Good Opportunities

Lately we have had lots of good opportunities to spend time with students and friends around campus. The weather has been nice and comfortable outside, and lots of students are taking a little time to take a break from studying and slow down and visit. That has been really nice. Some students have come over to visit us, or sometimes we will run into someone outside, and we will just sit around out in the shade of a tree, or walk around playing with Phoebe, talking to them. This is one of our favorite aspects of living in China. People often have time to just visit, even sometimes for a really long time. It doesn't have to be scheduled, it just happens. It is nice for Phoebe too we think, to live in a more impromptu, laid-back culture during this time in her life! So many people to make friends with. Lots of time to just play and chat and be. We are really thankful for the opportunity to live in China.
