This date, on a Thursday night, was made possible by
Taide and Maicheng gone out on a late-night birthday party for a little kid.
(No wonder everyone guesses our boys are twins, right? Look at those bros.)
So Drew and I made reservations.
(Fancy! Noted: we have been dating for thirteen years.)
We laughed, and toasted because life is good, God is good.
We have loved our seven years in Changsha and are thankful for everything, everyone.
Thank you! Yes, you reading this! -- for supporting us along the way.
Could not have, could not be here now without your support.
In the next few months we'll be moving to the countryside, adjusting job, gaining a new son.
JAZZED!
counting the graces
thank you Father for
seeing Drewwy so happy, cavalier, a great weight lifted off his shoulders, on our dinner date
Titus and Mike welcomed into neighbor grandparents' garden, to look for a lost toy helicopter
walking home everyday with Titus, listening to his imaginative ideas
walking home everyday with Mike, balancing him on the rail fence
YF asked Auntie Wang to bring her to gathering
video of Reuben Thunder -- soon, soon, we can see him and hug him!
Leslie has been more than a friend and confidant, she has been a sister and aunt
basketball and snacks after school with classmates
Drew's consistently excellent performance reviews at work
wind
breakfast time reading of the Story, and talks; lunchtime reading of novels, looking forward to picking up the story each day
hydrangeas blooming downstairs
bedroom -- feminine, soft and soothing
forbearance extended to each other today when we knew we were all tired and grouchy
