The joy of being hearing impaired...

Last night we went to dinner with the young elders at the home of one of the counselors in the branch presidency and his wife the RS president.  He imports fish to the US and throughout Europe and Asia...they live in a most beautiful home in a part of Surabaya we have never seen before...modern and classy and upscale!

Before we got there I asked the elders the names of the Tan's children..Amanda, Alexandra and Victor.  Throughout the evening I  tried to engage the children in conversation (they all speak English well), but Victor never responded.  As we left, I asked the elders to tell me a little about Victor, because by this time I had determined that he is a special needs child.  The elders proceeded to inform me that his name was Vincent, not Victor!!  I said, "oh elders, you should have told me while we were there!"  They began to laugh hysterically..."we did!!"  ðŸ˜›
