>Hello Everyone!

>Thank you for the email and the list Mama and thank you Lanzer for the email.  Congratulations on the new job!  It sounds great - with lots of nice perks.  Make sure not to let them down - be reliable and everything should be great.

>Now I'll have to respond and write quickly.

>That is great that you'll be able to be with Talsan and Alecia for the sealing.  I automatically thought, we wont be so far away from each other - but then I realized that I'm not in UT anymore.

>I expected that Kwan wouldn't live much longer, and I feel bad for Brooken.  Thank you Brooken for taking care of him though.  I was in a restaurant in Taiwan that had one of those fish in a cup on a shelf by every table - it reminded me of kwan.  There was actually one that looked just like him.  ...

>I didn't get to see Doug, but I talked on the phone with him.  It was very strange.  He said that he would probably be back next year so that I may get to see him then.  I'd prefer that anyway because then I'll be able to speak better Chinese with him - probably better than him too. ...

>I think it's only the Christians here, if anyone, that recognizes Easter as a holiday.  I hope the Easter bunny still visits Burnside Dr. when I get home.

>A couple of quick things I wanted to mention.

>The last thing is nothing really, but I thought it might interest Papa.  There a numerous Eurovans here in Hualien/Taiwan.  Actually, when they picked us up from the airport, the APs drove up in a Eurovan.  But on the back of them here, it says "Caravelle".  Lanzer will appreciate this one:  when we started driving away from the airport with a van full of missionaries, I asked everyone outload, "is anyone here from Kansas?"  Everybody laughed.  Just like Tyrus to make the stupid joke.  I guess everyone had seen the movie though.

>Anyway, I hope everyone is doing great.  I love hearing from you each week...

>I love you all.
