Back In CM

We are back in Thailand and I am finally updating my blog. Sorry for the long period of silence. I have a new computer which should make it easier to get online.

The flight back was great. We flew Korean straight from Dallas to Seoul and had our own individual TV screens so the 14 hours flew by. We had a 5 hr layover in Seoul where we watched the Olympics and enjoyed hearing the Korean spirit. Then we had a 4 hour flight to CM. We arrived late at night and made it to bed around 2am. Then we all slept until around 8am the next morning. Thankfully we had one day before the children went to school. They didn't know how they were going to make it at school with jetlag but they did just fine and we are all back on the same local time schedule now.

Savy, Noah and Sage had their first rec league basketball game today and they won by one point. It was an exciting game. Savy scored 8 points, Noah scored 4 and Sage didn't score any but it's not because of lack of trying. (he's the smallest guy on the team--they have mixed ages) It was fun to have them all on the same team.

Everyone seems to be enjoying school and their classes. Malia gave a speech on Friday in Core class and the teacher told her she is a natural and should be on TV. You can imagine how encouraging this was for her. We are thrilled about the progress that Sage has made from last yr to this yr. We can see improvements in his memory and his ability to sound out and spell words.

I will send prayer requests soon, but I just wanted you to know we made it back and are settling in. Next week I'll try to take pics at the basketball game.

Blessings!
