Merry Christmas 2018






Dear Family and Friends,

Merry Christmas!  As we reflect on another year, we hope that this note finds you all well and happy.  We are grateful for the influence of our family and friends near and far and think of you often.  The Ding family is pleased to report that we are still living in Washington (marking the longest we have lived anywhere.) 

Jerry is still working hard doing human resources work for Stretch Island Fruit.  Michelle has loved the many family adventures, both local and distant, we have taken.  We’ve had opportunities to travel to Florida, California, British Columbia, and Maine and will be spending Christmas in Edmonton. 

Joshua is almost five and loves life.  He has reached master level at pretend play.  He loves puzzles, races, and building.  In recent months, Henry’s speech has really come together.  It has been so fun to know what’s on his mind especially because he is one of the most observant kids we know. 

We are anxious to discover what 2019 has is store for us, and pray that it is joyful for you as well.

Much love,
Michelle, Jerry, Joshua, and Henry
