I first met Sharon because our daughters, Maggie and Sarah, were good friends.
The boys enjoyed this nostalgic game, Forbidden Bridge.
Yvonne is Sharon's foreign exchange guest from China.
She's leading a group of Chinese students visiting this country for several weeks.
Yvonne is the name she's chosen to be called here; her Chinese name is
tricky for non-Chinese speakers.
It was a treat to meet Yvonne and hear more of her culture. She's about the same age as
Sarah and currently going through the process of getting married. Apparently it's a
multi-stage process. She showed us pictures on her phone. She surprised us with gifts, too -- chopsticks, fan, bookmarks.
