First of all, we served double as many meals as usual.
We asked every Chavalo to bring one buddy from whom they thought they could really use a nice special Christmas dinner.Not only children were given the extra, some asked food for a some older "chavalos" whom have been living in the streets for about 30 years.
In the background of the first picture with the Christmas parade, you can see a couple of these guys.

A couple of sheep were born on our farm on the 25th of December!
For some reason, one was neglected for a while by the mother whom was concentrating on the other, stronger baby.
The caretaker's dog showed her motherly instinct and licked and pushed the other baby until it got on it's feet and started walking around by itself.
Another nice Christmas story is this:
One of our guests adopted a little kid from Kenia, years ago.
That kid has grown up to an adult attending University.
He is helping the poor now in Quebec, where he cooks them meals in a local shelter.Great story, Kester!
Merry Christmas to everybody!!!
