oh snappy cakes!

i didn't teach my kids that particular slang i made up but i did teach them "oh, snap!" hehe

this past week has been an interesting one.. i'd like to call it a rollercoaster- the weather, teaching, physically, emotionally, spiritually... some days were great, full of sunshine, thriving.. other days this week i felt like a horrible inadequate teacher who wanted to throw up in the rainy weather! haha.. but through the rollercoasters i'm learning to hold on tight to the one who NEVER lets go.. and that the tough times ARE okay and needed to keep me growing and dependent on Him..

the WHOLE poon family is comin' in 2 days to nanchang! they'll get to see first hand what life is like here and meet my wonderful students.. i'm excited and blessed :) i'll probably blog about it after they leave. hehe...

but for now.. pictures. like always. how can i not?

see those random people on the field? yep, they're diligently reading out loud at 6:30AM!
.a day of sunshine!! see the lovers inside the cage? see the people playing basketball? see the blankets and comforters getting aired out every second of sunshine they get?

meet some friends from our international fellowship on sundays! we got some indians, german, and africans representing with some wonderfully made powerpoint slides :)
