By the wonderful Ruth Chan.
P.S. How grief is like butter, and Ruth’s beauty uniform.
As soon as I saw this I was reminded of how Ruth’s work on grief held my hand when I navigated the death of my mother over a year ago. Many blessings to you, Ruth!
Adorable! Happy New Year!
I love this comic, Ruth! I don’t have kids but I can especially relate to the glee (I think) you illustrate in the last panel. “Welp, little baby OBVIOUSLY can’t open these, so I guess I better do it!!” Wishing all a Dragon year of good health and fortune!
Ruth, this is delightful. Congratulations on your wee rabbit!
Ruth Chan’s work makes me feel warm and fuzzy and SEEN! Happy Lunar New Year!
So sweet! Love the sentiments. Happy Lunar New Year!
I love Ruth’s illustrations! I always get homesick around Lunar New Year, especially because I don’t have many Taiwanese friends where I am in Colorado. This year, I cooked some of my favorite dishes that tasted like home… it filled my cup! Sharing in case you’d like to read:

Happy Lunar New Year! <3
Gong xi fa cai!
Ruth’s comics are always so sweet and charming. I love the cheeky bit at the end about having to open her baby’s red envelopes haha. 🥰
Love this and the spin with the zodiac animals!!
I didn’t even notice that! I just thought hm, she decided to make one parent a monkey to match her and one a rat.
Such a sweet post! I didn’t make the connection, either. That might be because I have a bad flu and my brain is in a cranky fog! Lol. I should have realized though, since I am a rat and my husband is a monkey!
This makes my heart glow ❤️
love this one!!
This is so sweet! Wishing everyone a happy lunar new year and good vibes for the year ahead!

My sister has a store on Etsy and a customer (!) sent her a beautiful red envelope with a crisp $5 in it. We’ll remember this for-ever. It’s just such an oh-so-thoughtful of a random act of kindness that totally blew my mind.
