Grateful for Grandma

My kids made clay pandas and a Chinese lantern as she’s cherished their cute creations in the past.

My Po Po passed peacefully at 8am, February 11, 2021. One day before Chinese New Year.

Mom said that she was even thoughtful about when to die. In Chinese superstition, you should not have a joyous family event the same year as death. By passing away on the day she did, my cousin can be married in the coming lunar year. Though I often shrug off superstitions, I appreciated that this highlighted just how thoughtful my grandma was.

Hindsight of 2020

A year unlike any other. Three hundred and sixty six days with reasons of what to be grateful for, reminders of what not to hold tightly to, and recognition of how connected we all are.

Merry Christmas, He is Born!

We skipped several traditions this Christmas because of the coronavirus, but we’re thankful for all that we do have: our family, friends, and faith.

Our celebrations included making short stops at our grandparents and my parents the days before Christmas. On Christmas day, we settled in our pajamas, opened some gifts, played with the gerbils, and enjoyed one of the most peaceful days ever.

November 2020

November 2020: My thankful list -There’s still some pretty leaves hanging on. The YouTube Holderness Family has helped me laugh a bit more this month. It’s nice to see the faces of our dance mates as we dance from home again. I’m so thankful for God’s love that endures forever, and for His comforting peace in difficult times.

How do we teach our kids to wade through the turmoil of this life? Today’s devotional from Jesus Calling for kids by Sarah Young is food for thought.
