WELCOME BACK!

These past few days have been a great time! =) Talking together, singing together, shopping and all the other things you can think of! It's great that my sister had a weeks break off her studies.
She has been so stressed and tired that this trip is also a sleeping and recouperating time for her. We're going to Burmese school tomorrow to visit the kids and pass out the snacks left over from the Tehs! =)

good times....

The Tehs and Rachel was here for 5 days! =) They taught Character First and they did a great job. We went to two schools, two mountains and just enjoyed each other's fellowship. The kids really enjoyed the night that they held the chalk talk and gave out the bomerangs! The analogy was great, telling us that whatever we do, it'll come back to us. Our speech and our attitudes. Just like the bomerangs. Today they've left and the house is quiet again. Thank you for coming! I'll never forget our supper times!

26+1 = 27!


27 Blessed years together! Dad and mom you both has been an example to me and I'm sure to many others. Time doesn't prove how blisful marriage is, but its the love in the years that prove. I can see the love for Christ in you.
For a little get a way time, we went for a road trip up to the mountains. We let open our truck's windows and took in the fresh air and the scenic view. We had breakfast at a cafe in a flower garden and had a good time! =)

Please Pray...


Nin jar is a sweet boy that has been in Baan nana for less than a year. He has been such a cheerful, bright and active boy. Recently he has lost his parents both to cancer.
Just last week, he went back to his country to study further. I'm sad that he has left, but I'm glad that he wants to pursue to study further. Please pray that he'll keep God close to his heart, and he'll not pick up bad things and he'll know what is right from wrong. Thank you! :)

a "t" but also a cross!


Every time kids do say something funny that you'll want to remember. Yesterday while teaching at Baanana, they just cracked me up.

Me: What letter is this? (* draws a "t"alphabet)
Kids: a cross!!
Me: (started laughing) yes it is, but it's also "t"!

I'm really happy that they have the impression that I like to teach them about Christ.And when they see the cross or "t", it reminds them about Jesus! =)
Seeing them learn is a blessing, being with them is being blessed. Yesterday, Kannah ( a boy that is a little bit slow in learning) could finally remember how to write his name in English! I was so proud of him!

Tissue (literally) has been helping me alot too! Everytime the kids get any squable and they really do kinda fight ( with a real tight fist), I hand out the "magic tissue"
The magic tissue does clear up quite alot of tears! And of course I do talk with the offender.
Teaching this little kids has taught me alot of stuff and I'm happy for that! =)

BNN News: Painting...

The kids were painting the meeting hall! Although I don't quite agree on the colors it is going to be worth it! The kids had their share of fun and I had my share by looking at them.
Previously, the NTU team from Singapore had scrub the walls outside and painted them. Now the kids did the inside of it. ( the walls were painted with mud last time!)
I'm sure this Sunday will have a different atmosphere! =)
