White day

Have you ever heard about "White day" ? In Korea, there are Valentines' day and White day. As you know, Valaentines' day came from America, the 14th of February. White day was made by Korean people(I think Korean candy company), the 14the of March. The big difference between two day is that Valentines' day is for girl so boy gives some candy or chocolate for girl. White day is for boy so girl prepares candy or chocolate for boy.

Today was JungWoo's birthday. He wanted to have his birthday party because he didn't have it in College Station. He was inviting his new friends in Poly school, new kindergarten.
(Some are born in America). JungWoo's Daddy made invitation card for his son. JungWoo's Mom made Korean sushi and prepared some cookies and fruits. She also made beautiful ballons for his son.
Even though JungWoo got some presents like toys, he think that the best present is celebrations from his lovely friends Julia, Alyssa and Hunter.

Spring is coming

JungWoo made a small snowman in the morning. He was very happy because he had not see any snow in College Station. Everything was white and bright. He kept snowman in the refrigerator. He want to show it to his friends, Julia and her brothers and sister.
All snow melted in the afternoon because of sunlight. We felt that spring is coming. We can see beautiful flowers after a few weeks.

In the beginning of March, we usually don't have snow. But, sometimes we have like this year.
