These are some pictures of one of our last dinner parties that we had on Monday night. We had Noel come over and meet Emerson's mom, a beautiful East Indian woman. His mother has had 16 children~ She is the picture of a peaceful, rich woman who has been through amazing things raising all of those children with very little to depend on except the provision that God provided from their land and grit. The two of these ladies, Noel and Emerson's mom could not have been more different than night and day, yet, they found a way to communicate and enjoy the evening. Near the end of the night, we surprised Noel with an early birthday cake. She was completely shocked and emotional. This was the last night that we spent any significant time with Noel before we prepared to leave on Thursday.
You will also notice a photo of Adam, Leslie and Emerson. Since Adam and Leslie are vegans they could not enjoy the pork tenderloin that I prepared, so Emerson decided to also eat with them to see what a vegan meal tasted like. He love it! Leslie had to be very creative in the kitchen so as to avoid starvation. It is a hard place to have a special diet.
