Happy Birthdays

Remi and Cokie both had birthdays recently. We found a very authentic Chinese restaurant, not buffet, not take-out-- but a real restaurant. Let's just say half the menu we won't even eat, because it is so authentic! What we did order though was great and it was a lot of fun! This is the owner in the picture, and yes that is a tear in her eye. Remi is from Guangzhou and so is this lady. She had lots of questions for Remi about being an orphan. In a little bit the lady came out with this gift package and told the girls it was for their birthday. The lady also wanted us to know that she has been a Christian since she was 16 y.o. I asked her if her family still in China attended church. I know China is not really free to worship. She said yes, but then said "house" church.






Darby also has a birthday coming up and her Mom made these cupcakes.
