Still, she couldn't be more proud. "Going to college, fluent in 🇯🇵, working, performing, raising that cultural IQ! So proud [...]," she praised him, adding that "Foldin' Clothes" was their favorite song. "So while I'm waiting for his laundry to get done, we just gonna snuggle and sing," she said.

Holly wished her son safe travels, reminding him that his family would always be in his heart. The youngster is indeed making waves in Japan's capital city (Tokyo), as has always been his dream, and his future looks promising.
