Moving Lego Car

Ha's another invention....Lego moving car! Hee was so happy to watch it running around. They were very upset that it was raining outside because they wanted to go to Memorial Park to play, but after Ha got this new invention, they played happily with it.

If you come to our house now, you won't be able to see that Lego car again because Ha took the motor off the car and wanted to make a fan airplane (even though I really don't think that it will work!)

Hee's Thanksgiving Performance

On Tuesday, Hee's school had a Thanksgiving Potluck, so after dropping Hee at school, I rushed home to make a chocolate banana pie and rushed to Ha's school to help out ( I really like to see what kids do at school, so I can talk about what they learn at home) and went home to get the pie and rushed to Hee's school. Luckily, both schools are about 4-5 minutes away from our house, so it's still manageable.

The potluck started at 12pm, but I went there few minutes earlier, and I saw them lined up on the lawn and singing few songs. I didn't know that they were going to sing, but I was glad that I went early, so I didn't miss it. (only 2 songs)

Hee is in Pre-K, so he was in the back, and behind them were the kindergarten kids. I am not tall enough to get the perfect shot, and he's not tall enough to stand out of the crowd, so, try to find him if you can!

Change.Gov

"Change.gov" is the website set up by the Obama new government team in order to hear what we want to say and what suggestions that we want to give to them. Personally, I like the idea that Taiwan government gives out the 消費券 (Shopping coupon) because when President Bush gave out tax rebate, we just put it in the bank, and it couldn't stimulate the economy at all. Instead of putting millions of dollars to support few banks, I felt that shopping coupon can benefit us more.

Stephen also wrote to him the other day to suggest in this difficult time, the government should freeze the property tax for few months after the house purchase in order to encourage home buyers to act immediately. (well, I'm not sure what the exact wordings that he was using.)

If you have any good ideas, don't forget to write to change.gov.

Being Humble

Last night, Hee and Stephen were in the living room, and Ha and I was still finishing up our dinner in the dining room.

(I didn't know what hee and stephen were doing). Stephen: "Hee,你好棒！“
Ｈｅｅ：＂哈哈更棒，他會一些電的東西，我還不會。我比較小，他比較大。”

Stephen came to the dining room to tell Ha what Hee just said about him.

Ha: "他也很棒，每個人都很棒，因為神造每一個人會不同的東西。”

I guess that many adults need to learn from them.

Legos and NASA

These few days, Ha is working on his NASA space shuttle and moon car (I don't know how to call it.) He hasn't finished the project yet, so I will just post a preview:

Thanksgiving Sharing Night

Last night, we went to the Thanksgiving Sharing Night in the church. We've never attended this before in the past few years because every year, we gathered with our families. This year, the family gathering is going to be during the holiday, so we can go to the church meeting.



It was a wonderful meeting, and we heard the different testamonies from many brothers and sisters. 有的是神的意外賞賜，有的是病得醫治，有的是家被燒毀仍然感恩，有的在病中還有喜樂，有的心臟停止卻蒙神保守，有的為生活中的大小事，為活到90歲還能開車感謝神，也有的是為神奇妙的timing或親人得救而做見證。



Hearing of all of these testamonies, I was really touched and joyful and thankful because God never stops Him hands. He did many different things to our beloved brothers and sisters to show us that He IS ALIVE. Even though we don't have that kind of dramatic stories to tell, but I know that God works in our lives, too. He's always with me, and that's one thing that I should give the biggest thanks.



One song was in my heart after last night's meeting:　＜我的救贖者活著＞

讚美之泉：深觸我心專輯



我知道我的救贖者活著，他是永活的主，

當我在深谷迷失時，祂領我走正義路。

我知道我的救贖者活著，他是永活的主，

當我在曠野孤獨時，祂伴我作我的燈。

我知道我的救贖者永遠活著，我必不再憂慮，我要在每一個日夜中，領受祂的豐盛之愛。

我知道我的救贖者永遠活著，我靈不再沉睡，當號角響起的那一天，我將見祂榮光之面，

我的救贖者永遠活著！
