Happy New Year!!!

Happy New Year, everyone!!  In Korea, New Year’s is not as big as the lunar New Year but every year, my home, Myeong Jin Home celebrates it by doing a traditional bowing to our director.

It’s been a long time since I have updated my blog~

Since I got a new camera from Jimmy, one of our interns, I’m going to try to learn and take good quality pictures~ New year, new resolution!!

 

The children who are wearing Korean traditional clothes with our director~

Here is Tae Yang, receiving new year’s money from our director.  Each person will come and bow to the director and that person receive a blessing word from the director along with an envelope with money.

Geun Young and Yun Kyung keeping our director company~We also receive a box of goodies~

 

Mijin is posing for the picture but Jinju is being picture shy.

 

But when I asked Jinju to take a picture with me, she gladly took it with me.

 

I love it when the older kids take care of the younger ones.   Chi Young and Da Bin~

Ho Hyun (15 month old) and Hee Gun~ Hee Gun loves kids! Whenever I see him, he is always has a baby in his arm!

 

Da Un and Yoon Jung with their victories~

 

 

It was also Sun Hong’s (the boy in the middle) birthday!!  Happy Birthday!!

Hye Jin and Jo Jo~  Jo Jo graduated from the home last year.  It was her first time coming back for New Year’s!

 

Sung Yun~ She grew so much!  She will be going into fifth grade!! She was only a preschooler when I first came!!

Happy New Year!!
