Helping daddy!

Alex did some front yard work this weekends.
Max was very excited!
Following around daddy to find something to help!
Max is very supported!

I got this cute toy set from Ikea!
Perfect ^^
Max worked very hard that day!
Max and I walked around the town and went to the park.
So Alex could finish his job without Max's help! lol

Max wants to join everything whatever we do!

In front of house was very quiet and it was such a beautiful day!
I let Max play in front of our home.
Max was very very happy!!
Max knows how to get to the park from our home~


I want to learn Gardening
I got cool hat for gardening from the Sportsmen warehouse!
I've never lived the house has yard in my life.
This is the first time that I am living with a yard!
I've grown up in the coolest fancy apartment that you don't need to do anything in Korea!
lol
the Apartment in Korea is very different from USA.
You just can't imagine how amazing the apartments are in Korea!
fabulous!

Those comfortable&easy city life style that I've grown up is still inside me sometimes,
even if I've been living in USA for almost 7 years.
People who haven't lived in the city for a long time wouldn't understand..
I sometimes miss the pollutions in the city..
I sometimes miss the busy street pass by lots of people..
I miss subway... busy busy full of people inside.
I miss a bus that sometime I missed my stop because so many people inside the bus..
no space at all to walk!
I miss the little stores on the street you can walk and shop by anytime wearing with your fancy high heels!
I miss a fancy interior cafe's on the street!
I miss the quick service system(men) in compact city that whenever/whatever/wherever
you want call the quick service company,
they do quickest service for you with a little money.
So much competitions going on every market and businesses in the small country!!
You pay less for someone else to do with your jobs/works actually you do by yourself.
Save time and save money to make someone else to do things.
I thought it's normal life in Korea,
but when I came to USA lived longer and longer,
Here is very different.
I have to do so many things lol
All my Korean friends IN USA were surprised lol

WE ALL DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO BESIDES TRYING TO FIND SERVICE COMPANY LOL
WE FOUND SOME WEBSITES AND PLACES WHO TO THAT FOR US,
BUT
VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY EXPENSIVE!!!

I am getting better
I am trying to do something by myself..

YOU KNOW WHAT GREAT THINGS I DID IN USA IN MY LIFE?

I got driver license!!!
I have my own car!!!
I thought I would never drive a car in Korea,
I was thinking~
I am not driving just meet a guy who has a car lol

I joined the church and found the perfect man in the world!
(I never imagined I would be marry American man lol)

I have a beautiful baby!
(I thought I would be marry late 20s and early 30s)

I am staying home mom!!!
(I thought I would still keep the job even after having baby.)

We are plaining to have more kids!
(I thought I would have only one child like everybody does in Korea.)

Now I can eat Mexican food without having stomaches problem!

WHAT A BIG DIFFERENT I WOULD NEVER HAD IF I STILL LIVED IN THE CITY ,, IN KOREA.
MY LIFE HAS CHANGED SO MUCH SINCE I CAME TO USA.

you don't actually realized how much you've changed after 4~5 years..
living in a different country.

my mind changed too.
You are able to see everything more wider and open than before.
You realized what is the actually most important thing in your life.
You see yourself better when you've lived different places far away from what you used to have/with.

I still need to learn lots of things
I still need to figure things out in my life with very different ways
but I am very thankful to God who gave this chance to me;
giving me a chance to live different place/country/meet different people/different life style.



aBOUT SERVICE COMPANY:
(lots of guys with motor bike standing in the city with several cell phones are normally quick service men that company calls them the nearest person from the customer and they got call from company who gets to the costumer first(fast) have a job& earn money that day!
Basically company lets quick service men knows with Cell phone text message where/who/what/, who are near by customer they try to go fast before some other quick service guy gets the customer first and get a work.
This is amazing! Quick service men arrive to me in 5~10 mins!
and ASK WHAT I WANT THEM TO DO!
You don't need to pay lots of money for labor because so many quick service companies
this is very competitive business in Korea so lots of cheap deals going on with better service!)

You should write a book..."The Korean American" subtitle "Why I miss POLLUTION"!? Don't worry you have 2 free service men now, Max and I.

It's good to see you turning into a country girl, we'll have you plowing the fields and milking the cows in no time! lol

I love when you teach us about Korea and your life there. It is interesting and it also helps me know and understand more about you!
