Chinese New Year Continued

Sweet Asian Princess
Chinese New Year continues at the Schroeder home! We have had lots of little things since the holiday began on January 23rd. It has one more week to go, and we will cap it off by visiting the Chinese Gardens in Portland next weekend. They will have lots of crafts, music, a lion dance, and many Chinese dancers.

Over the past few days Emily has worn her Chinese hat, received some stickers, a drum toy, a fan, some craft toys that she can color of the Chinese zodiac characters, a card from mommy, and her favorite so far...flavored/colored fortune cookies!!! Yummy!!!

Mommy still has a few more surprises up her sleeve before the holiday ends!

We would've gone to downtown Vancouver today to see lots of fun things for Chinese New Year at the library, including a lion dance...but...Emily is still fighting off this very bad cold!!! We spent only 20  minutes at the park yesterday until the wee one threw up three times from coughing so much! Today we took it real easy after church. We watched Beauty and the Beast three times, and Emily took a three hour nap! Darn cold...I wish she could just get rid of it!

News on the hearing aids. We have an appointment Tuesday at the ESD 112. They will be the ones to help her until she is 18. Her aids, molds, all hearing tests, appointments will be there from now on. Thank you so much to my new friend Katherine, a fellow parent at Emily's school, whose son has hearing aids as well. She has been a wealth of knowledge. Will give you all updates after Tuesdays appointment! Wish us luck!

Enjoy the pictures of the angel!
Love,
Kathy
