It amazes me how as life progresses and things change, we constantly learn and grow with it. We just returned to Shanghai from our sixth (seventh for me) visit home to New York since we first moved out here in 2008. After every trip, Daisy and I usually reflect on what we experienced, and each time we learn/see/realize something new. I won’t go into the specifics here, but we’ve learned to appreciate the process and it certainly keeps life exciting. One thing I DID learn is how many people actually read this thing (despite what the number of comments might suggest), so here goes another post.

Even without the growing experience, this trip was easily justifiable with two weddings (congrats Bum and Wendy!) and the birth of Janie’s first cousin, Hayden. It also marked Janie’s first time at the beach, in a pool and lots of quality time with her grandparents, uncles, aunts and friends. And compared to the usual Shanghai summer, the NYC heatwave felt like nothing. We hope to be back yet again during Christmas, but can somebody please do something about those NYC gas prices before we get back?
Great Grandma Gong, Uncle Steven, Great Grandma Yuen
