Hong bao


Well, always a day late and several dollars short, I made the girls Spring Festival cards today and gave them hong bao with some dollars. They were tickled and Lily informed me she put her last year's hong bao in a time capsule she is making. But they dragged out Jing's, rumpled from wear, and declared they used it as a mat for their plastic animals sometimes, when they were eating. This year's hong bao? Lily stated matter-of-factly they would make great sleeping bags for the plastic animals! Couldn't have thought of a better repurpose than that!

  1. Happy Chinese New Year Jan, Lily and Jing :) I always love how your girls think. Sensibly and bit out of the box too.

  3. Our girls would get along so well. They always see a different use for almost anything we have around the house. I think Josi's going to be a wild inventor or engineer when she grows up.
