小天使今天不在家！

小天使們今天不在家，一大早就飛出去玩。
太陽不下山不回來，Dada 也拿他們沒辦法。

我的寶貝們又去玩囉！ 這次他們是跟爸爸、媽媽、舅舅、姑姑、姑丈、三位表姊、表舅還有表舅的同學一齊去麗山國家公園去露營。
噯！ 才回來沒四天，他們又出去玩了。

好吧，哪 Dada 只好等他們回來後再跟他們講故事、唱歌、玩 WII、還有玩 Yao-Yao-Ni 囉。

這幾天因為有時差，小寶貝白天晚上都在睡覺。 睡得小臉蛋兒像個小蘋果一樣，紅紅又圓圓的。
有好幾次我都想咬他的小臉蛋兒一囗。
可惜他娘就在旁邊兒，看著小寶貝緊緊的。
要不然，小寶貝的臉就會變傷痕累累囉。

等吧，我只有等。

我的寶貝

我的寶貝們終於從太公、太婆家回來了。

他們在台灣看了好多人。 除了家裡的太公、太婆、舅公、舅婆、姨公、姨婆們、和其它的阿姨和舅舅們外，還見到了國民黨總統後選人馬英九舅舅。

寶貝們在這幾個星期裡長高了一點，也話多了一點。 Jeremiah 會說婆婆罵。 Isaac 學多了一些中文生字，嘴巴甜多了，很會說謝謝。

感謝主，他們平安回來。

4 Weddings And A Home-Going Celebration

In addition to the Home-Going Celebration, there are 4 weddings for me to attend this year. There will be two in September, one in November and one in December. I was told that I’ll be an emcee at one of the couples’ wedding. It should be fun and interesting.

The wedding invitation I received today is giving me a lot of grief and anger. The potential of seeing “him” is giving me a lot of grief. The fact that I am not totally healed after all these years is making me very angry at myself. I know it takes time to heal wounds but isn’t 3 years long enough? It's been challenging so I need to depend on God to get me through this.

I don’t think I can go to this wedding because I know that I'd be an emotional mess if I go.

Got licked

I got licked today by a very sweet, cute, smart and lovely guy today! I treated him some ice cream today and he thanked me by giving me a kiss + a lick on my cheek today. Yup, I got licked by a cute guy today. Oh, the cute little guy is a 4-years-old boy names Joshy, Wayne and Kelly’s son.

心情很差

今天的心情比較差勁，也有一點情緒化。

主要是因為昨天晚上收到了一封 email。 Email 的內容主要是告訢我好友將於九月二日，星期日，結婚。 好友要結婚了，我為他與他的未婚妻都很高興。 心情壞不是因為好友要結婚了，乃是因為我終於要再一次面對幾年沒見的〝他〞了。

我今天心情壞到只想罵人。 一想到我又要見到〝他〞時，心裡面就在那罵粗口。 整天都在那 blib 過來 blib 過去。 真得好難受。 以為自己很堅強、都己經過了三年了、心裡的傷痕都好了。 沒想到，我在自欺欺人，傷痕跟本就沒好。

難到我真的是那嘛差嗎？ 我一定要把〝他〞給放下。 這樣，我才可以從新開始、去愛我應該愛的人。

主啊，求你幫助我，帶我走出這一片汚雲，讓我再見青天。

Cousin Wilson

午森 & 仁杰 – Cousin Wilson and his buddy from college are here for a month long English Language Program at Cal State Sacramento.

I picked them up at SFO on Monday and drove them to their host family’s place at Sacramento. This is Wilson’s first time here and he is having a wonderful time learning everything about US, especially Northern California.

On 4th of July, Joseph and I drove up to Sacramento to hang out with Wilson and his buddy. Since Wilson loves to eat meat, we took them to the ultimate All American Burger place, In-And-Out Burgers for their ultimate experience. Joseph ordered 3 of the 4X4 in Animal plus fries and sodas. I didn't think that they could finish all the food coz there were just so much. Well, they did. They ate everything! But they took their sweet time eating their very first 4X4 in Animal. As I was watching them, for a very brief moment I thought 仁杰吃到快要反白眼了. Man, it was so funny.

Just got a call from Wilson, he and his class visited Chinatown, the Fisherman’s Wharf, The Golden Gate Bridge and etc. But he didn’t have a good day today coz he had lost one of his contacts on the bus coming down here. He also didn't know that they were coming down here so he didn’t have enough batteries for his digital camera. At the end, he didn’t take enough pictures.

I told Wilson that I will take him back to the Fisherman’s Wharf, Chinatown and all those places he’s visited plus other places nearby.

It would be fun… Wilson is so funny. Oh, I used to change his diapers too…. Ha, ha, ha, ha…

Hanging out with friends from LA

Sunday’s worship was awesome! My friend Charlotte and her sister Catherine came to church with me. At the worship, we sang “Amazing Love”, “Here is Love” plus other old hymns. Charlotte was one of many old friends who came up this weekend to attend Susan’s Home-going celebration. After lunch, we visited the de Young Museum in the City. In all, it was such a nice day.

Today, I picked up Wilson and his classmate from SFO. They arrived at around 4:20pm and because Wilson was able to speak pretty good English, they came out at around 4:50pm. It was so good to see Wilson. He’s such a sweetheart and so very cute. Actually, he looks very much like Uncle Andrew when he was young.

After a light dinner, we stopped by the ACM choir practice. Since we got there a bit earlier, Wilson started talking to one of the choir members. By the time we left for Sacramento, Wilson was already exchanging email addresses with the choir member. How fast he can make friends…. It’s funny.

What I learned from Tony….

Love is a spiritual grace. Love is the crowning jewel of the Spirit, the fulfillment of the Law, the perfection of all the Christian graces, the badge of the Christian, and the place to start to measure.

Love is indispensable – without love, we are nothing.
Love personifies Christ. Christian love is an action before feeling.
Love is permanent and it endures.

It's been fun and busy.... I am so tired.... but good because of God's love.
