Everything is the "First" time for Nelson... yes Chinese New Year time!! The tradition of wearing new clothes flows on to Nelson (but not to the parents anymore)..
Nelson gave me a quizzical look when I dressed him up for CNY eve dinner at my parents' house. How come I am the only one that gets dressed up he wondered???
Food was nicely prepared on the dining table... and Nelson wanting to blend in and take part in the festivities!! I have taught him how to greet Popo and Kung Kung when we arrived inorder to get the "Ang Pao".
When Popo gave the Ang Pao to him, he gave a questioning look asking "Mami.. what is this?".. how come its small, thin and has no sounds??? I explained to him that there is money inside to buy toys. He gave me a "ya" sound as if he understood what I was telling him.
The next day we took him into the City to join in the Australia Day celebration. Well... Nelson was a good boy.. and enjoyed carrying the flag and being an Aussie.
