Happy National Holiday to all our Chinese Friends!!! Hope each of you will have a wonderful week with your family. Please keep walking/jogging/running -- "move it" with your family members.

I've loved hearing from so many of you. I've put a new "category" on my BLOG for Chinese Friends ... here's a place for YOU. If you would like me to post something on this BLOG you can send it to me on e-mail: missbecky@xmission.com -- this will be a good English writing experience. If you send me a picture of yourself, I can post that as well. It will be a nice place to post updates on each of you and your lives as many of you know each other.

At your National Holiday in 2002, Ken and I were in China teaching at Nanjing University, when our sixth grandchild was born -- Savanah Belle Mitchell born on October 2, 2002 in the USA. Her birthday each year reminds me of our wonderful China experience and your Holiday. Savanah turns four-years-old this year -- she is a beautiful, active, loving, and fun child.

To share more of my life with you, I will post more information about my Family, which is very important in my life. The following article about is our first grandchild, Baylor, who is 10 years old now ... a really good boy!!!

We have eight grandchildren, four boys and four girls. One of my favorite things to do with them all is read and I've done that from the time they are born. Because five of our grandchildren live away from us, I've organized Nana's Book Club and I send them stories and books each month to read with their parents. I've posted one of the stories that I've sent them for this month --. "Owen & Mzee" is the story of a remarkable friendship ... scroll down to read it, or click on the category "Reading and Books". Let me know if you like reading this story and I'll post more stories that I share with my grandchildren.

It's great to have so many of you "running" with family members!!! Remember the word FAMILY means Father and Mother I Love You!

Keep "running" ... just 4,600 more miles to go to meet our goal of 7,000 miles!!

LIVE STRONG * MOVE IT * BE HAPPY

Much love,

Miss Becky
