Sheng ri kuai le! (Happy Birthday!)


It was Takila's "American" birthday so we took her out to dinner to celebrate and then went back to our apartment to open presents and have cookies!   
The Chinese birthday is different every year because it is based on the lunar calendar.  Her birthday is always the 23rd day after the Chinese New Year.  The new year falls on a different date each year, so she celebrates her chinese birthday on a different date each year.  This year for example she will celebrate it on March 4th.  According to our calendar it is always the 23rd day after our new year, which makes it January 23rd........every year!
