Honduras Million

I went to Honduras this summer for my

50th birthday present to myself. Not to be

trite, but it changed my world and made

me see things very differently. I sponsor

a 6 year old little girl named Iris (in

Honduras you phonetically pronounce

this Ear' dis.) She lives very high up in

the mountains and walks several

miles a day to get to school. She has a

sweet, shy smile and doesn't speak

English but we seemed to communicate.

We both like to be silly and make faces

and sometimes that was enough of a common language.
