As I was writing thank you cards, I re-read one from my aunt where she wrote in Chinese: 百年好合

tee: ‘bat leen ho cup’?
a: ‘bat leen ho hup‘
tee: what does that mean?
a: a hundred years of being together
tee: give me another sentence with the word ‘hup’ in it
a: um…
tee: ‘hup an fun’? (which means to sleep)
a: … yes. may you sleep for a hundred years.

100 done, another … 60 or so more to go. Oh boy.
