I apologize for not writing in a while. Can you believe that two months has already almost passed?! I'm so used to life here, I have a hard time imagining life without these kids. Some quick updates:

1. Nicodemous had his eye surgery. We took him to the hospital and he had it removed. His first few days were really painful and he had a hard time dealing with it, but he's healing well and he's doing really well now. The plan is to put in a goats eye (yep i said goat) after it has completely healed.

2. I took my class on a field trip where we learned about all the deadly snakes in kenya and how long I would have to live if they bite me and where my camera was stolen by a baboon. (don't worry, one of my pupils chased it down and got it back)

3. I ate a goat.

A lot more has happened, but I've got little time on the internet right now. I'll share many more stories when I get home. Sarah and I leave the home this Sunday. It's going to be a sad day having to say goodbye to all of these kids, but I know it will be good to see family and friends again. Thanks for praying for us. See most of you soon!
