This morning was great because we got to be incorporated into a "regular day at the Plats". We watched several games that Johnny's team played (local tournament), and then a friendly scrimmage that Caleb's team played. Joe had video camera in hand and coaching from the side more than the coach! :-)
In between that, Sarah and Hanna were shuttled to some sort of dog training seminar/lesson in Campello.
The afternoon mellowed out until around 6:30 pm when my very best friend from middle school and early teen years, Oswaldo (chichi as we called him) came by with his sister Maruja and her husband Vicente. We ended up going out to dinner with their kids and then back to Maruja's house for dessert. There is deep joy in knowing someone who knew you "back then"...to help remember the stories and make sense of the past. David was able to REALLY practice his Spanish tonight...and he did very well hanging out with my friends young adult children. It was a night remember! Thank you, Chichi, Maruja, Vicente and your great kids.
