Welcome home!
Look who's home! Scholar, Ceceliah and Pius!!! They arrived today with all their paperwork and are now living at C4KK! It's been a long, bumpy road for them to finally get here....birth certificates in the making for weeks for one thing. But what a...
ATM’s and other waiting games
Nothing too unusual about today but I thought I'd give you a small glimpse into a couple of typical situations we run into almost daily and today was no exception. We were at C4KK yesterday (Monday) and planned on meeting Ann and Nancy (house mom and her daughter) in...
Chapatti time!
Today the kids (and Ann) made chapatti for lunch. Fresh chapatti is simply yummy! As you can see it helps to have many hands helping to make it and Naomi seems to really enjoy rolling out the dough! She's on the left. It really is a blessing too that they can make...
It’s a new year
New day, new year, new beginning? I've never been one for new years resolutions. I figure everyday is a chance to begin anew and today is no exception. Today does however have a feeling of freshness. I've completed reading the Bible through this past year. Ok I...

Getting my hair done
This is the salon where I get my hair washed. Best $1.25 ever spent, and that includes tip! Normally I go in once every week and a half, sometimes gets pushed to 2 weeks. Esther (far right) is the owner and always has a smile.
Oh what to write
Seems I have much to say but nothing I really want to try and express....right now. Frustrations abound. Nothing really out of the ordinary but just things that make me scratch my head and think "what is going on here?" Simple requests turn into ordeals (is there...
Mixed bag
Hello there! I know it's been awhile since my last blog post and I apologize. So this post will update you on the past few days...including Christmas. Needless to say this has been another "interesting" holiday for me. It's the second Christmas away from friends...
Home again, home again
Had to put in a small reference to the book I recently finished reading....The Book. Very interesting book in my opinion 🙂 Anyway, we are heading home today from Nairobi. It's been a fun few days of living the city life compared to village life. We stayed up late...
Here’s what happened Saturday
Can't really say it was a busy day (for me) but full. Here's a pictorial of the day: As you can see, whatever the task is whether it be letter writing to playing Bingo, they get quite intent! That was my Saturday and while I was playing games and...
