Postcards from Buster - China

One of our all-time favorite shows on PBS is Postcards from Buster. This is a spinoff of the Arthur show. On Arthur, the Binky character's family adopted a baby sister from China last season. And this week, on Postcards from Buster, Buster visited China! We were so excited when we saw the commercial, so we set the PC to record it.

Whenever we mention China, Sophie gets all wide-eyed and says "Chiiiinnnnnaaa" in a slow trance-like voice! It's so cute. She often puts her dollies in the stroller, throws a toy purse over her arm, and pushes the stroller around announcing "I GO TO CHINA!!!!" And then we ask, "Who is from China?" and she'll say "E____?" and we answer "NOOOO, E went to China, but who is from China?" She'll get all giggly and say "Fofie!!!" And then we all clap and celebrate.

If you missed the episode, check out your local listing and catch it in re-runs...it's worth it. Of course, it just makes my heart ache to visit again! K and E and I sat here and yelled out, "Been there, done that!" and then sighed and starting dreaming about our next trip - still a few years in the future.

I want to go back too!
I am hoping in about 10 years.

Sophie is doing very well with talking!
