Year of the DRAGON (2012)

With Chinese new years this week, Wesly had fun learning about different animal years and things that the Chinese celebrate. Wesly has ALWAYS been fascinated with China. Remember this?
Wesly wanted to know how to get to China when he was about 3, and at the time he related most things to Dora...well, over the mnts, through the ocean, around Japan, and there is China! chris made this map with powerpoint or something and it was a hit! Travis wanted one too. Wesly always talks about china and he loves Chinese food, well, you get the point. Anyhow, Chinese new years. Wesly memorized part of the order of the animals for the different years and was asking what year all of our family members were born so he could tell us what animal year we were born in, and what it meant. We spent a day making a calendar for him and writing in the years, I should take a picture and post it. It is so cute, he did a GREAT job.

Well, Wesly told us that our new baby sister will be born in the year of the dragon. I suggested that maybe we name her after a dragon we know. Toothless? maybe?

Wesly quickly replied, "what about Whispering Death?"

..........uh.........

(it is the name of another dragon on How to Train a Dragon (it is in the book Hiccup reads))

(we had to hold back laughing hysterically)
