(my observations and the observations of themselves)
Sarah Kim
- Very sweet, adventurous, and sometimes can be very bubbly. She was one of our first friends. She speaks VERY good English. Although she has been homeschooled for 8 years she is having some adjustment issues this year. She needs prayer and encouragement.
Isaac Lee
- He also speaks very good English. Even better than Korean! He is able to express himself in a mature way. (Unlike other students) He would rather study than play. Dad says that I could I could go on and on about what a gifted person he is. He is a big encouragement to us.
Sally
- Very sweet but is struggling with homeschooling. At first she was extremely shy but is adjusting now. Her dad is a Creation Sientist. She also needs prayer and encouragement.
Grace Nim
- Loves to read. Not always the right kind of books. (romance, harry potter, teen, etc.) We have given a list of our favorite classics to her mother. Kind of quiet. Also sweet. Learned English in Australia so she has a very distinct accent.
Kim Esook
- VERY VERY tall for Koreans. He has some learning dissabilitys so Isaac is tutoring him in science. He likes to watch and play basketball and baseball. Loves history and in his speach he played the drums for us. (as you can see in the picture) He dosen't speak very much English but he really tries to study.
Hannah
- The only girl out of three boys. Loves to laugh. In her speech about herself she said that she was "A gift from God to us. Don't you think so?" She also likes to work in her garden.
Daniel Kim (highschool age)
- He is kind of awkward but very funny. He speaks very good English and his dad translates for us.
Daniel Kim (Sarah's brother)
- He is Joe's special friend. He speaks very good English and likes most everything that Joe does. He is 12 or 13 American age. (in korean age, they are at least 1 year older if not 2 depending on their birthday)
Joyce Kim (not in picture as she is middleschool)
- She is 11 I think. She speaks very good English. She is a delightfull girl to talk to. One reason might be that she loves to talk. Her dad is the pastor of our English speaking church service.

This is great, Sarah! What a super glimpse into your new friends. What special people! My children would love an opportunity to be pen pals. Joyce and Daniel Kim, I think, are close to the same ages. Would you just suggest some pen pals for them? You have my email address. . .By the way, Eeny escaped today, but we found her! Finally a victory! 8) Fondly, Beall, for all of us.
Sarah,
You know me well, so just assign me the penpal that you think would fit me. Your blog is looking good!
