Dear all,

It’s been a bittersweet few days. We hosted a graduation ceremony for our seniors this week and had the joy of virtually meeting their parents and loved ones, and right now we’re packing up the apartment. We’ve always been terrible packers, but this is especially disastrous. Can someone volunteer to come torch all our stuff? All we ask is that you leave the stuffed animals alone. Michelle and the baby really like them. 

Thank you again for your open-hearted letters to our companion pieces about moving to Taiwan (Michelle’s here and Albert’s here). Corresponding with you has been deeply fulfilling. We’ve organized the responses mostly in the order of their arrival; if you missed last week’s installment, you can find it here. 

We’ll be traveling next Sunday to see Michelle’s family in the U.S. before setting off for Taiwan, so we’re taking next week off. See you in mid-June!
