We’ve been celebrating CNY this week- Culture night at the girls school, Activity Days CNY celebration at home, and our annual celebration with our fun adoption group…

Such a fun night we, the additional culture in our family enriches our lives. It’s great to see Sophie and Sage become proud of their heritage (they had to get to this point), but they have really become more interested with a healthy outlook on where they were born.

Happy Chinese New Year!
