Remote Posting

Here I sit, at a kiosk in the O'Hare airport, waiting for my flight home to Shanghai. I had a wonderful treat this weekend, a couple of days in the States, celebrating my dad's 70th birthday. I was able to come alone (bliss... uninterrupted movies and reading time on the plane, for 14 hours!) and surprise my family, walking into my parents' kitchen moments before they left for church. What a fun! It was definitely a gift, this trip. It temporarily shrunk the miles between us (7000 plus, I think) and allowed me to be a part of a milestone occasion for my dad. Now I am anxious to get back to Shanghai, as it will be Scott's birthday when I arrive.

Thanks, Babe, for making this trip happen for me and everyone it touched this weekend. You're the best.
