Spring Time
Our children taught us a fun game; which is a version of Marco/Polo. One person is blind folded and spins 10 times around, then they yell out stop. Once they yell out stop, no one can move from there spot. The the blind folded person walks around trying to find them; but the fun does not end there. Once you find a person, you then have to guess who it is.
The older boys chased each other all over our yard playing tag. The picture above shows Eddy (Guo Xin) (the boy in red) trying to tag Tyler (our youngest son and pictured in the middle), while Jaxin (our eldest son) starts to run in the opposite direction.
Some of our younger children uprooted some flowers and made their own flower garden. (Left to right going clockwise) Zoey (Meng Yu Qing), Noah (Zhang Chen Liang), Jake (Wang Guo Bao), Jaxin (our eldest son), Gene (Wang Zi Ang), Chris (Zhang Guang Zhen).
Our older girls fixed each others hair. Left to right, Sarah (Ye Meng Jia), Debbie (Guo Qian), Emma (Wang Zi Yi).
Sarah (Ye Meng Jia) wanted to relax by reading a good book.
Before the grass started to grow, we went out into our yard and started cleaning all the trash, rocks, dead grass and other things that the cold winter weather brought into our yard. We usually do not have our children do too many chores because of their extremely hard school schedule; they start studying at 6 in the morning and sometimes dont stop until 8 at night. The children really enjoyed working together and had a feeling of accomplishment at the end of the day.
Above is a picture of PingYu city and all the different villages from where our children came from. This map is in our office with a small picture of each child on it showing them where they came from. Pingyu has over 800,000 people; with over 1000 registered orphaned children. In the year we have lived here in Pingyu, we have searched out and interviewed over 70 orphaned children, with the hopes to find children who were in the most need of our help. We are so grateful for your help in reaching out and making a difference in this city. We thank God for your continued prayer and financial support; with it we have been able to reach out to give hope to 21 children.
This is a picture of some land where we want to build our future home at. If you are interested in giving to our Building Funding please go to our Donation link and mark your donation as Building Funding.
