Are we having company?

In about two hours my family will be receiving some interesting news.


You see, my mom has a dear friend in Japan. They met 30 years ago while Mika was attending my mom’s high school as a foreign exchange student. They have kept in touch for all these years. Mika and her family have come to visit my family on two separate occasions, years apart, during my life time. We love her family like they were our own.

Since the earth quake a couple a weeks ago, fortunately none of the family was harmed, but as you can imagine, there is a lot a stress and fear for all the people living in Japan. Due to the circumstances regarding the nuclear plant, Mika’s family is considering taking up the offer we made to them when the disaster first happened, that being for them to stay with us in the U.S.. They wanted us to give them 24 hours to think it over, before we call them back to hear their decision. So we are all waiting for 8:00 PM.
