Another Saturday has come and gone. We have 12 more weekends and if they continue to go as fast as they have, our time will be over before we know it. It seems like every other day is Saturday. Our lessons in the Los Americas Stake were normal. Scott called William to see about the kids for Sunday and asked if they had enough food. He said, "Barely". So we stopped at the store and picked up some things we thought they could use. Anyway it is the dia de Madre aqui tomorrow and Olgalydia's mom is coming to their house since they don't have the money to go to the country. Maybe the food we take them will help with dinner, I hope so.
We tried a new way to find Hainamosa from Los Melinos. Might I say that it might have been new but certainly was not better! We did see many more suburbs with the same side by side by side cement buildings that are businesses on the bottom and apartments on the top. This has been a great experience for me because I have never seen Latin culture - Scott having served in Peru says it is pretty much the same in other Latin countries. Well we finally arrived at the church to find many kids and a few women that said they were having a big mother's day event in the room we usually teach in. So we moved to the Relief Society room and had all of the nonmembers (8) since the members were involved in the activity. There are five young teenage boys that either have ADD or
are just boys and trying to find someway to keep them engaged when you can't be sitting right by them is always a challenge. So there we no members to say the prayers. After the first prayer Scott decided maybe they needed a lesson in praying so he taught them the steps you learn in Primary. They usually will do it but don't really know how.
All of our older students, but Felix, were involved in the Mother's Day event so we didn't stay after our first lesson. It was heaven to get home before 9:00. We pull into our parking lot, turn off the car and just sit there too tired to move.
