child wants. how you show the meaning of love broadly and deeply means a lot. I hope in the future I can meet someone who can be a good friend, father, husband to me and I hope in the future I will be blessed with good children. If you read my comments, once again I want to thank you for the video you have presented.
My Fridays don't really begin until Tales Along The Way has posted a video. My Sundays are made-up of a ' patch quilt ' of videos from all around the world. Alone ( from Korea ) and Camper Vibes ( from Britain ) are the two musts for it to FEEL like Sunday to me. But Saturday.....Saturday is home to the only video I look forward to: Kimono Mom. So thank you Mo and Moto for taking time out to answer our questions .It has been fascinating.
I don’t know why but this video made me cry. We are a childless couple of 17 years and watching Sutan has always made me happy. I see your love for each other and I am happy that Sutan is in a very happy and loving home. Keep up the good vibes and wonderful videos, Moe! You will never know the extent of joy and happiness you share to those who need it most!
Oooh🥺🫂 I hope you guys keep the strength to love yourself...no worries..love everychild in the world ...kids are the best ...and May the Almighty bless you with a child🤲💚 insha Allah
Wow! This is such a treat to have both Moe San and Moto San talk about their philosophy on life... Love to hear more from both of you, especially Moto San's take on life and experience. Also it's probably the first video here that doesn't feature Sutan at all? Love your work Moe San. Arigato.
I love all your videos, and I love Sutan, but this is one of my favourite. Thank you for sharing your life and showing us just how wonderful Japan and your culture is. These last two years has been tough for me, as it has been for a lot of people. I was lucky to have found your channel from the beginning. I feel like you and your family have helped me get through a lot of tough times. It gives me a lot of joy to see your success grow over the years, and I can't wait to see all the great things you guys will do in the future. ❤️
I just hope that as you get busier and busier you both can find the time like this to be together. It's so important for both of you as well as Sutan. Videos can't replace that time together even though they may be fun to watch.
I don't think your advice for the newly engaged couple was bad at all! I totally understand what you mean by building a foundation because the word "marriage" seems like its big. But at the end of the day, its a contractual agreement. What's really important is the bond and relationship between the two people. However, I also loved Moto's advice about sharing beautiful things together! It was actually very endearing to see the difference in your answers. They do say "opposites attract" afterall ahaha Its great to see different perspectives. Thank you for this wonderful Q&A video ❤️❤️❤️
I'm sure people from both inside and outside Japan would go to a meet and greet. Heck that's when you can announce the cookbook is for sale 😂 Thanks for answering all those questions and yeah having more kids is a huge conversation. I have family members who have one or two children while others have four. As you said whatever happens, happens. For now, you're building loving memories with Sutan.
If you ever organize a trip with the idea of discovering Japan through the food, it would be a perfect reason for me to go back. My last Japan adventures were in 2016 and I miss so much. I cannot wait to be able to travel far away again.
It is interesting to hear what happened to Moto's lost credit card and driver's license. I wish people everywhere are this considerate. I admire your approach to your daughter's frustration. "I know you can't. What do you suggest we do?" It gives her autonomy and feels her opinion is respected. . It is a good negotiation tactic that she will carry on in her adult life. The proposal story is sooo funny, ... We all need a Moto in our life. :) Thank you Moe. Your videos bring me joy.
I feel so much of optimism, hope and relief after listening to what you and Moto shared today - as a woman who just got recently divorced (and I've watched the video you shared before on your story), I am starting my life again and watching your video lets me know that everything is going to be alright. Thank you again so much for sharing this, it means so much to me
Thanks for sharing more about your experiences in life! I always saw you as such a naturally good mother, never thought you had gone through post partum depression. I recently had my first child (he’s a month old now!) and it’s reassuring to know that more people feel overwhelmed when caring for their baby. This is the hardest thing I’ve ever done!
It’s amazing to see the two of you are so different in terms of how you answer the questions. I see Moto san as your anchor who keeps everything together. A light house that guides when you are lost at see. Moe san you are very adaptable to things around you and you are also very practical and also a free spirit. You are a perfect match with each other. Thank you for sharing your life with us, your thought, ideas and happiness. Thank you for being a loving space in youtube. Your vlogs help me relax at the same time i learned new things because of your family. I wish your family success, in whatever your hearts put into. Stay healthy, and happy. Much love from the Philippines 🇵🇭.
