Merry Christmas Everyone! We cant believe 2009 is coming to a close already. What a year it was. Moving to Korea, adding a Princess to the family, and Kai being a big 2nd grader. Sash is busy changing baby diapers, being an awesome Mama and feeding at every cry, but she is happy to have a rose bud in the family of 3 thorns. She also has goals of setting a good example for me by getting on an exciting workout plan. Kai just got his blue belt in Tae KwonDo and continues to grow every day. He strives to master every athletic feat he attempts just like his uncle Thayer and can still do a split. Kai is also excelling in the class room. He scored in the top 2 of a recent reading comprehension test his class took. Honor is saying more words every day and caught me off guard just this morning with a very understandable question he asked. He looks up to his big brother so much and mimics everything he does. Any toy that Kai likes, Honor likes too, so it can be a challenge to make sure that Honor finds all his toys to be "cool" enough to play with. He had his first experience with snow today, loves to laugh and is a joy to have brighten our day. Sabryn is growing like a lil weed, up to 12 lbs (2 mo), smiling, wearing size 2 diaper, and sleeping better throughout the night. She loves to be held and kissed by her big brothers.

We have been blessed so much and dont want to forget to give thanks for the health and happiness that God has given us. So often these gifts can be taken for granted when we get so caught up with the ways of this world and the busyness of our lives. Thank you all so much for your love and support and wish you the most as we embark on a new year. We miss you all so much and cant wait to get back to the states later this new year.

Love,

The ROK Paxtons
