We celebrated the Lunar Korean New Year today even though this year it is really on February 14th. Three families were together for this occassion and today just worked the best for everyone. Here are Cole and Noah about to bow to us to show love and respect. Noah is wearing his hanbok. Cole was too shy but appropriately picked out a red shirt. Red is worn traditionally in Korea on that day. He also has the American flag on his shirt which I thought was appropriate considering their dual country history.
Here Noah is bowing and Cole is getting his "bok jumoni" (Korean money bag) ready for treats. They each received some Korean candy, some coins, and a traditional name stamp with their name in Korean.
Cole's favorite phrase lately has been "Two more times!" I love it, he's honest. Let's face it, one more time is just never enough. So this year we will celebrate the new year two more times!
