Feeling normal again

February 9, 2008

Hello…everything in Kenya is starting to feel normal again! Some of the head ‘people’ in Kenya have agreed to share equal power (I really do hope that works).  It could lead to peace or just the opposite. Yesterday we had a huge soccer game, everyone played! And after that we played a football game. That was so much fun! Oh my goodness we had a blast. At 6:30 we started to head over to Dr. Russ and Mrs. Beth’s house. There we had a Friday fun day. We ate pizza (homemade) and played Apples to Apples.

It is so different to have my dad come home at an unpredictable time everyday. I feel almost overwhelmed sometimes, because I am so happy for my dad. He is doing what he loves to do and I get to be apart of that. I’ve never seen this side of my dad before…I am so proud of him. And not to mention my mom, she has been incredibly patient with us! At times it gets hard we have to make due with what we have…and what we have isn’t much.  But we are making it anyway- just fine!

    Hi Georgia Grace

    Just wanted tl say Hi from Australia. Wow, what an amazing adventure for you all. You are all doing such a wonderful job. The photos are amazing!! You will all come back different people. I know I did when I came back from India. You are all touching the lives of the people from Kenya, from the operations to just a smile and spending time with someone.

    May God bless you all abundantly and I look forward to reading what you are all doing. You have certainly caught my attention.

    Love and Blessings

    Kaye

    Hey Peaches,
    I love reading your blogs and seeing Africa through your eyes. You are an eternal optimist much like your uncle. (a great characteristic to have!)

    God has given you and your siblings His “grace” and covering to embrace the culteral differences while on the mission field. It’s pretty amazing how this happens. You’ll come to realize this more when you get home and reflect back on your trip. You’ll think to yourself, wow, I really did this or enjoyed that, I can’t believe it?!
    The last time I saw you sitting in service with your mom I was thinking about how grown up and more beautiful you are looking and as I read your blog, Romans 10:15 came to mind. Take a look at it and may it bless you. You and your sisters keep up the great work! (and Jack)
