Chinese Word of the Day

Since my hubby and I began our adoption journey we have promised ourselves to learn Chinese. I know this is a task of monumental proportion but it is necessary. I thought it might be a good idea to blog more frequently and include a "Chinese word of the day" to help ourselves learn and encourage anyone who may read this blog and know anything about the language to chime in. So today's word is:

上午
shàngwǔ
"morning"
