Matthew meets Mr. and Mrs. Kong

Today after church, Matthew met Mr. and Mrs. Kong for the first time.
Everyone was happy!
(Mrs. Kong is the children's Chinese language teacher.)

It was SO wonderful hearing Mr. and Mrs. Kong talk with Matthew and to hear them translate his answers!!!

At one point, Matthew told them he was hungry and wanted a hamburger! An orphan who had learned the Chinese word for hamburger???! I'd love to hear the story about his encounter with hamburgers while in China--since we have not had any since he has been Stateside!

He also told Mr. and Mrs. Kong in Chinese: "Daddy is good. Mommy is good." He also understands that the children are his siblings and that he needs to share daddy with them 😉.

As you can see from the picture that there is one more Bollinger who now loves Mr. and Mrs. Kong--or "Uncle" and "Auntie" as Matthew learned to called them today. 💙
