Like Familly

Parks here are nothing like they are back home. We've been to three different parks and they have all been beautiful walking trails and some open space and not much else. One of them had 4 slides built into the side of a small hill and some of those exercise stations, but that's it. The boys are going to love our parks at home!

Since we've been here 15 days now we've gotten to know a lot of the staff personally. We have limited Spanish and they have limited English and we all help each other learn. They are so friendly and they have all been so helpful. They tell us often what a beautiful family we are and they treat us as part of their family. Today at breakfast we found out that one of the guys in the restaurant died in a motorcycle accident last night. His name is Diego and he has a wife and 6-year-old daughter. He was one of the people who always stopped to talk to us at breakfast not matter how busy they were and he always took the time to really listen to how things were going. He genuinely cared and his servant's heart was plain to see. Please keep his family in your prayers.
