Well, I surely have been busy around here. On Monday, two people from the home office on staff with Rafiki came and are staying in the Koch's house because they are not here. Then, on Tuesday, Linda's daughter, son-in-law, and two grandchildren came. The daughter and son-in-law are staying in the guest house, so all six beds are full in here and there are people coming and going a lot!
Today, I finally got to butcher pumpkins. We cut them up and pulled out the seeds and goop and cooked them so that we can get the meat out and freeze it. Super exciting.
We played with shaving cream in school today which was awesome. The kids were kind of rowdy today and we had a few discipline issues, but that is kind of typical. I don't like being the one who usually has to take kids to time-out though. After tomorrow, we only have two more weeks of school and then there is a three week break so I can have lots of fun! Yahoo! Then there is three more weeks of school before I return home.
It is really awesome having people close to my age here. I am growing close to the other mini-missionaries which is so great. We talk about a lot of things and do a lot together. We are all going to Livingstone and Victoria Falls together next week so that will be awesome! It will be like a vacation within a vacation!
I am kind of struggling a lot with home sickness right now. This is definitely the longest I have been away from home and it is dawning on me how long I still have to go. It is frustrating to be so antsy about getting home when I want to be in Africa so badly as well. Ah.
Your prayers and love are much appreciated. It is getting pretty cold here so I am having to bundle up a lot every day! It is really dry as well and the threat of fire is more eminent.
Every day is an adventure! Peace and love from Africa.
