gallina

is one of the boys friends (he's 17 years old) that spends weekends with us. the first time he was here the boys didn't come to church. jonny said because gallina wasn't a christian. the pastor also stays here most church nights. one night he was talking to gallina about God. the next day i asked gallina if he liked what the pastor said and he said yes. tonight i asked him to go to church with me. he didn't know what to say so danny said it for him - are you crazy - there's a soccer game on. so i asked him to go with me next saturday. he said yes. cool! i have made his breakfast and dinner several times, he likes my coffee and i stand on the sidelines to give the boys drinks of water when they are playing soccer in the hot sun. and people say i'm always smiling. i think he's ready for more.
