Today is a happy day. Juan and Emy returned
after their 2 month vacation. And…Ali is
here for a month from Australia. It was super to see them all.
We woke up around 7 to pick up Ali the Aussie
from the airport. We emerged from our room and Chad said, “hermano!” I only saw Moises and was
puzzled at why he called our son “brother”. Then I saw Juan. I was overjoyed. I gave him a monster hug
and we chatted as much as possible before it was time to leave.
Check out her exuberance!! |
Chad and I drove to the airport to pick up Ali.
We were fretting the flight would be canceled due to the rain. However, luck
was on our side and she landed fairly close to the planned time. As soon as I
saw her, I could feel how exuberant she is and how much she will mean to the
kids. She is 19 and has spent some time adventuring in Peru and the U.S. and
was searching for some more good times in service. God sent her here just in
time to care for baby Janette and Amy since the other volunteer leaves in a week.
The new arrivals. Baby Emily is so much bigger! |
We arrived at Familia Feliz during church.
After a brief tour, we joined the others. Missy immediately introduced everyone
to Ali and then we finished the service. We spent a half hour lingering in the
church just fellow-shipping together.
The rest of the day flew by as we conversed
with the new arrivals and caught up on each other’s travel
adventures.
**Keep adventurizing!...I know I will!**
