春分 Vernal Equinox


中國二十四節氣之一:春分
春分在每年3月20或21日。這一天晝夜相等。北半球大部分地區進入春季的生長階段。

One of the twenty-four solar terms: Vernal Equinox
It is on March 20th or 21st. The date that day and night are the same length. It is the beginning of spring in the Northern Hemisphere.

我們的故事:
上週, 我們很高興看到可愛的黃色、白色和紫色的番紅花在花園裡盛開。它們是在這裡最早盛開的春天花朵。當我們的小女兒看見它們時,她觸摸它們,然後把它們放入口,她說:“花花,花花。” 有一個下午,當她看見許多瓢蟲在窗上爬行時,她興奮地指着它們說胡話: “狄加 狄加 狄加 狄加...” 雖然我們不知道她說甚麼,但是我們肯定地知道春天已經到臨。祝願大家春天快樂!

Our story:
We were so happy to see lovely yellow, white and purple crocuses bloom in our garden last week. These are our first flowers blooming in spring in here. When our little girl saw them, she touched them, then put them in her mouth and said, “fa-fa, fa-fa,” which meant flowers in Cantonese. One afternoon, she was very excited to see many ladybugs crawling on the windows, pointed to them and rambled, “dig-ga dig-ga dig-ga dig-ga…” But we definitely know that spring is here. Happy spring to everyone!
