Home sweet home?
What I wanted to post yesterday.....what I was able to post today... We are now back in Tala and yes it is always good to be back home, especially when the electricity is on and water is running (however our shower isn't working, aarrgghh). Ok, we did arrive home,...
Video yes, video no
Ok, so here's what happened with a video request. First Baptist Church New Baltimore (FBC) came for a visit. We had 15 wonderfully funny, loving and all around great people hanging with us and the kids. Recently they had a "recap" day (sorry can't remember exactly...
Past 24
Time frame for the past 24 hours or so.... Saturday: 2pm - setting up to watch a movie (Shrek 2) at C4KK 2:30pm - working on a letter for Peter (dealing with the corrupt pastor) 3:30pm - finally watching the movie (time for a laugh with Puss....in Boots!) 5pm -...
Quick recap
Some days just get away from me and before I know it days have gone by without a blog post. It's been busy to say the least. Getting 8 secondary students into school, dealing with primary students (teachers are on strike) and other "situations". I mentioned in a...

Yet another reason
Today was yet another example of why our home should be on the property at C4KK (if you'd like to help make that happen please visit our website for more details). Just after Chuck made the drive home from C4KK we received a phone call from one of the boys at...
Yes…paperwork!
Yea that was being a bit sarcastic...sorry. The month is about to end meaning another school term is about to begin (the last for this school year) and the monthly food purchases must be made. What's involved with that you ask? Well let me fill you in on a little...
New beginnings
Don't get all excited....I'm simply talking about bananas! After 18+ months bananas are finally growing and my mouth is already salivating 🙂 This will be our first harvest of bananas and praying it's the first of many, many more!
What was accomplished?
Yesterday's blog post listed out my plans for the day...how did I do? Well let's see.... Instead of organizing school supply shopping I told the secondary kids they had one more day to add any items they may have missed to their list. Wouldn't you know it most had...
