We have now officially been here over a month. We are feeling more settled each and every day. Each day we seem to experience something new, something weird or just plain odd and we tend to say "This is Africa."
We have celebrated birthdays...some numbers we will keep undisclosed. We have had playdates....We have started our ministry at Living Hope....We have had our first experience of seeing familiar faces...relishing in those moments and the sadness of saying goodbye. We are experiencing brush fires....learning to cook in difference measurements and getting it wrong some days....We are making new friends and treasuring the moments we skype with old ones....We have even had our first (and not the last) of breaking down on the side of the road. We have had service people say they will come...and never show up.
Even in those moments where you think "what in the world?" we know we are to be here. We are loving every minute.
