Roses for China

Overview

The little guy is a flag fan! When I was less than two years old, I got to know the national flags of 180 countries (generous American fans, please forgive me for praising my son in such a high-profile way [clasp fist]). My favorite is China! So today I took advantage of his lunch break to make national flag steamed buns and watched him look so happy together. It felt so sweet ^_^
