Been meaning to post this one for awhile. I received another care package of avocados a few weeks back! So exciting. The return address was San Antonio, TX and there was a nice note inside telling me to enjoy them – but no name.

It didn’t take me too long – a quick email – to find out it was Jack, a wonderful man and special friend of my good friend and former Spanish teacher, Kelly. (That’s not what I call her though – can’t get past the formality of “Miss.”) They are a wonderful pair, and along with a team of others have an exciting summer of mission work planned together in Africa – visiting Compassion International sponsored children and working in Ugandan IDP (internally displaced) camps. And after that, who knows? He has my approval as husband material, and let me tell you, it was not so easy to get.
The avocados may have been a bribe!?
(P.S. Jack does not like this picture of himself. He’s even more handsome in real life!)
