Catching up






Weifu celebrated his 11th birthday in June and 3 weeks later Lisa turned 15! What a busy month it has been.

Weilong had his quarterly visit to the endocrinologist and officially weighs 52.8lbs and is 49.8 inches tall. In the last 3 months he has grown 1.5 inches. If he continues to grow at this rate he will grow 6 inches in the next year! Well worth those nightly shots. The doctor took more blood of course and thinks he may need to adjust Weilong's thyroid meds. He may be getting too much which could be one reason he is so thin. They always ask me if he eats well, and the answer is emphatically yes. He eats a whole lot at mealtimes. Not much of a snacker, but he eats, believe me. They all do!

The boys have been going to summer school for the month of June. They are taking English proficiency classes. They don't really want to go, but the extra work will pay off during the regular school year. Weilong is especially having a hard time learning to read. He is also the only one of our children who has an accent. It's a cute little accent, but he wants to loose it.

Summer

I'm just too busy for words this summer. I have pictures of Weifu's bday and of the kids swimming, but I've misplaced the cord that connects my camera to my computer.

All the kids did well in school this year. The boys are starting summer school just for the month of June. They will be taking an English proficiency class. They really resisted the idea of summer school, but thy need it!

I'm trying to redeem the time, make every moment count. They grow up so fast and will never be this young again. But I think God knew what he was doing when he gave babies to YOUNG women....