Love you! The scene at the park was so lovely. I smiled and giggled throughout this video. The engaged couple question: I laughed when you said you can marry many times, and then Moto is so romantic. Meet and greet would be great. I won't be travelling for a few years, but Japan is my next destination. I need to take some language courses first. I took a semester of Japanese about 7 years ago, but when I retired in 2017, have forgotten conversational Japanese. And I have never learned how to read if write symbols. Love how you are combining your talents for a family business. 💖
You guys are soooo funny!! My boyfriend and I see a lot of ourselves in you two. You two are great role models of a couple working together to make a good life together, not just for your child but also as a couple. So nice to see you two laughing and having fun together ❤️
I love the dynamic between you two, being understanding and supporting each other is the key to keep the family happy. I hope to see two together for years to come ^_^
Moe I really look up to you ! I know you're a human being and you're not perfect but for me you're just perfect the way you are and I look up a lot to become an amazing woman like you💜💜
The meet and greet question was interesting and Moto's reaction was wonderful. A lot of vloggers have smaller number meet and greets, something for patreons, or a trip for smaller groups. You have 1.2 million subscribers, many who I am sure would be in Japan. Perhaps to make it doable and to suit both of your food enjoyment, you could have people sign up to a meeting, which can be held in a banquet room, so the numbers can be more manageable. A cookbook by Moe and Sutan would be awesome. What you will leave for Sutan, won't be a cookbook, it will be the amazing way you treat her like a person not a child and your love of her.
Blessed family in such beautiful Hanami time 🌸🌸💖💖. May God give you all long, healthy and happy lives. Moto San is probably the first man in the world to answer us the question of how is it like to be married to a geisha. And it looks like heaven. Such beautiful talented loving wife, adorable daughter, new business... Man, that's a good life 👍😊👏👏
Moe and Moto, I don't usually post comments on any videos I watch but I wanted to thank both of you for posting this video. I'm currently in a situation where I couldn't help but feel negative with all the pressures internally and externally. I felt so lost and pressured yet frustrated at myself. The small pieces of advice you give really have a positive impact on me and I'm sure many others. It's so easy to lose sight of the positive things in life and your family reminds me that it's okay to not always be okay. Sending you and your beautiful family lots of love
I personally love watching thriving families of 3 💓especially because I can totally picture myself being satisfied with just one healthy happy child!😍🤞🏻🐣
Moe and Moto, in addition to the Kimono Mom store I think you should start a Culture and Tourism company! People who want to visit Japan could book their whole trip through your company, and you could organize the hotel, cultural visits, sights to see, where to eat, all of it. I would 1000000% book a trip to Japan if you two were planning the whole itinerary 🇯🇵🗾 ❤️
I find it fascinating how sometimes we come to realizations and think a lot inside our heads, but when we are talking we still find points we never thought about and only discover then.
The greatest blessing in my life is that I have found this partner, Moto😊

Moe+Moto = Ultimate Couple/Parent Goals
They seriously compliment each other. It’s endearing to watch how well they communicate talk to each other.
I hope i can found one that can complement me so well like them❤ even though i dont believe in love haha
Moe as pretty as sakura flower; Moto as strong as tree trunk in the background. That makes them impeccably whole. All the best to you both.

I laughed at how Moto mimicked your "you can get married as many times as you want" 🤣🤣🤣 You guys are so cute!! I really enjoyed this! Always looking forward to your videos! Cheering for you guys!
Looking at the way Moe looks at Moto when he talks about why he want to build a family with her, I realize she provide him a true love. It’s the most precious thing in a marriage.
Thank you guys so much for making this video ^^
You may not have a degree but i think you are smarter than most who have. You also are nice and so pretty with a husband who is so handsome and loving and kind. Your kid is so lovable too. Girl, you got it all.
Thank you for all your hard work posting Kimono Mom videos every week!
Thank you for your support🥰❣️
@@KimonoMom My pleasure!☺ I hope more people notice the new "Thank You" button near the "LIKE" button! 🙏👍
@@mottokittokatto - I hadn’t noticed that, thanks for telling us!
I love how you answered question 2😭 I am about to be 27 next month and I feel like I have accomplished NOTHING in life. I spent most of my 20's taking care of my parents until I moved in with my husband and got married. I still do a LOT for my parents, but I wasn't financially bound to them as I was before, so now that I have the option to do what would make me happy in life I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT IS!😭 I love my husband, he's so supportive and tells me anything I want to do he believes I can achieve it, but I don't know what that something should be! I don't even know where to start! I feel like I am so behind in the game. i know things you see on social media aren't all 100% real, but I can't help but to compare and contrast myself to people in my age range who has so much more accomplished than me. Like I don't even have a career I love to work in it! That's how behind I feel😞 I wish I can rewind time to when I was 18 and ambitious.
