Thursday 7/4/13

We went to the Children's home again. These kids are so cute. I will definitely miss them. Carol got permission to snap a few pictures.

We played the newspaper game with them using their names. It was supposed to help us learn their names, but most of them have cool African names so it was almost impossible to even say them. I did learn a few of the names though.

 We did some girls camp/oakcrest table slapping games with them. They love rhythm so they love anything like that.

We did about 5 minutes of Yoga.

At the end we did some of those hand slap games. We taught them at the beginning of the week, but they love them so much they keep wanting to do them. They all want to do them with Kirsten and me. At first it was because we were the only ones who knew it, but now they just like to do it with us.

This is Hawa. One of the few names I learned. She knows a bit of English which is very helpful.

Since it was the Fourth of July we had to celebrate. Kirsten and I paraded around the house, we watched fireworks on Youtube and we got flyovers all day since we live next to an airstrip! Other people didn't seem to celebrate that much. I wonder why...
