THE YEAR OF THE RAT

Happy Year of the Rat!

We've enjoyed all the festivities and fun.

Ever since the first time I visited Thailand in 2009 I was in love. The people. The culture. The food. The beaches. The attention to detail in everything. I was hooked. I feel so incredibly blessed that I've been able to go back more times than I can count, and even more blessed to have our kids experience this beautiful country.

We came

We beached

We ate

We laughed

We swam

We ate

We made memories

Here are a few of my favorite snapshots...

We also finally came to accept the fact that right now traveling looks a little different for us. We are in the "Resorts Phase" in that we pretty much just stay on the resort the whole time. And finally, I am okay with that. I've learned that it isn't about cramming everything in, but rather spending time together as a family and soaking in the moments of our kids' childhood.

TAE STARTS SCHOOL

Tae started school on Thursday, but since it was a staggered start his official first day with everyone wasn't until Monday. Try explaining that to a two year old. He loved school so much on Thursday he didn't understand why he had to wait until Monday to go.

Our little guy is growing up so fast. He was so happy to "go work with mommy and daddy" and made himself at home in my classroom before Jess took him to his class. Since my students come when it is drop off time Jess drops him off at his class. Jess said he didn't even cry, just gave him a kiss goodbye and walked right in. I know I should be proud and glad we don't have to deal with the separation tears, but man I thought he would at least miss us a little.

He loves his teacher and we love all the updates we get. She sends pictures throughout the day and then also shares a iphoto stream with us. He talks about his friends when we get home and even prayed for some of them the other night. Melt. My. Heart.

Memory Lane...Things About China

Brazil is different than China, for obvious reasons (some good and some bad). Something I find myself missing is the culture shock I had in China. Brazil is very similar to the US, other than language I could live my life just like I would in the States (with the exception of no Target and Chick-Fil-A...sad face).

I was organizing pictures and found some beauts of our amazing time China, I'm glad I have the pictures of evidence. Oh and for the record I really miss my ~~friends~~ China family.
