Cute Kids and ugly issues


You may have heard that Shyrel is participating in a hunger Strike in front of the Supreme Court. The cause is the plight of a number of poor women who have had their cute children stolen from them.

They sleep in a little tent at the foot of the Palace of Justice

Saturday, we were able to bring our kids to visit and cheer them.


Such a juxtaposition of stately buildings and ...just us

Here Shyrel and Maria Jose are returning to the "camp"

Even though their visitors drank all their water, Norma and Shyrel were happy they visited.

Team Tucker comes to Amor



Our friends from at least 3 churches in Southern Alabama visited. I don't have picutres of the great new shelving unnit they built for us, or the beautiful tile job. But this is a cute kids blog anyway!
Then Team Tucker became the Tucker Train crew, one might say. as our children and their frinds visited the zoo in style.

Rain, prayers and the show must go on

As Clouds and Blue sky swirled overhead, this incredibly proficient puppeteer team from Knoxville, Tennessee set up a tarp in the back play area of our village school.

The tarp proved prudent, as the rain came about 20 minutes after the start of the show. But Guatemalans are always ready and with umbrellas and plastic stayed till the rain filled the tarp.
Our kids had fun and made the most of the time too.
Tania really enjoyed the show thanks to her friend
Jose and Hannah are kind of like cats when there is rain around.
Dora and Danny found shelter under the roof edge
Juanito always enjoys every situation. Here he greets each drop of rain off the roof with delight.
