Mexico!

I'm going to have to write about our adventure in Mexico for the next few days! What an experience. We were able to be part of Jim's sister and brother in law's "Mayan Miracle". They have adopted a village deep in the jungle's of Mexico, and when they see Kevin's van coming in, the children run to tell their mother's and soon they show up dressed in their best clothing, to be loved and hugged by these good people who have become their friends.
Sorting through clothes to make sure there is something for everyone!
Lined up with bags and we fill them with supplies. Such sweet people.
The children have very few school supplies and so pencils and other school needs are a big hit! The smiles on faces and hugs of welcome were heartfelt and made my heart break a bit as we left. They are grateful for so little. I appreciate Tam and Kevin for giving me the opportunity to see and participate in what they are doing. It truly is a miracle!
