7 things I love about you. . . 1) You are such a handsome little guy! 2) Your heart is tender to learn about the Word and the Father! 3) You are so friendly! You make friends from all over the world wherever we go (China, Thailand, Malaysia, etc). 4) You are smart and […]
One fun thing about living in a foreign country is you get to celebrate twice and many holidays. One fun extra holiday is called “Children’s Day” and it’s always on 6/1 (I’m a little late I know). They made a big to do over the kids, give them gifts, take off school for that day, […]
Last week, Colt’s class had a special event for all the moms. We were supposed to bring pajamas and a basin for feet washing. . . interesting indeed! It was actually really sweet. The teachers talked to the kids about all their moms do for them and how thankful they should be Then […]
Colt goes to the local school here full-time. He loves it. His Chinese is great, and he has lots of little buddies. Those are the 2 reasons we wanted him to attend local school (language and socialization). I don’t trust for a minute that he understands all that they are teaching him. Plus, even if […]
It’s not too often that we get the chance to spend one-on-one time with 1 of our 3 kids. We had the day off of classes and so did Colt, so we took the opportunity to take him to this indoor playground and then go for some of his fav. foods. It was fun to […]
Colt had a fun day at school where they invited the parents to come help the kids decorate their own cakes. We all took some fruit. . . The kids were able to put some icing on the cake and decorate it with the different fruits. Chinese cake is like a guiltless version of cakes. […]
Our little nature lover got to go on another fun day with Daddy while we were in Thailand. David took him ziplining. . . You had to be 5 to do the course, and welp, Colt was 5! ha! He was nervous on his first run, but loved it from there on out.
I canNOT believe Colt is 6 years old. This past year he has grown up so much! I mean. . . not only has he grown several inches, but his behavior and character have grown too. He is a sweet kid with a good heart. Yes, he stirs up Kylie at times. . . but […]
Here are some pictures one of Colt’s teachers recently gave us. This is pretty special because it’s his kindergarten class pic – and it’s his first Chinese classmates/friends. He has just done great going to this local school. His language ability amazes us, and he has some pretty special little buddies. We are super proud […]
This is Colt and his buddy Li Xi Huan. They are really good friends, and he is a really good kid! I am also good friends with his mom. So this family is really a specific answer for our family!
