The Blossom
This is the Blossom in her qipao which I bought last year. It's a little too wide on her now, but it's getting too short also. We want to take her to a photographer to get a professional picture, but first I have to buy some shoes for her.
The Blossom's first word was the Mandarin Chinese word for "head". The true sound is a cross between the first 3 letters of "towel" and "toe". Then she tightens up her mouth and says it in a growly-exorcist-style voice. I think she's trying to imitate her dad's deep voice. The Branch and Blossom have "Head, Shoulders Knees and Toes" in English/Chinese. That's where she learned it from. We just got a library book by the same author. The library book is "Row Row Row Your Boat" but the Blossom still says "Tow" when we open that book because she recognizes the children from "Head..."!

She's beautiful! Is it disrespectful for an american to wear one of those?
She is SO adorable!
I can singer Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes in Swahili. Not that that will EVER be useful in my lifetime, I'm sure. But I can.
Hi Junebee!
She's very cute in her qipao!
Hope your head and shoulders, knees and toes are feeling better these days.
Take care out there!
Your Pal,
Zambo.
How adorable! And how great to be learning Mandarin! (One of my best friends is moving to Shanghai with her 3 kids this month! They're taking a crash course!)
a feathered fan or mum's high heeled shoes will complete the photo...lol She's so adorable..especially in that outfit..
