Chinese New Year's Gift


On Chinese New Year's Day (2/19/2015), I gave my exchange student from China a traditional paper ornament of a pair of fish which symbolizes having excess wealth.  I know she would miss home and her family on this major Chinese holiday.  She was grateful and to my surprise, she had a gift for me as well.  It is an ornament of a ceramic panda.  She had asked her relatives in China to ship this over for me.  It's a beautiful gift.  Thank you, Ivy.
