Merry Christmas

The last few weeks have been a flurry of activity, emotions and celebrations.
It is good to be home. It is good to see my family and friends.
Many things are just as I remembered them - and after being abroad for so long, it is very comforting.
I return to Korea in a few weeks, but will first spend Christmas at my Mom's with my family.
We are trying to savor the short time we have together.

I promise there will be more updates once I return to Korea.

Merry Christmas Everyone !

With love
Colleen

I just wanted to update those of you who have been following along.
It turns out that the baby that entered my family's lives a few weeks ago has passed away.
There are reasons for everything and I know there was a reason why this baby was brought into our lives for a short time.
My heart goes out to my sister and Graydon. I love you both and I am so proud of your strength.

It really makes me appreciate how fragile life is. Even though we did not get to meet the baby, it will always be apart of our family and has forever impacted our lives.


It is not length of life, but depth of life. -- Ralph Waldo Emerson
