I have enjoyed getting to know a new special friend during this spring semester. She and her family moved from Malaysia late last fall. They have three sweet children, one in Maddie’s class and two younger. Our families often get together on Sunday afternoons. Megan enjoys playing with the two younger children, Maddie hangs out with her friend, and Sean and I share life together with Sharon and her husband. Living in China as expatriates can be both challenging and rewarding. The biggest rewards come with forming new relationships.
