Prayers for Abel's family. I lost a new friend to a motorcycle accident 2 years ago. I also pray for whoever else was involved. Happy Easter.

Thanks, Becky. There were at least 2 others involved. And I’m so sorry for your loss! 💔

Happy Easter!

So sad about Abél. Hits home for me, riding a motorcycle. Yes they are dangerous. Though many things are.. Especially in El Salvador there is no room to lose focus. Expect the unexpected.

Yes, there are far too many dangerous drivers on the road here--too often in the wrong lane 🙁 Stay safe out there, amigo! 🙏

You've made great and fun comparisons w/ the Laura Ingalls Wilder books. Your girls are having capabilities and positive experiences far beyond many (not all) I see in our society. I'm jealous for the majority to have such guided freedoms. You also did great in writing by closing the loop and returning to your opening thoughts. Keep up the great communication!
