November 15th. 22 years ago today i arrived on American soil as a five month old after screaming and crying my head off the entire way from Korea to Albuquerque. It's amazing i survived that whole trip...survived without some aggravated passenger throttling me and throwing me out of the plane.

This day has always been such a wonderful and mind-blowing reminder of God's sovereignty and blessing. Think about it...i could've ended up with ANY family in the WHOLE world, and yet God had it planned that i would be in the Owyoung family from the start. i am so blessed...

i just read my xanga blog entry from November 15th of last year. It's so weird how much has changed in just a year...
