"Train up a child in the way he should go" Proverbs 22:6

Du Xing Ze

Du Qing ze is now eleven years old and in the fifth grade. He is a very clever little guy and has been able to keep up with good grades in spite of having to be out of school twice with a
broken right arm and two more weeks with the mumps. His attitude is awesome. When he couldn't use his right arm he decided he would use the opportunity to learn to use his left
arm and he succeeded. He is always a good boy without any offensive ways - a real little a real sweetheart!

Zhao Jia Li also is a real little sweetheart - here she is sewing a rip in the covers she uses over her coat sleeves. In Zhengzhou and XinMi-everything is full of coal and dust so many girls in particular wear covers over their sleeves so their coats don't get dirty from working at their desks. Jia li is now in grade three.

Boys and Balloons

Balloons and a pump was all that was needed for a great time in creating animals of all sorts.


Always their favorite - they are all becoming quite skilled. Right: Wei Hao peng dribbles as Duan Xi heng guards Jian Guang; then Duan Xi heng makes his shot. Below are Du Xing ze, Wan zhong, Zhen dong, Zhu Hao ran and Zhou ping watching with great interest. Jian guang is becoming so athletic and tall and even strong. He is even taller than He Yan qing. It is so difficult for us to imagine the change in his life. We can hardly remember the extreme sadness that was on his face when he was in the countryside a couple of years ago; he was so under-nourished at that time.

To the left you can see He Yan qing pumps; Mu Yao dong blows his up by himself while Jian Guang fills his balloon and Zhu Hao ran cheerfully begins to form some wonderful creation. It takes so little to satisfy our children. They study so hard all week long any diversion brings relaxation and joy.
