Happy Birthday Granny!!!

Yesterday was our one-year anniversary of engagement! It certainly didn't feel like one year. Today the exciting feeling of marrying to my best friend and to the man who I admire in so many ways is still as fresh as it was one year ago. For the people who don't know, David proposed on the traditional Chinese Valentine's Day and neither of us realized it until afterwards.

David and I had dinner with Nathan and Amy at Red Hot Blue last night. Then we headed off to the airport to pick up another new student Jason from HongKong. The flight was one hour late. But we left the airport in half an hour. It took us a while to find Jason's apartment. After we dropped him off, it was 9:30pm already. David was very tired since it was a long day for him. We didn't make it to Debra and Lance's Ukraine game night.

Today is Granny's 93th birthday! Happy Birthday Granny! When David talked to Dad about taking granny over this week, Dad said "I'll have to talk to her a month in advance to clear her busy schedule!" Granny is busy!!! A couple of weeks ago, she went to the hospital because of her racing heart. David called her. She told us how delicious the hospital food was. We never heard anyone liked the hospital food yet. I'm wondering what she is doing today: running between the birthday parties? playing games? walking in the mall? ... Wish we will have her energy when we are that age!

Nathan is having the surgery today. We pray that everything goes well and the cancer will be completely gone after this. David and I are often encouraged by our friends who face these trials in life with poise, faith, and strength. Go Nathan! It will be better.
