my 2 nephews

We just got back from my brother and sis-in-law's place. Went to see my second nephew, Derek who is abt 2 weeks old. For a new born, he is huge! Derek looks different from his brother, David. Lao3 da4 looks like my bro and lao3 er4 resembles my SIL. David can already start talking and he was trying hard to keep us entertained with the words he knows so far. Besides trying to talk, David was walking round the whole house and climbing all over the place. Throughout the whole time we were there, David hardly sat down for more then 2 min. Only when his father read a book to him did he keep still. Other than that, David was all over the place! So adorable! Well, when our little one comes along in March next year, it will be our turn!

Earlier this morning, Ps SB left for Guangzhou with his family to heed the Lord's call to serve full-time in the mission field. A number of covenanters were at teh airport to send him off. I really respect such fellow believers who heed the Lord's call to give up nearly if not everything to go into full-time ministry. The faith needed is tremendous. I am way way behind that level of faith. Another of our CG members Boon CHee is leaving 2mw for CHina as well and she will be doing social work.

Finally the dumb NIE portal is up! It was down for almost 24hrs. Need to access it to d/l some materials and other stuff. So technology is not fool proof and when it is down, practically everything comes to a standstill.

Got morning prayer mtg with the CG in church at 9am 2mw. Think the rest of the day will be clearing my work and of course going for a run again!

13 days to go to the SBR!
