Wow! Has it really been 3 weeks since we blogged? Crazy. I would have to say the Beauty and the Beast play at the kids school did us in on top of our regular schedule. After all the shows ended and helping host the cast party I went back to work on a Monday; I was so tired I fell into a deep sleep on the bus!
I was so out of it, when we arrived at the last destination the entire bus emptied out and was reloading, when several people tried to wake me up to get me off the bus! I guess I am becoming more comfortable in China............. maybe too comfortable.
I think we are somewhat recovered and now into another busy stretch. With Thanksgiving coming up, I will be putting on 5 power point presentations for my students and their parents. It is an excellent time to share about who and why we are thankful.
Next week I will also be teaching a new class to Korean and Chinese moms. I am looking forward to deepening relationships with these women and the topics we will be discussing. It seems opportunities are never ending now. Our hope is for energy and stamina to keep talking and building relationships!
The kids had a great time in Beauty and the Beast. It really had such an amazing story of redemption! With songs I had never heard before and deeper understanding of the story line, it was really very moving. Several people were even crying! I think what hit me the most, was how so many of us feel like monsters, and we desperately want forgiveness.
We took two Chinese neighbors 3 times! They absolutely loved it. They provide subtitles in Chinese, so it was fun to take friends.
Wyatt just returned from Shangri La where he went camping with Boy Scouts for 4 days. He really enjoyed it, and had some very interesting stories to tell. They built a very nice play ground for a school there. What a crazy experience and different perspective this boy is getting through Boy Scouts in China.
Many blessings to all of our family and friends. We are truly so grateful for you! Feel the love!
Happy Happy Thanksgiving! We have so much to be Thankful for~
