Kindness.................

Over the past couple of days both Greg and I have had some stomach complaints - okay it's been over 2 months in Mexico and we have been waiting for this!  Nothing extremely serious, just plain old "Mexican Stuff".  If you've been here, you know what I'm referring to.
Today (Wednesday) is garbage day.  As Greg is down at the gate putting it to the street, our Mexican Neighbours Maid saunters across the street to chat with Greg.  She is in her PJ's (cute flannel ones) and after a little morning neighbor chat she leaves.
Not long after, our doorbell at the gate rings, there she is (still in PJ's) with a large pot of brewed homeade herbal (majic) tea in her hand.  She explains (in spanish) that it is the remedy for what is ailing us both.   As we sit here drinking the pot of tea, we again are reminded of the kindness and helpfullness of the Mexican people. 
We hope a second pot won't be necessary!!
