We see a pretty sunrise!

This is the view from our 29th floor onto Chengdu

I am sure we have told everyone about the weather in Chengdu. We tend to have hot/humid summers and cold/wet winters. It can be rough because there are many days we go with out ever seeing the sun or even the blue sky. We rarely have big puffy white clouds in the sky. It is always a blanket of thick white/gray clouds hovering over us. It can really wear you down. One thing that has been good is it allows us to appreciate when we do have a beautiful day or when we get to see the sunrise or sunset. When we were in the states, the kids and I would talk about how neat it is to be able to see the clouds take shape or even get to see the the moon and stars at night. One morning this past month, Chris got up and called me down to see the sunrise. We had to take a picture! It is amazing the little things in life that we take for granted. Thank you God for giving this day and every other day you have given us even when the clouds are grey! If anyone is reading this and is in one of those places were you get to see the moon, stars, or sunrise and set, be thankful and embrace the beauty of God and that he gave you the opportunity to see His beauty!
