Symbolism in the birthday gift...
Yep. I've had these pendants since I bought them the last week we
lived in China...waiting for the right person to give away to. As I was
pondering your birthday I decided to keep one for me and give that one to you.
Twins.
Besides it being Chinese and from China that makes it special,
there's also a funny special meaning to them too: I CAN'T figure out what that word is. The dictionary hasn't been
helpful.
The woman who sold them to me said it was a good meaning... didn't really understand what she said. But I bought them anyway -- with a laugh -- it symbolizes that I'll NEVER master this language! Like I love this pendant, but don't get
it, I'll never really GET the Chinese even though I love them dearly.
Just like you!
I'm not shut up writing too much, I've been teaching more than ever
(this week besides my little 5 star group, I've 3 other groups I'm teaching for that's really unusual!) I'll get the scripts done somehow. I've 2 done, 8 to go!
