It was a great holiday, perhaps the last family gathering in a while since Chris, Nicole and Esther are scheduled to move to India late this summer or early fall. We had 4 generations present in a delightful family celebration of Christmas. (thanks to Nicole for the following photos!)
Great Grandma Joy and Esther
Esther, whether she liked it or not, was often the center of adoring attention. Esther with Grandma and Grandpa Lindley
Esther with Aunt Heather, Aunt Elisabeth, and Uncle Brandon in Chinatown.
New Years Day we spent with Nicole's family playing "Yut," a traditional Korean game of chance and strategy.
And, announcing a red-letter New Year Event...
Janis witnessed her first ever, live, Rose Parade! And our youngest daughter Heather accompanied her.
Now, after the holidays are done, and all the family have returned to their homes, comes the routine...or not!
The USCWM/WCIU/FMF community is undergoing some reorganization that may prove to be more significant than many are expecting.
Janis is resuming Restoration Art activities with a full load of class offerings in addition to her usual teaching responsibilities at Judson International School and George Mueller Academy. She is also co-hosting, with a Transform World facilitator, a Los Angeles regional Art consultation January 13th in the Restoration Art studio.
I am continuing to explore the online delivery of WCIU's Masters program. I have declined an opportunity to direct one educational program, but am seriously pursuing another that would lead us to relocating in Delhi, India, within the next year. Additionally, we're exploring other possibilities that would lead to relocating to various diverse locations in Asia.
What was that I said about "routine?"
