I hope my husband doesn’t mind that I have a new man in my life.  I met him a couple of days ago, and it was love at first site.   His smile, his eyes, his missing tooth were more than I could handle. He had spiritual depth too.  I loved watching him pray.   Notice the way he prays compared to the other kids. His name is Jose Manuel and when he introduces himself to others, he always uses his full name with much confidence.

I do believe I am in love.  I would like to bring him home, but I don’t think that is possible.  Oh well, I may just have to come back to see Jose Manuel.

When I said goodbye to Jose Manuel, we exchange a hug, but then he kissed me on the cheek.  I have not washed it since.

Goodbye Jose Manuel, I will never forget you my little friend!

We are heading back to Lima tomorrow up over the mountains, so our week at Project PE350 has come to an end.  We will spend a couple of days in Lima, some people from our group will meet their sponsored children in Lima and we will go to the Lima Zoo.  It should be fun.
