I’d like to introduce my daughter.
さて。長女が無事高校を卒業し、大学受験に合格しました。そして4月からはひとり暮らしをしながら大学に通うことになります。昨日妻と長女と三人で部屋の内見を行い、無事に契約が終わりました。来週末には長女は家を出ていきます。
寂しいか...と言われると、大学入学や部屋の手続きに忙殺されていてそれどころじゃなく、まだ実感が沸かないというのが正直なところです。
さて、そんな長女について、先日英語学習の中で長女を紹介するプレゼンテーションを行う機会がありました。今の僕の長女に対する想いを全部込めることが出来たと思っているので、新生活へ旅立つ長女への贈る言葉としたいと思います。

I’d like to introduce my daughter.
There are three points that are important - she is bright and cheerful, she is caring to everyone, and she is a hard worker.
First, she is bright and cheerful. She always laughs a lot and makes everyone laugh. I get messages from her every day, for example, about things that happened in school, funny things that she has experienced, or a funny tweet that she has seen. Sometimes, she sends me over 30 messages a night but I'm happy about that.
Secondly, she is caring to everyone. She especially takes care of other people’s children well. When we hang out together with my friend’s family, she always takes care of my friend's little children and she really enjoys it. And, she was a central figure in her class in high school because she was caring to many of her friends.
Thirdly, she is a hard worker. It has been her dream to work at a nursery since she was a child, and she has made great efforts to achieve that. She has learned to play the piano and she has studied for a long time. As a result, she passed the entrance exam of the university education department.
Finally, I think she has made every effort to make her dreams come true. I am proud of her and I strongly believe that she will make her dreams come true.
This is the end of my presentation.
