During a week of hard work there was some time for fun. On the last couple of days when it is hard for everyone to have a job and their eye clinics were completed the ladies went and played with the children in a near by field. They had balls, jump ropes and bag races. Our translator Carlos does more than translate. He made a new friend, an iguena. Also, there was two special days that week. Amy had her 40th birthday on Tuesday so we had a Honduran birthday party for. She actually got an egg cracked over her head. This is a Honduran birthday tradition. Mike was nice enough to put the egg in a sandwich bag. Sunday was Mother's Day and they gave all of us a flower for Mother's Day. Audra also went the extra mile that day and brought a photo printer and took pictures of all the children and they got to make their mothers (madres) a Mother's Day Card. That was a huge success. The children love to have their pictures made here and to be able to get a printed copy was just more than words could describe. Thank you Trinity Baptist Church for bringing so much to this beautiful community called Santa Cruz. To God Be the Glory!!!!!!!!!!!
haha, love that pic of Carlos!
