Fortunate


We went out to dinner tonight at a Chinese restaurant. Ben Chia Wei's fortune was: ""This year your highest priority will be your family." Zach's fortune was: "A chance meeting with a stranger may soon change your life." I didn't get a fortune. George's fortune had something to do with work. Go figure!
Ben Chia Wei and Zach were awake to take photos of the sunrise this morning. In fact, they were up at 2:15 a.m. We played everything: trains, darts, cards, etc. By 4:30 a.m., they were happily chowing down fried eggs and noodles. George took them to the park at the Reservoir after that and Ben Chia Wei had his first encounter with the curly slide, the monkey bars and a modern day water fountain.
Right now, 8 p.m., they're riding their new bikes back and forth along the deck. We've all had a great day. Zach doesn't want to do anything now without Ben, and vice versa.
We're all still tired. We took naps today and hopefully will get back on U.S. time soon!

  2. Geo, Julie, Zach and Ben, welcome home!!! And, thanks for the updates. What a whirlwind trip that sounded too good to be true: a chance to explore Taipei, intro to foreign health care delivery; fabulous people and you made it to/back on the long plane ride. Rest and know that you are truly blessed with such beautiful children!! Faith
