Meet Mama....




Here she is...."crazy Mama" we call her. This was from the night that she wanted us to go running through the streets with her in the pouring rain. (which was a blast) The other picture is her cooking us chicken feet soup! Mama is a servant that will never let you do anything but sit back and relax. She cooks some interesting things, cleans, takes care of us, and will not let us go a night without playing a game of Dominos, which she is very competitive in! She laughs everytime Monica and I try to talk in Spanish and laughs even harder when we say something we didn't mean. She is a woman full of joy and a love for life. She unfortunatley doesn't know the Lord, but is open to it.
Whenever we get home from school we ay "Hola Mama," and she always responds with "Ohhh my hijas" (Oh my daughters) and runs out to greet us with a kiss.
Today Monica and I told her we wanted to practice our Spanish and read to her, so we read out of the Spanish Bible I had. We started in John and we are going to continue reading to her everyday. She's an amazing lady... (and makes me miss my mom from home!)
Wish you could all have the chance to meet crazy Mama...

Hmmm...I like this post. I LOVE pictures so I can put a face with a name. Also, did you notice how Mama's finger just happens to be pointing heavenward? Maybe she is praising Jesus for you even though she doesn't realize it yet! Love and miss you, sis.
