Missed a day

I realized that no one had made an entry yesterday. Guess we were all just busy relaxing!
We ended up going to 3 different libraries yesterday and so with a whole new pile of books, the house was pretty quiet except for the pages turning!!
Gary and I got caught in the rain a few times yesterday, but we always carry an umbrella with us, so didn't get too wet.
Today, at the hospital, two of the boys had gone home over the weekend. We will miss them and think of them often. There were a number of new people there today though and I got a bunch of the mothers playing a game of pick up sticks. I don't think they had ever played it before and they had so much fun, laughing and giggling. One of the young fellas that works on the ward, told us that there is an ice rink in Nairobi somewhere. He was playing with Brett and the kids with their mini hockey sticks and a ball.
Tonight we go to Dr. and Mrs. Brandford's house for supper. They have been here almost 30 years and he started the Crippled Children's Hospital.
We also had our Swahili lesson today. Edward is a very good teacher. Swahili is a relatively easy language because you pronounce the letters as you see them. But my brain does not remember or think as fast as the younger ones.
The kids are outside playing with the neighbors. Just when I get feeling settled here and into a routine, we will be starting to think about leaving.
