Gong Xi Fa Chai!

Wishing everyone a happy and healthy year of the Goat!  Like last year, Chinese New Year in KK is very festive! We had our traditional ShangDong New Year's even dinner with the special dumplings with red dates and coins inside, and fish and meat and vegetable. We went to friends' house for Lion dances and firecrackers and fireworks!

Sisterly love

We really love each other, we really do, when we are not fighting. And when we fight, we would say the meanest things like 'You are stupid', or 'I don't like you', or even 'I wish I never had a sister'. But of cos, we don't mean any of that. We love and protect each other all the time and we help each other out, like, when I want to order something from the restaurant, and am too shy too, Mika is always there to help. And Mika often says 'I love you more than I love Mummy', and she sometimes even calls me 'Mummy' when Mummy is not around.

All we care is that we have each other when we go to a party

 I love dressing up Mika and she loves to be dressed by me

 sharing secrets

 cuddling and rocking

 picking up Zhe Zhe after school 

 Reading books to MuiMui

Mika ordering food for me

Yahama Book 2 perfomance

Today Mika did her Yahama Book 2 performance on 31 January 2015! She played two songs-Honey Bee and French Bandit. 

We 'held' rainbow

 When Mummy goes to visit Mika at Ballet class, so many other friends would come and greet her

  Mummy made Valentine's Day cookies for her love ones-us!

Funny Mika

Tonight at dinner the girls were having an argument and Mika gave in and apologized to bean. And bean was still ignoring her. So I said 'I don't know how and who started the fight but if someone apologies we should put away the proudness and accept the apology'. And Mika said 'yeah, push it down with the noodles'.

*We had spaghetti bolognese  tonight.*

January happenings

Since we got back we had been missing our family in Australia a lot. School has started and now I am in Year 2 and Mika is in the highest class in her school,being the smallest in the year most likely.

Mummy and Daddy's 10th year wedding anniversary

This was Mummy and Daddy's 10th year wedding anniversary and I knew it is a big deal. So I secretly made them a wedding present to surprise them.

More love hearts  

And Mika wasn't so well prepared and seeing all these goodies I made, she had this toy and a diaper in her hands so she put the diaper on this rabbit and gave it as a present. It was a very good laugh, Well done Mimi
