Feliz dia de la Madre!

Mother's Day is a big deal here - in some ways one of the biggest holidays of the year, at least commercially. We had the privilege of going to a different church this morning, the one connected to our language institute (the head of the institute is also the pastor, and most of the teachers are part of the church). It was a wonderful blessing to worship with them! Pedro, the pastor, speaks very clearly, and we could understand most of the service. Afterward there was a special lunch and dessert served for everybody, and flowers for the mothers.

We are so incredibly thankful for our own mothers, who have done SO much to serve us, love us, encourage us and pray for us. Every day in raising Noah we learn more about just how much our mothers have done. I can include my wife in this praise, because I am constantly amazed at what a terrific mother she is to Noah. So a huge THANK YOU to our Moms and all moms out there!
