I am posting this a few days early because we are leaving for a community retreat in Mandeville, but this Tuesday, February 10th, is my mother's birthday!
For those of you that don’t know Mary, she happens to be the most beautiful, sweet, intelligent and loving woman I have ever met. I am dedicating this entry to her, as without her love and support, I would not be able to do the work I do here in Jamaica. It saddens me greatly that I am not home to help her celebrate this day. Please bear with me as this entry will probably be the cheesiest I ever write. If you do know Mary, make sure you wish her the happiest of birthdays.
2 Nalgene Bottles…$16.00 U.S.
1 Pair Hiking Sandals…$39.99 U.S.
3 Pounds Red Peas…$500.00 JA
1 Bag Jamaican Coffee…$203.00 JA
Having your daughter's students, the Mount Friendship church ladies, a dog named Stubby, and PVI 2008/2009 wish you a happy birthday...priceless.
I wish I could be home to celebrate, but know this: I love you, Mom.
