Year of the Dog



We have been talking about Chinese New Year with Ethan recently. So the other day we were riding in the car and he says "I'm Year of the Dragon, right?"

- "Yes," I tell him.

- "What is Annelise?"

- "Year of the Monkey."

- "What are you?"

- "Year of the Pig," I say.

- "You aren't very lucky. " He pauses a minute and looks at James and I in the front seat - "You two are pigs!" (much laughter follows)

He did have fun celebrating Chinese New Year with his little sister. They both got the traditional red envelopes from the staff at the restraunt hosting our dinner. Having 2 New Years' celebrations is not such a bad deal :)
