Maggie attended Chinese Culture Camp this week for the first time ever. She did crafts, learned some Kung Fu, and some Chinese dances. She even wrote her Chinese name using Chinese characters using a calligraphy brush all by herself. All the girls got shirts that say "It's my heritage" on the back. Mag asked what heritage means. I told her that it means your life history or where you come from. She gave me one of her winsome smiles and said, "I am from China." This was a wonderful experience for her. She has already told me that she wants to go next year and has asked if she can take Chinese dance classes this fall. I think she would really like Kung Fu, but I don't know where that is offered.
