The China dilemma....our son busted his chin open and after experiencing Chinese hospitals every expat knows to try everything possible to keep from having to go.... so we tried bandaids- FAIL.

We tried duct tape - FAIL. 

....so next option.... no medical glue available - we tried super glue and duct tape.....

......looks pretty good......

...... an hour later.....   his chin is gaping open again.  We ended up going to the hospital at 12:00 at night and had the best experience thus far in a Chinese hospital.  He ended the night with 5 stitches in the chin and 3 shots in the rear end for tetanus.

travel

flying in airplanes is becoming a part of normal life for Jeremiah and Annie.

Annie misses everyone back home and sends her love often over skype. "I lu loo nainai"

Dali

Jeremiah and I had a blast kayaking in Erhai lake in Dali. We had some great father-son time on our 5 day retreat.

Water Well!!!

We have our first drilled well in the ground. The next well drilling project to start the end of August. We used water4.org hand well drilling equipment.

Nursery

We recently rounded up the whole team to help out with building a nursery. One of the guys on our team and a local friend helped to finish off what we couldn't in the first day. It's not too big but we're hoping to begin to influence others in the village once they see the success and benefit of it.

We recently celebrated my daughter Annie's birthday. She is a true two year old princess.....most of the time. :) We have been truly blessed.
