I have a man's name

So you know how I told you my name is Mao Cheng Yang? 3 Taiwanese laughed when I told them this week and said I had a man's name. Mom! Why did you give me a man's name! ;)

Short version: I think we make people worry sometimes haha

Long Version: We met the sweetest Ama this week! She has the cutest buck teeth. I will send pics next week.

Love you all!

"Little rocks make big story" -chinese proverb

Word of the week: Mao Cheng Yang~ This is my chinese name!!! (yes I finally learned it), and I finally realized what it means. It is ChengGong de Cheng so success! and YangGuan de Yang which is sunshine~! BUT most importantly, the Cheng is also ChengYu de Cheng which means a chinese idioms and I love chinese idioms. Coincidence? I think not.

Short Version: Chinese yes very good fun.

Long version: I was feeling pretty discouraged this week so my companion told me that in TaiDong they had to bike a path with lots of little pebbles and it was super annoying. But if you looked at the big picture, it was a super pretty and intricate path that allowed the Chinese to ride on instead of dirt. I think of it like life- we have little pebbles or trials in our life that helps make us stronger, more intricate and more beautiful :). So that is how our chinese proverb came about- because little pebbles make a big story of LIFE.

Zai Jian for now! Love you all! Wo ai nimen!
