Have a Heart

The Georges in Peru by Allen & Mary Beth George

"Dad I need a pig heart!  It's for biology class.  We're going to dissect it."

"Sorry, I'm fresh out!"  But that's not a problem in Peru!  I went to the market and asked for pig hearts.  For about $1.50 a pound one can buy pig hearts in bulk.  This lady was a bit disappointed that I only wanted one.

I hope you had a good Easter!  I was the special speaker at a men's retreat on Saturday out at our camp and then Easter morning Mary Beth and I went out for a run/bike ride during the sunrise and the kids slept in.  The church near camp (where Mary Beth attends) had a baptism service Easter morning and the pastor from my church officiated it!
