Help cleaning up the kitchen- the boys cleared out all the shelves, swept, killed all spiders, reached in all the scary dark corners and saved the day. It was so great having their help and support for the last day of packing and moving out.



George, Jacob, Me, Richard, and the two little guys Kevin and Albert

Since 1999 Mom and Dad have been sponsoring Richard. In 2006 Connie and I went to visit him in Bbira Village just outside of Kampala. Before leaving UG Rebekah and I took the necessary steps to visit him again.

It was a short but sweet visit, he just finished his S4 exams so we were able to hear about the national exams from a different perspective than the students in our village. He hopes to be an accountant and assured me that the exams for that track were "more than" fair and he performs well. It was neat seeing how he has grown and talking about his home region- Kabale district. George and his twin sister Dorothy come from Kabale too, Jacob is Richard's biological brother, and the two little guys came from the Watoto Babies Home.

The older boys of course had to test our knowledge of Rukiga- and we had to tease them for speaking Lugandan and not pure Rukiga. It was a nice time of laughter and fellowship.

Watoto is doing a good work in Uganda. Check them out.
