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
