Temple of Lit

We're off this morning to the Temple of Literature with another WC family. Chicken Boy will be making an appearance, no doubt. We decided that if Brad is Chicken Boy, then Zeke is Chicken Little. Ha ha ha ha! I woke up this morning and thought, "Two mornings from now, we will wake up and Zeke will be in his little crib in our room." WOW! It's amazing! Brad had a bit of a rough night (though I was apparently in a coma and didn't hear any of it) so prayers for his tummy. My stomach feels better today.

The time zone debate had me laughing this morning. Brad and I have adapted a schtick by comedian Hugh Fink about time zones. It goes something like this:
"It's 9AM here. What time is it there?"
"It's 2008 here. What year is it there?"
"It's the industrial revolution here. What is it - the Renaissance there?"

So, the simplest way to remember the time difference for our friends in the Central Time Zone is that Vietnam is 12 hours ahead (if it's noon there, it's midnight here). All the other time zones can figure it out based on the Central Time Zone. (Crystal, great explanation...thanks for that!) Here's the important thing to remember: When you're going to bed Thursday, we're getting up Friday and going to Lang Son. We will get Zeke while you are in bed. So, you might say a prayer for us and everyone else before you hit the hay Thursday night. We hope to have at least a photo of the THREE of us posted when you wake up Friday morning. If not, just keep checking...we'll get there! WOW!! How will we ever sleep tonight?!?!

Oh yeah...and Brad installed a clock on the blog that shows Vietnam time. Enjoy!
