这个周四是中国最重要的节日：春节。春节是我最喜欢的中国节日。现在我会告诉你我是怎么庆祝春节的。
当我在寄养家庭的时候，有些大人会给我们摔炮。我特喜欢玩摔炮。摔炮跟鞭炮差不多，但是没有鞭炮那么危险。摔炮就像一根烟那么小，然后你就可以摔在地上，然后它就会弄响声了。到了晚上时我寄养哥哥会放真正的鞭炮，然后我会从窗户里面看。那时候的情景很漂亮。我很喜欢春节。
当我在福利院的时候，因为我们不能放鞭炮，我们有时候会吹很大很大的气球，然后等到半夜的时候，我们会把那些吹起来的气球都弄爆了。我们还会看春节联欢晚会，有时候我们会一边看一边吃东西，想糖或零食。我们在大年三十儿凌晨大约两点睡觉，然后下一天的午觉我们都会睡得很香很香的。在大年初一的时候我们是半夜睡觉，下一天的午觉也会睡得香香的。
到了美国的时候，我们妈妈美国人在新年的时候熬不熬夜。妈妈说不。当时我就想：如果我们能熬夜就好了。
现在我在美国。我的父母也会庆祝春节的。我在美国的第一个春节爸爸妈妈给我们一个卡可以买耳环。我们还参加了精英春节的活动。在2013年春节我和Amy在网上看了春节联欢晚会，她好像很喜欢看。今年的春节到挺好的，我们从“北京”（一个商场的名字）买了中国饭菜。昨天我刚刚开始看了春晚。我很喜欢春节。
美国可真好呀！他们还会庆祝中国的节日呢！
When I was living in foster family, some adults would give us crackers. A cracker is similar to a firecracker, but not as dangerous as the firecracker. A cracker is as small as a cigarette. You can throw it on the ground, and it will make sound. At night my foster bother would make the real firework. Then I would look from the window. It was a very beautiful scene. I like LNY very much.
When I was in the orphanage, because we couldn't do fireworks, sometimes we would blow balloons up super big, then at midnight we would pop the balloons. We also would watch a LNY evening festival show; sometimes we would eat candy or a snack. We would be awake until 2am on LNY eve, then next day nap we would sleep very deep. On LNY we didn't sleep until midnight, next day nap we would also sleep very deep.
When I came to America, I asked if America stayed up late on New Year. Mom said no. At that time I thought: I wish we could stay up late- until midnight.
Now I'm in America. My parent will also celebrate LNY. The first LNY mom and dad gave us a Claire's gift card. We also joined some Jing Ying activities for LNY. For 2013 LNY Amy and I watched a LNY evening festival show online; she liked it fine. This year's LNY was pretty good; we bought Chinese food from "Beijing" (A restaurant's name). I like LNY.
American is pretty good. They even will celebrate a Chinese holiday!
