Just a quick update on the tailor trip. Sarah's coat turned out beautifully, so we decided to go 
ahead and have coats made for Syd and Katie. We also had two school shirts, two pair of pants made and had her blazer altered for Katie. Everything turned out so nice. Katie loves her pants and now all the old Chinese ladies have stopped coming up to her and grabbing her bare legs while giving me dirty looks. Since all she used to wear were capri length pants, ladies would literally stop Katie and rub her legs and frown at me as if I was abusing Katie by sending her out into the cold with skin showing. I guess I was.

Liu was an immense help. The girls picked out some hats to go with their new coats and I take no credit for any of the choices. We walked by a fish store and Sarah runs up to the tank begging for one. I refuse and as if that's his cue, Mr. Liu disappears. A few minutes later he returns with a bag filled with squirmy little fish. Oh no, not just one, but five beauties. And, not just the little goldfish, but small sunfish size darlings. Just in time because the last of the three turtles we bought back in September died. Don't hold out much hope for these fellas...I'm not much of a fish 
lover....more to come
