A Message From Mark

I finally get a chance to post. I know Kristen normally does all of the posting on the blog, but she is giving me a chance to post something finally.

The transition for all of us has been going well as you can tell from the postings. My job has been challenging and has been requiring a lot of time. Kristen and the girls have been very understanding of my scheduale. Things are getting better every day as I continue to get to know the region better. China is a great country and has many things to offer the girls that I could not have given them at home. We are trying to take advantage of all the oppertunities that are being presented to us.

Kristen and the girls have been sick the last several days which has not been good, but it has given us a chance to finally just relax and stay home and be together for awhile. We have not had this chance as a family for a long time since we have been so busy moving and trying to adjust to our new life.

The girls seem to really like it hear and Morgan has made many friends and is back into a routine that is working out well. Molly is growing up so fast it is hard to believe. Every time I come home from a business trip she is bigger and bigger. She is very independant and reminds me of her Aunt Kimmie quite a bit. I have a feeling she is going to be my WILD one. Kristen is settleing in quite well, I have had to start requesting time on her calendar in order to get any time with her. I quess I would rather have it this way than to have her be miserable and want to move home all the time.

Well that is enough for now!
