About 10 days after we first moved to East Asia. . . and spoke no Chinese whatsoever . . . this dear sister, LY, came to work for our family. She helped watch Caden, cook and clean. This allowed David and I to meet our company’s requirements of an intense language program. She came to […]
These goodbyes were especially hard, but who knew we would have such good and deep friendships after just 17 months in a city. . . not to mention a city where we didn’t speak their language at all to begin with The Father has been so good! We are so thankful. […]
