Sunday Snapshot: Twin Time
This weekend I headed off to the big city for a quick trip. One of the primary motivating factors was a visit to my Chinese nephews.
These twins are seriously some of the cutest little Chinese boys I’ve ever seen.
Unfortunately, like last time, they were terrified of this foreign face.
There might as well have been an alien, recently disembarked from his space ship, who decided to stop by for a visit.
Being both sick and due for a nap certainly didn’t help either.
Before long, in fact, John fell fast asleep in his grandma’s arms.
Paul, the braver of the two when it comes to strange faces, fought off sleep a little longer.
But smiles were certainly few and far between. I guess I’m just going to need to visit more often!
The trip also offered the opportunity to visit another set of twins. These twins were mere infants when I met them my first year in China. And Friday they walked out by themselves to greet me at the gate of their apartment complex. And I immediately began to ponder where on earth the past six years have gone.
The trip was capped off by some reading time in a cozy little coffee shop. Hot beverages topped by an obscene amount of whipped cream? Absolute perfection on a rainy day.
They are just darling. So glad they got over their fear : ) Beautiful pictures. I just love your style. Gorgeous! Perfect captures of real life : ) LOVE it!
