Just a few pictures from the past couple of days so that you see what I've been up to. I had a really nice birthday yesterday - enjoyed getting cards and watching the amazing video Mike made for me :) Spent time relaxing and then went to a nearby orphanage to play with the kids. Anna brought paints, paper, and crayons, so the kids had a blast drawing and painting. And then painting their faces, and so on. It's really difficult to see so many children who have not experienced much love in their lives and who are lacking so many comforts. There are few toys for them to play with and 29 children in one house. We hope to be able to return and spend more time getting to know the children!
Yesterday evening, Anna, Katie and I went to dinner at the Red Hat in Bungoma. Our dinner was very good and a nice change from what we have usually been eating. The owner even had a cake made for me! A mix between a carrot cake and a spice cake, minus the frosting. But complete with a lit candle for me to blow out.
I'm finally feeling close to healthy and over this cold/sore throat I've been fighting. So thankful for that and for all your prayers!
Tutaonana,
Glad to hear that you are starting to feel better, never fun trying to each and such when you don't feel good. By the way I love your camera, because all of the pictures you have posted have been wonderful.
