A Joyful Return






The youngest Bao brother had a vision. Perhaps he would have a son, born at the tail end of the year of the Tiger but just before the Rabbit. Maybe he would be a strong and powerful boy with just a hint of tenderness.  It is upon this insight, that Exceeding Joy, Uncle Tu's often escaping song bird, decided to return.
