[QUOTE="donna723, post: 45285, member: 1883"] Oh, I forgot this one! My daughter was in parochial school for first and second grades, before we moved to Tennessee. This was back in the early 80's when various churches and civic groups "sponsored" families of Vietnamese refugees to give them a start in their new country. The church and school property sat on an entire city block downtown, which included a small house adjacent to the playground of the school. The church was sponsoring a nice Vietnamese family with five small children who lived in this house and their older kids, two adorable little boys, were enrolled in the school. Their names were "Hi" and "Ho". "Hi" was in first grade in my daughters class, "Ho" was in second grade. I will never forget walking past the playground with my daughter one afternoon on our way to the parking lot, and she saw the two little boys on the playground ... waving and grinning at them, she greeted them with, "[i]Hi, Hi! Hi, Ho[/i]!" [/QUOTE]
