Dear Cute Family,

Tomorrow I'm going to Japan! I'll be staying there for 2 weeks.
I have a wonderful news! My son passed the tests to go to the University this year, and I saved money enough for the enrollment fees. He passed in second place and even a well known newspaper in Japan made an interview with him and he will be in the newspaper! I'm so proud of him!
Hopefully he can leave the homeless facility and move to a student unity within this year.
I'm going to meet him on the 17th, and spend that day with him. I just can't wait to give him a big hug!
Thank you for your ongoing prayers and support. God is so good!
I love you all.
Hugs and blessings,
Yoriko

I've added the picture of the University he sent to me yesterday.

Have a wonderful time and enjoy your time with him.Can I ask - why is he living in the homeless shelter, do you not have family that can help out?

Yukio, my youngest son was living with my oldest son, but he had to move to Hiroshima, far away from Yukios school. He became homeless, and he got this homeless shelter with the help of government. He is living there for 2 years already, but I am hoping he can move to a student unit this year, that would be great! Hugs, Yoriko

Yoriko, This sounds wonderful! I know how proud you must be! My son is 46 now but I went through all of this with him yrs ago. I thought my son was going to be a professional student for a few yrs. He wanted to keep on taking different subjects after he graduated and ended up getting his education in several different things. He is wonderful on computers , programming, repairing and designing. He also decided he wanted to be in the Air and heating business so he went back for that. He does both jobs now. I know how proud you are! Just keep on encouraging him!
