Love eve...Not sure where to start on my comments. <br />Love everything about this post.<br />So how about ... love ya! Grateful for ya! <br />And hoping that after I stuffed the comment boxes at C4C earlier this year, Andrea heard my suggestions to make you a speaker in January!<br />Love & Blessings,<br />KimKimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01158109379150463976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4559196589404180345.post-46969457306459643392012-08-06T22:10:13.257-07:002012-08-06T22:10:13.257-07:00I do not even know where to begin to comment on th...I do not even know where to begin to comment on this post. <br /> <br />I would really rather just hug you, in person . . . but then again I really don't care for the smell of Old Spice. No offense. <br /><br />Happy to hear that your Asian Sensation now has enough grip of the English language to be equipped by their mama's wisdom; be she void of beautiful Asian hair . . . and smelling ever so slightly of Old Spice. :) It's all good!<br /><br />Blessings to you my funny friend~<br /><br />TinaWaitingfaithfullyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08204254697123829209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4559196589404180345.post-71893443868787755832012-08-05T21:17:51.581-07:002012-08-05T21:17:51.581-07:00So I want to know.... what "casual" ans...So I want to know.... what "casual" answers did you come up with? Because I would like to have a reference list when I need them. So far it hasn't been really an issue for us - maybe because we're in Japan and everyone is so used to so many people looking Asian they don't really give a second thought to the fact that this little Asian girl is running around with us. But, anyhow, I would like to prepare Abby as well, I'm just clueless.<br /><br />AND - if you get some good feedback on the longer term mission trips, please do share. James is at Maria's Big House of Hope right now but that one is only eight days - something longer would be awesome!<br /><br />As for your ? on my comments section - I suppose we could end up stateside next summer, but I don't wanna. The coffee, on the other hand, I would love!Our Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04295964980774800599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4559196589404180345.post-31565019772360307072012-08-05T20:39:43.886-07:002012-08-05T20:39:43.886-07:00I'm leaving Thursday for China to bring home o...I'm leaving Thursday for China to bring home our 7 year old son.

One with Teen Missions International (it was ten years ago and I am still in contact with each person on my team) and then two others where I went independently to orphanages in Haiti. I've had friends go with YWAM and I have several friends who head up short term mission teams. I can tell you that it absolutely without a doubt changed my life completely. <br /><br />I went to C4C last year and it was amazing. I'm thinking about going again this year.

Pretty SWEET deal!!! :) <br /><br />Hmmm...don't know what to tell you about blog commenting. I have had people say they can't comment on mine sometimes?<br />I have had a few weird computer comments here and there, but I just delete them, and it has never been a big deal- a once or twice a year thing. ????<br /><br />Always good to have some stock answers for others who are curious.

My son who will be 16 in Dec wants to work there next summer. My daughter (8) went there for camp this year and I can't even tell you how much she learned and how much her faith grew in just one week. Besides that, she had a blast! It is in Oklahoma. I am afraid I sound like an infomercial but it really did impact her that much and her couselor (teen girl) was a large part of that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4559196589404180345.post-60016565987913391372012-08-05T13:12:15.328-07:002012-08-05T13:12:15.328-07:00OK, you are right on with the word verification st...OK, you are right on with the word verification stuff.

We get the adoption question from adults, but everywhere we go (besides church thank goodness), Jonathan gets asked by kids about his prosthetic leg. He has never seemed bothered until the last time.

My daughter is from Shepherd's Field Children's Village (Phillip Hayden Foundation) outside of Beijing, started by American Christian Missionaries. They look for teenage interns throughout the year, especially summer! I went on a short term mission this summer and loved it! You get to work with adorable orphans doing various jobs. Many interns work in the school teaching English to the younger kids. Contact me if you want more info. The website is www.chinaorphans.org. It will change their life! It certainly changed mine!
