Tanner: Mom, I wish I was Chinese.
Mom: Why do you wish you were Chinese?
Tanner: Well, because they have two new years. They get to have the America New Year and they have the Chinese New Year, and the years are always a different animal. This new years is about a rat. Plus, they have black hair and I like black hair.
Mom: Well, I like your brown hair. It goes good with your eyes.
Tanner: Plus, their writing is a lot of shapes, instead of letters. I think that's cool.
Mom: Well...
Tanner: Oh, and one more thing I like Chinese food. It is better than america food.
Mom: What "america" food is not as good?
Tanner: Well, like tacos, pizza and jello. I mean, I like those foods, but Chinese food is kinda better. Mom, I'm going to have another new years "rez-lution".
Mom: What is that?
Tanner: To be more Chinese
Mom: (chuckle, chuckle)

I'm with Tanner. The Chinese do have a lot of cool things. Except for the year of the rat, can't it be the year of the lamb? I don't want my baby to be a rat.
Seriously, that is so cute... Kids say the darndest things!!!
Well, it proably does't help that 99% of the kids he plays with at ur apartments are chinese!
lol, he is so funny!
I am going to go with Tanner's plan for another New Years. I have not kept to any of my resolutions for this year but if I go with the Chineese New Year I am only a few days behind. Love this story.
I think Mila would like to be Chinese. She told me again today, something like this, "Full Hi Nen Choy." I think it's Happy New Year in Chinese, or at least that is how Mila remembers it.
How cute! Kids are so funny.
That is so cute! I love it. What a fun boy you get to hang out with.
I love Tanner!
