Motivation for education (& edification)

Today at Akong's bedside in the ICU at UCI Medical Center, Jadon spoke more Chinese (with Mommy's coaching) than I'd ever seen or heard in his life.  It was a touching scene, one I very much wanted to record but whose sanctity I was afraid to ruin by pulling out my camera during his (& Evangelina's) tearful sharing while holding Akong's hand.

"Akong, wo ai ni.  Ni zhidao wo shi shei ma?  Wo shi Jadon.  Ni yao zhidao JJ ni.de nu:er ai ni, Mina wo.de meimei ai ni, JY ni.de nu:er ai ni, Ama ye ai ni.  Ni.de jiating dou ai ni."
