Catching up

I've not been keeping up like I should with my little things! 

But you see, life is pretty crazy here! 

Always something going on and happening or needing to be done. 

On Wednesday afternoon, my boss Pam fell on ice out back of

our home here, and broke her arm. She was taken to Beijing

and found that it needed surgery. So thanksgiving day in China,

she was in the operating theater having a rod and screws put in to hold

her shattered arm together.  

Tonight, we had our Thanksgiving meal and cornhole tournament. 

Here are a few #littlethings from the last few days that have made me smile.

Hearing Hector, one of our newest arrivals, call out "Ca-me-la!" when he sees me. 

Finding everything I need to make Pinwheels.

Getting to Skype my family and see them all

before they left for their Thanksgiving festivities. 

Seeing how happy Thomas was to see me when I called. 

Having my new phone arrive! {The not so 'make me smile' little thing

is that the SIM from my current phone does not fit in my new 

one so I have to go tomorrow to get a new SIM before I can even turn this one on!}

Having and entire conversion about important things in life, 

with my friend, Teacher Wang, in Chinese. 

Watching the Ayi's and workers play silly team building games and having actual fun!

Making paper snowflakes and putting them up all over my window and door. 

Playing Christmas music in my room. 

It really doesn't take a lot. I have so much for which to be thankful!

And I am! I am so very thankful.