Try something. Fail. Succeed but quit anyway this is how to live life
Not sure why we are fixated on age !
What is rhe problem about be 27? You are just starting life. Every day in this world a 72 years old wake up and realize "Fuck you all. From today I'm starting playing violin!!!!". Everu time I encounter an aged person he/she says to me "just be sure of doing what you want. If you are not sure of what it is.... do things at random. It usually works!!!!"
Oh my God! You are only 27! Don’t worry 😉 You will look back at this time in the future and understand that was where you were supposed to be in life and you will feel deeply satisfied that you did your best for your parents. So many of us wait and wait for inspiration and sometimes it comes but most people just kind of stumble into stuff that eventually gives them more satisfaction. Just getting out there and trying things is enough, we may not really like what we are doing MOST of the time but as long as you’re out there doing stuff, one thing leads to another, you may be in one job or role for a very short time and then move to another and that’s ok. You are a kind and caring person, it will all work out for you the way you really want but only when you get yourself out there !
@@chrisegbertky - That’s good solid advice Chris! It’s the only way! 🙏
You both give each other time and space to express yourselves. And you do it in such an open and honest way. The respect and love is so apparent and heart-warming! Live long and prosper!
Perfect comment 👍 And may you live long and prosper too!
I love how you show affection towards each other. It's pure and calming. ❤️❤️❤️
I love how they embraced the question about a meet up with fans. They're so excited to share what Japan has to offer. I love that.
I just recently stumbled upon your channel, due to a friend of mine, still stationed near Kobe, who recommended it. I am a 54 year old, disabled military veteran, who was diagnosed with PTSD, MST and (recently) TBI. I found it completely refreshing that both you and your husband were willing to discuss how things have changed, over the recent decades, about how to help others (and yourselves) try to deal with mental health issues. I know it wasn’t a very long discussion but it was one which has helped me to realize that we now live in a time, where it’s ‘alright to be vulnerable and help each other, instead of keeping it all inside trying to always be strong. I also appreciate that you found a way to deal with your postpartum by making videos on You Tube and sharing bits of your lives, with all the rest of us. Trust me, doing this takes strength many of us don’t really have. It makes me feel that there are others, who go through the same struggles daily and I am not alone. As for c19 ever lifting; don’t know when this will take place or if I will ever return to Japan but when you put out your first cook book, I will be first, in the pre-order line to purchase it. As always; thank for sharing a bit of your world with all of us. Blessings and greetings from Tampa, Florida. 🥰😇
Finally a video with just them 2. I'm happy for you both. You both found your soul mate for life. Love it.
Thank you for opening up your life for us. It's really been great listening and watching you and your family grow. Please continue to shine in Kimono Mom and all you both do.
Awwh so at 20:50 when Moe does her that eye expression I saw Sutan in her in that moment and my heart melted. So sweet 🥰 But with some cheekiness because Sutan is cheeky and I love that lol
I saw it too☺️
me too!
I really like Moto's passion to make people happy and his open mind to host events via Moe's channel, also his desire to promote Japan's culture. You know they don't intend to host events for money, they genuinely want to interact with fans and do something relates to Japan's tourism
My admiration for both of you only grows after every video! You’re both inspiring! I honestly feel honored to be able to follow a little bit of your family’s day to day lives. Please keep doing what you’re doing! 💖
I really enjoyed this Q&A. It was nice to get to know you guys a little better. I would love it if you made a cookbook!😀 You could even make a separate one with Sutan featuring easy, kid friendly recipes that kids can make 🥰 I love your channel. Thanks for sharing your culture and your beautiful family 💕
I think that’s a really good idea!
"We all are the main character in our own lives"
-but not the world or the universe. I think it's important to keep in mind that eventhough we are the masters of our own ship, the world does not revolve solely on us as an individual and there will always be elements out of our control. As each of us is the protagonist of our own lives, we should not expect others' lives to revolve solely around us and that we should be considerate enough of their lives and happiness as well.
yes this is super important! easy to be selfish when you think of yourself as the protagonist. must know when to put others before us!
