Nearly a year's worth of pretty much daily biking, and mom's bike needed some deep fixes. The axle and bearings for the pedals looked like this when it was taken apart.

Biking is so much easier now!

Grace is learning to sew for one of her 12th year challenges. We're working on a pair of shorts.

Well, school work, other 12th year challenges not yet finished (May is coming soon!), language learning (Grace is learning both Malay and Chinese), outside activities like church youth group and a craft club, time with friends, unexpected ministry opportunities....
