Trip to Bahamas

Hello Everyone!

We’ve just returned from a week of sun, beach, and lots of fun. We thank the Gerlach family and their generosity that had taken us to Nassau, Bahamas (Atlantis) for the past seven days: our time with Nancy and Chris was precious, special, and memorable. Also, Matthew and Hannah enjoyed every single second of the day with Ashley, Adam, and Aaron. The whole week went so fast, that by the time we got hang of the Bahamians’ (Hey Maaan!) lifestyle, we had to pack-up and return home.

Matthew and Hannah spent all day at the pool or riding water slides. Both looked so dark I started wondering if these SPF 70 sun blocks are really effective. It was interesting to see Matthew, who is cautious in nature, jumped into water slides without a concern although some slides looked pretty scary, I think…. He followed Adam and Aaron (Atlantis Pros) and did everything together fearlessly. They slid down on the “Leap of Faith” and tube down on the “Power Tower”. They competed on the “Racer” that I could never seem to beat them. While the boys were doing boys things, Hannah and TJ were spending precious times in the water, as TJ cherished mommy/daughter moments. I also had fun with TJ, tubing together on the “Lazy River Ride” – a man-made river that travels a mile or so – without falling off or being pushed off by TJ. We valued and enjoyed every moment that God allowed us to spend with our loved ones. Moreover, it’s amazing how our loving God protected and guided us throughout the week. After returning home, however, we needed another few days to fully recover from this overseas trip. :)

TJ will be back on chemotherapy treatments Tuesday of this week and for the next two straight weeks. Please pray that these treatments would not bring much pain but rid of all unwanted cells from her body. Our God is All powerful and is All good!!!

In Christ,
Kwang
