These three (brothers and sister) live very close to the Church and as soon as they see the door open, they appear. This night, while I was teaching piano, they sat by John and he was getting them to locate "words" in the Bible, like mother, father, and others to help the younger ones recognize English words. They loved it.
They bring us little notes and "packages" tied with electrical tape. One night, Nankai, the youngest, gave me a thoroughly used plastic file folder. Sometimes it's a piece of candy.
Brindin, the oldest, "shepherds" the group. He is always patient and kind to his brother and sister and they are always together. Nankai is a devoted tease. John taught him the "look at the ceiling while I flip your Adam's apple" trick. He thinks that that is the funniest thing.
Brindin could charm the socks off a snake, and that is even before he smiles! With his smile, he could conquer the world! He speaks very good English. He is the one who after seeing the film "Legacy," he said he would dream of sleeping in a covered wagon, and that he would go the Salt Lake Temple when he was a missionary! He will do both.
They have absolutely stolen our hearts. Brindin is my piano student. When I am at the church, he will come over and practice and practice until it is time to close the doors! He has had only 6 lessons! The two little ones taught me the rock game, Serambun. Beatrice, I call the most beautiful little girl in Malaysia.
They have an older brother, Lucas, who is a dynamo. He can teach Seminary, teach with the missionaries, speak in Church, act as a translator, and anything else you need! He is all of 16!
These are among the choicest of the choice... They will be great leaders to their people. We are privileged to know them. Is it any wonder that the Lord is seeking in the four corners of the earth for THESE TREASURES?
