I can't even put into words the love and joy they have placed in all of our hearts. Christ is so preset in these lovely people and this school.

Ecuador Trip 2016 Thursday - Friday

I was able to enjoy the beautiful weather today without anything getting in the way!

Happy birthday to my Daddy today! Love you!
