Vietnamese is not Chinese!

Juliette is very excited to have the chance to get all dressed up for a formal party we will be attending at the Vietnamese Embassy in commemoration of their national holiday. Yesterday she asked me when the “Chinese” party would be and I told her that it was a Vietnamese not Chinese party. To which she responded “whatever”. OK, so she is only 6 years old but and she can’t be expected to know everything but considering her mother’s family history, for some reason I would have believed that my child would be less ignorant than your average Canadian 6 year old. I guess I was wrong. I’ll be sure to try and drill the difference into her head before we show up for the party.
