Wishes

Wishes

Yesterday we celebrated the beginning of Chinese New Year.  It was really nice.  I feel like I am turning a corner.  I’ve had five continuous days of feeling well!  No nausea or major issues with eating, other than I’m not really hungry.  No major headaches or mouth sores!  I even have a little energy back.  It felt like the perfect time to celebrate a new beginning.  I had a friend come to town and visit and we had a chance to catch up.  It felt like a normal weekend…minus all the Chinese music playing in the house and our surplus of dragon and snake decorations.  While eating our Chinese dinner, we talked about our wishes for the year.  The kids wished that all the Chinese people have a great New Year and that cancer would be gone forever.  I think that’s perfect.  From our family to yours 萬事如意Wànshìrúyì - "May all your wishes be fulfilled."  

Looking on the Bright Side…Coen has also mentioned that he wants to invent medicine that will get rid of cancer forever.  Isn’t that so sweet?  He also wants to invent pajama bottoms that turn from pants to shorts with a touch of a button.  He’s quite ambitious.
The kids with their dragon.  This is what they used when dancing. 
They were occupied for hours!

Enjoying a Chinese dinner.
 
I tried to upload a video of their dancing but wasn't able to.  Your going to have to trust me that is was really cool:)
