Starbucks and The Trip of a Lifetime
In March, Mom and I traveled on a 10-day journey to China. We kept saying it was the "trip of a lifetime"...which, of course, turned out to be true for her. As much as we enjoyed eating interesting food, exploring new things and taking part in Chinese culture, there was one thing we couldn't do with out: STARBUCKS.

Jen,
Thanks so much for sharing your mom's life with us in such a powerful way. I love this particular part about China! You are such a blessing.

I love seeing the pictures of Starbucks. We were always dragging each other to Starbucks for our "off campus" appointments to get a break from schol. We shared many hours there talking about our families, school, and her visions for school. Miss you guys and hope you are doing well. I miss your mom.
She looks beautiful in the photos.
