Chuc Mung Nam Moi

Happy Chinese New Year! We happily welcome the Year of the Ox!

As Brian's Mom pointed out, Obama was born in the Year of the Ox. Here is what the Chinese Zodiac had to say about people born in this year:

The Ox is the sign of prosperity through fortitude and hard work. This powerful sign is a born leader, being quite dependable and possessing an innate ability to achieve great things. As one might guess, such people are dependable, calm, and modest. Like their animal namesake, the Ox is unswervingly patient, tireless in their work, and capable of enduring any amount of hardship without complaint.

Now, most of you know, I did not vote. But if I...

  1. ...was Chinese,
  2. ...didn't know anything about any platform,
  3. ...could only go by the description of the character of his Chinese Zodiac sign...

    ...I'd say, I would have voted for Obama.

Very interesting!

No huge Chinese New Year events during these 3 days. However there are some this weekend and at the end of the week that I plan on bringing Michael to!

Enjoy yourselves! Eat Well! And May your year be full of prosperity, health, and happiness!

Love,

Phuong
