Thankful

Hello my friends and family! If you all want to know what I am doing right this second, I am sitting in my room, relieved that I am done with classes for the week, and waiting for Annie to be done with Kindergarten so we can see some of the younger kids who stay in the house! :) I can't believe it has been 2 weeks since I left Oregon!!!  It has felt like I have been here forever. I have made so many great connections and I am not even half way through my trip! It is all from G though and I am so thankful for it too. As I walked home from school today, I was thinking to myself how lucky I am. This has been a dream of mine like FOREVER! I have always wanted to be in China working with the orphans and BAM G is letting me live out my dream. It's funny sometimes to think over how I dreamed of being here. This place has beaten all my expectations!!!!!!!!! :) I LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT! (Sorry, my inner child is coming out) :) Anyways, I am utterly blessed and am again so thankful how G has helped me throughout this trip!!! Sometimes I worry about how and what to teach the kids, but with G on my side, I can do ALLL things. Oh and also, THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR ENDLESS SUPPORT! It helps me to remember that it just isn't me who is in China but all of you who are here with me through your Pr*y*rs and Support! Again, thank you so much for helping me live out my dream. Well got to go play with some kids :) I'll post some pictures when I can...thanks for being patient!! :) Mel
