Victor's perception of his mother's age.....

Valerie and Victor have been working hard this week to take their SAT (Standard Achievement Tests) and when we discussed how it was going this morning before school, Victor commented:
Gee Mom, it must have been tiring for you to take your SATs.
With a puzzled look, I asked: Why's that Victor?
In response, he made hand motions implying that when I took tests (way back then!) I had to use a feather and ink pot!

Cut me a break Victor, your mother isn't that old! Those were used last century!
To which Alfredo sheepishly replied: Ah, Lisa, excuse me, but I did learn to use those in my school when I was young!

Oops, here give me a minute to take my foot out of my mouth!

Easter Vacation enjoyed with Alfredo's family who lives on Roatan Island

At the risk of not appearing to be "suffering for Jesus" this past week, I tentatively share with you the visuals of our Easter Vacation spent with Alfredo's relatives in the Roatan Islands! We stayed at a house near Alfredo's uncle and had the blessing of having "locals" show us around. How thankful we were to have my brother-in-law's (Rogelio's) girlfriend Paola with us, We thank God for this memorable vacation! Check out the brief video clips I managed to take of the dolphin show we attended at Anthony's Key Resort.
