Sorry we have been away from the blog world again! Hope everyone is doing well! We have been super busy and all of us got sick in the last few weeks. Luke got sick first and it came to me (Yu), and a few days later, Michael got it. We prayed a lot last week since Michael was scheduled to preach on Sunday. Thankfully, he felt better on Sunday and was able to preach on “missions” on Sunday. Our favorite topic! Everyone seemed to be encouraged! Praise the Lord!
Here are some of our recent photos:
At Mom and Child Time at our church. It is one of Luke’s (and mommy’s) favorite times of the week. He has made so many friends!
Isn’t he cute?
We participated in the “Relay for Life Cancer Walk” with my dad. He walked for 24 hours straight but we just walked for a little while.
On each paper lantern, there is a handwritten message from the participants. It was such a special time for us as we walked remembering my mom and all our friends who are battling cancer.
On every 3rd Saturday, we lead the children’s program at church. Michael shares a Bible story and Yu leads music. We love these kids!
Everyone wants to hold Luke!
This little guy melts mommy’s heart!
Our pastor’s ordination service. Michael introduced our family in front of 100+ people and did a great job with his Japanese!
Michael with my cousin’s daughter. Since my grandparents moved to our city (from the city that was damaged by tsunami), all the cousins try to get together when everyone is in town so our grandparents can see all of them! It is fun (and loud) when we are all together. Of course, Luke loves being held by everyone!
Look, I can stand!
I can climb, too!
I have two bottom teeth (and top two just broke through)!
We got a care package from Aunt Cathie! Luke couldn’t wait to open the box!
Thank you all for praying for us! We miss you!
