BIG NEWS Kind of Day

Life can be monotonous. Not today. In no particular order ---

While perusing facebook last night, we learned


1. One cousin had a baby! (Congratulations, we love the name Mateo!)
2. Another cousin is pregnant! (So happy to hear that Lucy will be a big sister!)
3. Our brother is engaged! (Wow!)


Let me pause on #3 by adding a photo of Uncle Paul & Aunt Hannah:



Finally, we have some news for you, though not as exciting as baby, pregnancy or engagement.

This morning Drew heard that he did not receive the scholarship to Wuhan University's MBA program. Still awaiting the results of the application to Zhong Nan University here in Changsha. Feeling completely at peace, even though we have no job and don't yet know where we are moving in July. Peace.

A final piece of news: Michael is officially walking as of May 27th, at 10 months and one week old. (Titus walked the week of his first birthday.) Mikey waddles happily around the house, enjoying a familiar place but with new perspective!

  2. Trust married to steadfast minds gives birth to perfect peace. So you see Rachael your news is just as exciting as as theirs. I'll be remembering you and Drew. And what could be more fun than Mikey waddling about the room :-). Blessings, Chris Keller

  4. When you say "where you are moving," do you mean out of China?
