Hey Everybody! We would first of all like to let you know that we made it to Uganda safely. Thankfully, everyone is awake and feeling quite well. Today we visited the Mumford home where "math fun" was all we had! The Mumfords have about 15 kids that they take care of and love. All of the kids are homeschooled and needed just a little extra help with their math skills. From fractions to tough Algebra problems, the kids (both boys and girls) were challenged. There were lots of laughs and three hours later, a lot of the kids had gotten through many pages in their math books. While I was there, I met a young girl (whose sweet sixteen is Friday) named Jenneth. She showed me all around their gorgeous and very large home, told me a little about her story, and picked me a flower before I left. She told me how grateful she was for our help with her math and gave lots of hugs. It was quite a blessing! Just driving through some of the villages and seeing the faces of the people is just wow. Its also kinda fun to watch very smiley people walk their giant horned cows down the middle of the road and then smile and wave like crazy at you. What a great thing to see! (Pictures at a later date)
Before we went to the Mumford home, we spent most of our morning at Pastor David and Aimee's home sorting through all the donations we received and chasing around little Aviana (David and Aimee's adorable three year old). We have also been blessed with the help and company of fourteen year old Anita! We all worked together this morning to see where each of the donations we got will go. Its been so much fun! It's been a blessing already being here even though its only been one day. Can't wait to see what else the Lord has! (More pictures later)
On tomorrows agenda: The Adamson Four are traveling to an Island Hospital!
