Mis Hijos en Honduras

Annie is getting ready to go to Honduras with Amigos on July 1st. She is going to Lempira the same department (state) that Alison went to when she was 17, and that Neil went to last summer. Annie was reading through her volunteer country materials, when Ruth (looking over Annie's shoulder) noticed this picture of Neil. Isn't it great!! I love how he is the same height as the family in the picture, yet is standing on ground a foot and a half below them.
It was really fun to have Ruth "discover" this picture. It brings Neil just a little closer to home. He seems to be enjoying his time there in Paraguay on his mission, in his new area out in the "campo". He even says he is learning some Guarani!! Of course, he seems to pretty much enjoy life in general, as you can see in the picture.

I wasn't actually seeing it over her shoulder; I saw it, then gave the packet to Annie and pointed it out.
It does make him seem closer to home!
