All I can say is time is flying by over here.
March 08, 2008
The first month seemed like forever and now I only
have 3 weeks left and it is going way too fast!
Out at the Huruma Center, we have been doing a lot of projects with the kids involving Easter. We made paper mache baskets and painted eggs. I feel like they might be forgetting the real reason for Easter but I think that as it gets closer, they will be reminded and understand the true meaning.
At Neemah center, this week involved many things. Tuesday was a day of trying to figure out how to move the mosaic without ruining it and going around town to buy hardwood which we found out does not exist! Wednesday I traveled out to a village with the physio to watch her perform therapy on a few children but she didn't work on anybody. We visited one child and drove another back into town for surgery and that was all so I am hoping I can go again this week and see therapy. We also started the second mosaic this week. It is going much better than the first one now that we sort of know what we are doing!
Although my time here in the beginning was quite a challenge, I feel like God is stealing my time away from me now. It is going by so quickly and I can't grasp it at all! I am enjoying everything (well, almost--a few foods and rats are an exception) and I couldn't ask for a different experience. A few things are still falling into place like my time at Huruma but even that is so much better! Thank you so much for your support and prayers, they are definitely getting me through.
Peace and blessings!
