Meet the “in-laws” !!

Eli's family came over for lunch yesterday afternoon. Her Mum and Dad, her sister Lena and Lena's daughter Clementene. And who's the little ankle bighter I hear you asking. The little boy in Eli's lap is Isaac – her adopted son !!  Isaac has a twin brother called Moses and whilst Moses remains with his biological parents – little Isaac was adopted out to Eli and resides With Eli and her family at West Taraka.

No step father jokes please !!!   In fact I don't want to hear anymore on the subject – for some reason little Isaac likes to piss over my leg when I hold him – na em inap stret).

What did we have for lunch ?

- Delicious Fried egg and cheese skon (breadroll).
- Heaps of lamington cake.
- Fresh carrot, orange and coconut juice.
- Some sugarfruit.
- Coffee and cold water.

Eli's Mum is a very staunch Seven Day Adventist (SDA) and managed to get in a couple of prayers during the course of the afternoon. (I am not a religious person but try and respect other peoples beliefs and practices – so long they don't wake me early on a Sunday morning !!!).

The first prayer was grace before we ate and the 2nd prayer was just before the family left to head back to West Taraka. The grace prayer was average and we all said Amen before bocking into the tucker. The 2nd prayer was kind of different – as Eli's Mum was praying I could feel this breeze – it was like her words were being carried of into the ether – as she was praying, everything went quiet like and this breeze thing gave me the goosebumps.

I did manage to capture a couple of other photos on the afternoon and these can be viewed in the Friends photo album.
