bright eyed birthday girl...

Today is the birthday of my very special and wonderful friend Dana! She filled me in on her birthday festivities taking place in Guatemala (where she is serving in the Peace Corps)...a five man band sung her a birthday song early this morning. One man played an accordian while the other men sung and prayed that the new girl would learn more Spanish..The stories of her adventure are already keeping me laughing! They have welcomed her into their lives. She is living in a home with 22 other members of her new family. I am proud of her service. Proud of lives she will change. Proud to call her my friend. Happy Birthday many miles away, sweet Dana!
