It’s a New Year
We are days away from celebrating Chinese New Year. This is the year of the Pig. Doesn't sound too flattering, yet the Pig is usually associated withwealth and prosperity in the Chinese culture - so they say. Recently, our family travelled to Chiang Mai, Thailand for our Christmas vacation. It was a much needed time... Continue Reading →
Alive in You …
https://youtu.be/HdYYR19wmYM Well it's days away from Christmas, but I really wanted to put some thoughts down. It has been a tumultuous month - emotional roller coaster, a lot of searching, praying, and seeking the Lord for clarity and direction. We'll share with you our future plans and what we think God is doing in... Continue Reading →
Learning to Listen
I tell my grade 4 class - especially a few boys - okay, let's be honest, most of my boys, that listening is a skill. They're not quite at the stage of understanding what this actually means nor do they understand the application of it. It's quite frustrating. Teachers, friends, parents, you know exactly what...

Trusting in Him … again …
About two years ago I applied to International Christian School Hong Kong. Little did I know at that time, we would be here on a 2 year contract. At first, it was a "let's just see what happens" decision. I actually didn't think that I would be hired, nor did it ever cross my mind... Continue Reading →
Typhoon Mangkhut
Hong Kong just endured one of the biggest and severe typhoons ever recorded. In sixty years, Hong Kong has only recorded 15 T10's ... the equivalent of a Category 5 Hurricane. We've only been in Hong Kong just over a year now, and have experienced 2 T10's. This time, it was a little different. Living... Continue Reading →
“It’s just the way it is.”
August 27, 2018. That was a few days ago. For our family worship time, we looked at Psalm 25. We focused primarily on verses 4 and 5. King David writes: "Make me to know your ways, O Lord; teach me your paths. Lead me in your truth and teach me, for you are the God... Continue Reading →
TCP? TCF? Third Culture Parenting / Family?
Recently a good friend of ours here in Hong Kong posted a couple of articles on the topic of TCK's. Some of you may be wondering what this is. We actually didn't even know of this term until last year at some point and then questions and thoughts started to come about. So what does... Continue Reading →
365
365. One year. So much has happened. Blogging consistently is not my forte. Posting pics on Social Media? Well, that’s pretty easy, even our boys are doing it!! It’s hard to imagine that we have now been in Hong Kong for one year. A year ago, we were on the way to the... Continue Reading →
Donuts, Food and Life
Well friends, it definitely has been a while since we last posted anything and to try and catch up would be almost impossible. Our family has settled more in Hong Kong and trying establish some better norms; however, that too poses difficulties. I'll share more in another Blog. Let's talk about Malaysia. Our family took...
