Missing Friends

This past week we celebrated one year of being back in the states. I can not believe how quickly this year has gone. It seems like yesterday we were in China with our sweet friends. And so, today I was looking through old pictures and came across a few that I thought I would share. We miss our friends terribly and lift them up constantly. Asking that they will know the greatest story ever told. The picture above is of our house helper. She was definitely a fire ball. She was a precious person who was like a part of our family. She loved our children so much. Yes, she did things different than I would have liked at times but I am so thankful for how she served our family in countless ways.
Next up is our sweet sweet students. We had the opportunity to meet these students through teaching them English. Through that many of them would come to our house to visit us and we would have a chance to study many things with them. They were such an important part in our lives. I am so thankful for internet and the ability to keep in touch with them.
This was our sweet friend Cherry. I have posted her picture before. She was a student who we just came to know very well. So thankful for her and her heart!!


This was Sadie's friend Jenny. Jenny's parents lived in Canada and Jenny lived with her grandparents (our neighbors). I was thankful that Sadie had a friend who lived close by.
The last two are of our students again. I guess I am just missing them a lot so therefore you are seeing lots of pictures of them! Please lift them up as they are studying so hard in school. Love these girls and guys!!

So thankful for our time we had overseas. I wouldn't change it for anything. So thankful that Father gave us the opportunity to be Light in a dark land.
