  1. Hey Kathy and Z, cool blogs! I also live in Taiwan and have a young daughter who is Irish and Taiwanese. My wife daughter and I just finished making a Bopomofo app and I wonder if you would be interested in checking it out:

    I have a few others too and a few more on the way. I can also give you promo codes if you are interested. Is there a way of contacting you?
