Miscellaneous Moments... by Tiffany

Well we are back in the swing of things again!  All the students have returned from their vacation and school is in its second week!
Our kiddos have been back in school for a month now because we told them they could not have all the Chinese holidays AND the American ones!
Things are moving along well with the adoption process.  Although we still don't have an exact date, we have been given a range of April-May.  We are getting quite excited, realizing that it will be here before we know it!   
It has been a special past few weeks:
Celebrated a traditional  Chinese New Year
with one of our fellow teachers in the college and his family!

 Making Dumplings!

We celebrated Hannah's 13 birthday!
 A day full of many special memories!
~
Purposefully blessing her in some of the ways she is always blessing others!


We got some SNOW!

 
 The campus and the city is quite different during Spring Festival.  Very few people around (compared to normal), but the ones that are here are in "relax mode" as you can see by the pajamas they wear around town -
VERY fluffy, warm pajamas - it is great!

Working on Science Fair Projects!
Ayden is making a telephone and Hannah a telegraph machine.

Ayden has taken up the ukulele and is now able to play along with Deryk on a couple of songs!

 Valentine's Day!  We all planned something special to do for each other!
 
We continue to be so very blessed to be here.  We are thankful beyond our ability to describe!  Praying that God will lead us clearly and use us powerfully as we go about these next few months - our last few months here in China.  We miss you all there in the States and keep you close in prayer~
