Father's Day

Sorry to leave you all hanging . . . everyone keeps asking what happened with the computer.

Well the next morning we went to our meeting at the District Attorney's office. The vendedor didn't show up. So he is trouble for possessing stolen goods and now for not appearing. She took our statement and said that there was a new investigation open and that she wanted to get the vendedor's statement before she gave the computer back to us. If he doesn't come to her office she said she would go to his tienda and look for other stolen goods. So now we just wait. But really, we don't mind. We are still just basking in the glow of God's hand in all of this. God is amazing!

We spent the day yesterday at the kids school, Sataurday, 8:30 to 2:30. There was a father's day party and the kick-off to the intermural olympics. The kids are on the "red" team. They walked in the opening parade of colors and them 4 of them danced or sang for the fathers. (3rd grade didn't do anything). It was so cute!

Christian's Father's Day started with a delicious breakfast of eggs benedict - Peruvian style: ciabatta rolls instead of English muffins, and "pizza ham" in lieu of Canadian bacon. It was still very good though. Then we hosted our gringo home church tonight. Scott and Meghan are in Lima. It was fun and we had a lot of people. It amazes me how many people come and go in our small circle of aquaintances. Our friend and fellow SAMer, Marshall, arrives on Tuesday and will live with us for a month while he attends classes at the institute as well.

It is freezing cold in our house right now. There is no heating anywhere here in any of the buildings. When the sun is out the temperature is o.k. It is winter here now so the cold is awful but you roast in the sun. It is crazy. Sweaters are contantly being put on and taken off. The only warm place around here is our bed . . . so good night.
