We had a great time over the past few days with Katherine’s friend Chih-fang, who visited us from San Diego. She brought some cute gifts, gave Claire her first few Chinese lessons, and cooked some delicious dumplings. We also figured out how to automatically convert this blog into Chinese (or 中文請按此) for her family in Taiwan to enjoy more easily. Here’s what Chih-fang had to say about our little girl:
我終於見到可愛的 Claire
漂亮的金髮藍眼寶寶!
她跟爸爸媽媽一樣
漂亮 聰明 脾氣好
希望她能平安長大
健康 快樂!
Of course, we also took a lot of pictures. Click here or on the photo below for a slideshow.

Hello, Katherine, Stu and Claire,
It was so nice to see you all. I am sure Claire is the cutest baby not only on the “block”, but also, on the “earth”! I miss her already.
I learned a lot of American’s ways to raise a baby– much more efficient, I have to say. Thank you for the culture experience. I can not wait to share it with my family in Taiwan.
Love, CF
Now Laura and I are hungry for dumplings!
