"No, let me," said Taro. But Natsu said, "No, no, I will carry him myself. But you may come with me, if you want to, and see your Mother." So Taro and Take and their Father all tiptoed quietly into the Mother's room, and sat down on the floor beside her bed. They sat on the floor because everybody sits on the floor in Japan.

There are more than a hundred of them. They are found on all four floors. The Arizona sunshine generously enters each one at some hour of the day.
