A few weeks ago, my dear boy had the opportunity to visit Europe with one of his best friends. From the time he returned we had two short days together before I traveled south for a humanitarian project in Mexico. As cliché as it may sound, and based on experience I can say that distance doesmake the heart grow fonder.

The incredible family we built for. |

Team four! I will never forget this crew. |

Just before we finished!
This trip was a very humbling experience for me. Physical labor for nine hours a day can be pretty tough, but at the end of the day when we gathered in a circle with our little mexican family the gratitude in their faces gave me strength to keep working. I will never forget the joy and happiness I saw in the members down there and the relationships we built with this most deserving family. |
What a stark contrast of scenery between Kevin's and your trip! What a cool experience you had. I can't wait to hear all about it.
ReplyDeleteI'm equally jealous of Rome and Tijuana :-)