Thank you for these words. :’)
I've always had a temper. My grandmother would tell me to count while I calmed down. But she never told me when to stop counting. So one day I asked her when I should stop. She said, "When you're no longer angry and feeling like telling anyone off." One time I got up to 8,000! 😂
Thank you so much for sharing yourselves with us. I really enjoyed this video and your answers to the questions. I will be 43 this year and I am still learning more about myself and learning new things. I try to teach my daughter to be a life long learner and to keep all possibilities open. I have a master's degree in teaching and worked as a college professor. Then I was a stay at home mom. Now I work at my daughter's school and am doing a job I never thought I would do, and I love it. I have more learning experiences and have acquired more skills than I ever thought was possible. You never know where your life will take you but you have to be open to all life experiences and possibilities. Moe and Moto you are an example of life's possibilities and how well you accept and adapt to life's unexpected opportunities. It's aways a joy to watch you and your family. Love and blessings from Illinois. ❤️
Great video! I do think having someone you can be vulnerable with is important. And I do agree mental health is important, and I've only begun to realize that in recent years. I'm glad Moto-san has been a great pillar to you, Moe. And I'm glad you can help him as much as he's there for you.
Moe and Moto really complement each other!! Their differences and similarities fit each other like a perfect puzzle 💝
By far the best, most meaningful, grounded and inspiring Q&A content I've ever watched by any RUclipsr.
i hope you guys overcome all the struggles ahead, stay loyal to each other, and moe, from this qna, i found another side of kimono mom
私はあなたをとても愛しています、そして私はスータンを愛しています、あなたがたくさんのビデオを持っていることを願っています、私はあなたを愛しています💗続けてください。
I like how Moe-san and Moto-san can both be genuine with their feelings even in front of the camera--especially that part where they told each other "You have something on your teeth" and it was no big deal cleaning it right then and there with a tissue 😊
There's something very authentic and unassuming about the two of you! Wishing you both the best in your family life and career plans🥰
I really like that Moe ask "should we do this?"
And Moto just firm "lets do this"
You complete each other
YES!!! So good!
Just watching this is giving me healing. I love how Moe and Moto are so real when answering the questions.
Thank you for being SO OPEN about your marriage and struggles! I always find you so refreshing because it is always honest and unpretentious, be it marriage or parenting.
I smiled when the security guard interrupted and said " Please step aside"
Thank you for providing subtitles.
You two are an amazing team! Continue to grow and prosper together; it's the best gift you can give Sutan-chan (No matter what she says when she's 14)👨👩👧💖💯
THANK YOU FOR ALL THE WONDERFUL AND EDUCATIONAL VIDEOS YOU SHARE!
I like the idea of Kimono Mom tourism! You could share the best food and nature spots in your area of Japan :) The cookbook idea is great too! I would buy it! I really enjoyed this video. Thank you both for sharing your wisdom with us! I love how different you both are in your thought processes and yet how well you work together. This was so fun to watch!
Pretty interesting question from Moto and Moe
Being answered from them
I definitely love this family . 🤗❤️
Wow, Moto, you are so connected to your inner being....I don't know if u call that your soul or spirit. Your Wisdom is amazing and you both are perfect for each other. Not in the sense of perfection, it's the giving room for each one's desires, but at the same time of sharing each other . Amazing relationship is what I see. Beautiful hearts!!! No, not everyone is like this. Thank-you for being a shining example of what compassion and respect is!🙏🙏🙏
I love your videos so much! Getting to see Japan even though I don’t live there because I’m Japanese makes me so happy! There are so little Japanese RUclipsrs I know of so it brings me so much joy watching yours!
There is one Japanese vlogger called tzu (something) kitchen - mom in paris. Just thought you might like it 😊
@@dawnforlife thanks I’ll check them out!😄
In tears. This was so perfect. It's timeless advice. It shows a different kind of real life. A calm and achievable happiness that exists within ourselves, teamwork and respect.
I hope you always stay healthy and that you will keep growing and learning and loving together. You guys are doing a great job! I'm a new subscriber but I've been watching your content for a while, it's so encouraging.
The face that Moe makes at 20:51 was just pure Sutan 😄 so cute like mother like daughter lol
I love watching the two of you together. You are strong in different ways. I think that is what makes your relationship so beautiful.
I enjoyed listening to you both. Moto san’s insightful reply on “advice to newly engaged couple” was really touching.
Dear Moto and Moe,
Thankyou for taking the time to answer some of the hundreds of questions from around the globe.
I feel honoured and blessed to have been able to follow the growth of "Kimono Mom's Kitchen".
I look forward to your continuing growth with excitement.
