too adorable

Just a quick note while I'm on my lunch break....

I teach kindergarten twice a week, and the kids are as cute as can be. They always babble away to me in Chinese, and I never understand a word. I just smile and nod (occasionally say "bu dong" - don't understand - when it appears they're waiting for a response). Well today we were sitting in a circle playing a very energetic adaptation of duck duck goose and one little boy leans over to me with this huge grin on his face and says "wo xihuan ni". I understand that! It means "I like you" Oh my god, sooooo cute. So I told him I liked him too, then he gave me this fast little kiss on my arm and started giggling. I can't handle how cute that is!!!! It's moments like that that make me so happy to be here.
