Doreen
Doreen is Jean's co-teacher, and head of the English department in our school. So... this afternoon we had the details of our move all ironed out, down to the day. Then tonight Jenny called us - apparently her in-laws decided to rent the apartment to a niece or something, and didn't bother to tell Jenny and her husband - which is strange, considering it's not theirs! But that's how things work here - the parents rule all!!! Now we're on the hunt for another one - keep us in your thoughts and prayers ok?
But some good news - Chris has been accepted as a teacher at our school, he will be coming to Wuhan at the beginning of January. Isn't that awesome news? For those of you who haven't kept up (LOL), Chris is like my little brother, we've known each other most of our lives. He's from my hometown in BC (Kelowna), and this is his first time traveling on his own. We're all going to be sharing an apartment, so our little one room thing isn't going to do! Anyways, we're so excited to see anyone from home, it keeps us going some days. So far 5 people in total have said they'd visit - Shar, Jason & Tara, Heidi
Sophie
Sophie is Doreen's daughter, and is in my second Grade 4 class. (hopefully), and now Chris is coming. We love you all!!!
This week is a big one for our school. We have a delegation of teachers coming from Sweden, they will be spending the week with us. We will be showing them around the school, around Wuhan, having meetings with them to discuss culture and teaching in China, as well as a banquet or two (possibly). Should be interesting, I'll keep you posted!
For those of you who are enjoying our blog - that's awesome! I just blabber really (I love to talk, I bet that surprised you all😉, but it keeps you all in touch with us. LOL Today I've added photos of those people we talk about all the time - Enjoy! And comment lots, we love hearing from you all...

Hi
I stupidly forgot to add my e-mail to your list and was wondering where all your e-mails were... I decided that I will decide by January if I want to head off to China alone... all by myself... :(... If the offer for visitation still stands. I'm seriously considering it but am really afraid of being by myself. My friend asked me to go teach English in another country with after graduation haha, so maybe I want to see what it's like and watch you or something ;). Anyways, looks like things keep getting more and more interesting for you. Hope the issue with your money is cleared and you can stop worrying about stuff. Bye.- Sarika
