Things they never told us about moving to Thailand with a kid:

Make sure that your child has one yellow shirt and one red shirt in their wardrobes.

The yellow shirt is to wear on the King's birthday in December. The red shirt is for the Lunar New Year. By fluke, I was able to dress her appropriately for both occasion, but I'll have to buy her clothes for next year a little more strategically.

Madeline's school celebrated the Year of the Rat today, and her school yard had been transformed into a magical land of red paper lanterns with a sea of little red shirts running around. It was awesome!

That sounds great - I love the look of paper lanterns.
