Saying Goodbye

After a week, we had to say goodbye to our host family in Merida but we enjoyed them so much. There are actually 4 children (and one more on the way) but the youngest boy was taking a nap during this picture. Mom is homeschooling the kids after all the issues with Covid, and commented how busy life became. She wondered when she would get to rest - I suggested in about 15 years.

The older kids were a little timid with the new Americans, but not the littlest one, he toddled right over and wanted me to pick him up - and of course, I DID! They were all adorable and so friendly - a precious family. I warned the parents to look out, the youngest daughter could rule the world one day. She reminded me of someone I know very well.

We hope they get to journey to the states some day, we’d love to see them again. Blessings to all of them, they will be missed.
