We've got lots of birthdays in April.
Mine was the 11
th, Hermana Rosario's was the 16, and
Victoria's is tomorrow. About half the staff of the parish
also has a birthday in April. But Hermana Rosario's birthday
celebration takes the cake. Actually it takes the cakes – she had
four cakes at her birthday party.
Hermana hosted the party for her 72nd
birthday. We were there, as was Padre Calilo, a few people from the
town, one of the teachers I work with, and a funny crew from Cusco
that are her friends from back in the day. There were at least 3
kinds of appetizers, and a small mountain of food on each plate for
the main course. I left the fullest I've been since Thanksgiving.
It was a joy to celebrate the woman who
has been so kind and welcoming to us. I wish her many more years of
health and happiness in the Sur Andina.
