Where do I start!? Being back home has been somewhat of a shock. Last night going to bed (around 2:30 in the afternoon and waking up around midnight!) I felt exposed because of no mosquito net! Having the internet work so quickly that I don't have a chance to get tea while waiting for the next page to come up. But mostly missing all my kids in Tala! The last couple of days were very special for me because we really seemed to connect with the kids. Chuck spent one day cutting down trees with the boys while I sat with the girls and they all played with my hair. I would hear them whisper how soft my hair is or how slippery it is. They were very interested in my hair and skin and I loved every minute of it. We talked, laughed and just enjoyed each other's company. I thank God for that blessed moment in time!
And I told them I wouldn't cut my hair because they want to braid it next time!
Here are some photos of the kids on Sunday afternoon.
There are so many stories and pictures to tell that I hope you don't mind the blog continuing with some past stories and pictures. Plus some updates on what's happening at the Academy from Gideon and Ruth. Again, I thank you all for your prayers and support and pray that God bless you and your families.