I enjoy every video you present. when this came up i was so excited to watch it it might seem strange that i am basically an 18 year old teenager trying to understand how good parenting can be in the future. each video presented provides so much learning about how we can communicate well with children, how to make children become good listeners. Sutan is very adorable and cute. Moe and Moto are the parents every child wants. how you show the meaning of love broadly and deeply means a lot. I hope in the future I can meet someone who can be a good friend, father, husband to me and I hope in the future I will be blessed with good children. If you read my comments, once again I want to thank you for the video you have presented.
My Fridays don't really begin until Tales Along The Way has posted a video. My Sundays are made-up of a ' patch quilt ' of videos from all around the world. Alone ( from Korea ) and Camper Vibes ( from Britain ) are the two musts for it to FEEL like Sunday to me. But Saturday.....Saturday is home to the only video I look forward to: Kimono Mom. So thank you Mo and Moto for taking time out to answer our questions .It has been fascinating.
the way moto asked what moe thinks straight away after the child question... Beautiful relationship
This video is so heartwarming ❤! Sutan is so lucky to have such wonderful parents.
Moto is a wonderful human being … Moe is so lucky to have him by her side… lovely couple hello Sutan ! Love from England 🏴 in the UK 🇬🇧 ❤️❤️
I don’t know why but this video made me cry. We are a childless couple of 17 years and watching Sutan has always made me happy. I see your love for each other and I am happy that Sutan is in a very happy and loving home. Keep up the good vibes and wonderful videos, Moe! You will never know the extent of joy and happiness you share to those who need it most!
Oooh🥺🫂 I hope you guys keep the strength to love yourself...no worries..love everychild in the world ...kids are the best ...and May the Almighty bless you with a child🤲💚 insha Allah
Wow! This is such a treat to have both Moe San and Moto San talk about their philosophy on life... Love to hear more from both of you, especially Moto San's take on life and experience. Also it's probably the first video here that doesn't feature Sutan at all? Love your work Moe San. Arigato.
I love all your videos, and I love Sutan, but this is one of my favourite. Thank you for sharing your life and showing us just how wonderful Japan and your culture is.
These last two years has been tough for me, as it has been for a lot of people. I was lucky to have found your channel from the beginning. I feel like you and your family have helped me get through a lot of tough times.
It gives me a lot of joy to see your success grow over the years, and I can't wait to see all the great things you guys will do in the future. ❤️
I am very glad see you because you bring joy like the morning rising sun
I just hope that as you get busier and busier you both can find the time like this to be together. It's so important for both of you as well as Sutan. Videos can't replace that time together even though they may be fun to watch.
👍🙏
I don't think your advice for the newly engaged couple was bad at all! I totally understand what you mean by building a foundation because the word "marriage" seems like its big. But at the end of the day, its a contractual agreement. What's really important is the bond and relationship between the two people. However, I also loved Moto's advice about sharing beautiful things together!
It was actually very endearing to see the difference in your answers. They do say "opposites attract" afterall ahaha Its great to see different perspectives. Thank you for this wonderful Q&A video ❤️❤️❤️
this family is the only youtube personality family that should be trending instead of superficial family-esque youtubers fr. I LOVE YOU KIMONO MOM.
This was such a beautiful video showcasing the true bond you two share. Moto is wise beyond his years!
I'm sure people from both inside and outside Japan would go to a meet and greet. Heck that's when you can announce the cookbook is for sale 😂 Thanks for answering all those questions and yeah having more kids is a huge conversation. I have family members who have one or two children while others have four. As you said whatever happens, happens. For now, you're building loving memories with Sutan.
If you ever organize a trip with the idea of discovering Japan through the food, it would be a perfect reason for me to go back. My last Japan adventures were in 2016 and I miss so much. I cannot wait to be able to travel far away again.
It is interesting to hear what happened to Moto's lost credit card and driver's license. I wish people everywhere are this considerate. I admire your approach to your daughter's frustration. "I know you can't. What do you suggest we do?" It gives her autonomy and feels her opinion is respected. . It is a good negotiation tactic that she will carry on in her adult life.
The proposal story is sooo funny, ... We all need a Moto in our life. :)
Thank you Moe. Your videos bring me joy.
I feel so much of optimism, hope and relief after listening to what you and Moto shared today - as a woman who just got recently divorced (and I've watched the video you shared before on your story), I am starting my life again and watching your video lets me know that everything is going to be alright. Thank you again so much for sharing this, it means so much to me
Good luck - and take care of yourself.
Thanks for sharing more about your experiences in life!
I always saw you as such a naturally good mother, never thought you had gone through post partum depression.
