Finding a Baby Bird

One day I found a baby bird on the ground. I looked up and saw the nest where it had fallen out of. It was so, so cute.

One of my classmates was with me as we were playing outside. We went and told one of the teachers at school and he helped us carefully put the baby bird back into its nest without touching it. So now the baby bird is back home in its nest safe and sound!

Questions for you, my blog readers:
  1. Have you ever found a baby bird before?
  2. What did you do with the baby bird?

Hatching Gecko Eggs

One day my friends and I were playing in the field across from my house. I saw one tiny little white egg, about the size of a pea. It looked lonely so I took it inside our house and put it inside a bird's nest that my Dad found when we took a trip to Ayutthaya. I put the egg in the nest and then went back outside to play with my friends. I saw another little white egg laying in the dirt, so got it and went back home and put it with the other lonely little egg. I checked on the eggs every day. But then I stopped checking on them. I gave up hope on them hatching. I started saying to myself, "What if they don't hatch?" Guess what?! I looked again one day, and one egg hatched! I looked the next day and both eggs had hatched! And I said to myself, "What if I had thrown the eggs away? What would have happened to the cute baby geckos?" That would have cost the two little baby geckos lives! One lesson I learned was never give up home on small things! Because there's something big inside, even if you don't know it!
For My Blog Readers:
  1. Have you ever wanted to give up?
  2. What lessons have you learned from small things?
  3. What story could you share about a lesson you learned from being patient?

Visiting Klongtan


Today we went to one of the new church plants, and next month it will be three years old! As my sister and I walked to church, she almost stepped on a dog! It was lying on the street. I saw kittens and puppies trying to get out of their cages. One kitten looked just like my cat!

There were boys and girls who attended the morning Bible study. They sang songs for us in English. They learned these English songs during the classes they attend during the week.

After church, on our way home, we walked by the house of one of the students. So we stopped and visited her, and we prayed with her too!

We had a lot of fun there.