I recently had my first child (he’s a month old now!) and it’s reassuring to know that more people feel overwhelmed when caring for their baby. This is the hardest thing I’ve ever done!
It’s amazing to see the two of you are so different in terms of how you answer the questions. I see Moto san as your anchor who keeps everything together. A light house that guides when you are lost at see. Moe san you are very adaptable to things around you and you are also very practical and also a free spirit. You are a perfect match with each other. Thank you for sharing your life with us, your thought, ideas and happiness. Thank you for being a loving space in youtube. Your vlogs help me relax at the same time i learned new things because of your family. I wish your family success, in whatever your hearts put into. Stay healthy, and happy. Much love from the Philippines 🇵🇭.
Love you! The scene at the park was so lovely. I smiled and giggled throughout this video. The engaged couple question: I laughed when you said you can marry many times, and then Moto is so romantic. Meet and greet would be great. I won't be travelling for a few years, but Japan is my next destination. I need to take some language courses first. I took a semester of Japanese about 7 years ago, but when I retired in 2017, have forgotten conversational Japanese. And I have never learned how to read if write symbols. Love how you are combining your talents for a family business. 💖
Lovely comment! Hope you soon make wonderful memories in Japan!
You guys are soooo funny!! My boyfriend and I see a lot of ourselves in you two. You two are great role models of a couple working together to make a good life together, not just for your child but also as a couple. So nice to see you two laughing and having fun together ❤️
I love the dynamic between you two, being understanding and supporting each other is the key to keep the family happy. I hope to see two together for years to come ^_^
Such a loving couple
I love you guys
All the best to both of you
いつもお幸せいですよ
Moe I really look up to you ! I know you're a human being and you're not perfect but for me you're just perfect the way you are and I look up a lot to become an amazing woman like you💜💜
The meet and greet question was interesting and Moto's reaction was wonderful. A lot of vloggers have smaller number meet and greets, something for patreons, or a trip for smaller groups. You have 1.2 million subscribers, many who I am sure would be in Japan. Perhaps to make it doable and to suit both of your food enjoyment, you could have people sign up to a meeting, which can be held in a banquet room, so the numbers can be more manageable.
A cookbook by Moe and Sutan would be awesome. What you will leave for Sutan, won't be a cookbook, it will be the amazing way you treat her like a person not a child and your love of her.
Great comment brclyn! 👍
Blessed family in such beautiful Hanami time 🌸🌸💖💖. May God give you all long, healthy and happy lives. Moto San is probably the first man in the world to answer us the question of how is it like to be married to a geisha. And it looks like heaven. Such beautiful talented loving wife, adorable daughter, new business... Man, that's a good life 👍😊👏👏
Your parenting skills amazes me 😩 I am still young but I'm looking up on you two !
Goals !
26:37 that was a long pause 😂😂
It made me laugh too. The long pause 🤣🤣
Really love to see you two together
"We are all the main character of our lives "- very true and good reminder about a fundamental element in life
素敵なご夫婦で本当に憧れます♡
I love how Moto's answers are so deep and touching! You are a beautiful family!
Moe and Moto, I don't usually post comments on any videos I watch but I wanted to thank both of you for posting this video. I'm currently in a situation where I couldn't help but feel negative with all the pressures internally and externally. I felt so lost and pressured yet frustrated at myself. The small pieces of advice you give really have a positive impact on me and I'm sure many others. It's so easy to lose sight of the positive things in life and your family reminds me that it's okay to not always be okay. Sending you and your beautiful family lots of love
I personally love watching thriving families of 3 💓especially because I can totally picture myself being satisfied with just one healthy happy child!😍🤞🏻🐣
Amo vocês família linda, pra mim vocês são bênçãos de Deus, obrigada por compartilhar seus vídeos conosco e sua casa. Felicidades família linda ♥️🙏😘
Moe and Moto, in addition to the Kimono Mom store I think you should start a Culture and Tourism company! People who want to visit Japan could book their whole trip through your company, and you could organize the hotel, cultural visits, sights to see, where to eat, all of it. I would 1000000% book a trip to Japan if you two were planning the whole itinerary 🇯🇵🗾 ❤️
Seems very aligned with moto 🎉
I find it fascinating how sometimes we come to realizations and think a lot inside our heads, but when we are talking we still find points we never thought about and only discover then.
Lovely couple. Lovely answers. That cute eye roll from Moe was soooo Sutan. I see where sutan gets it from! Blessings to you both and Sutan!
