Oct 22, 2010 – It’s been a while since I’ve written anything. I guess I’ve just been distracted by the fact I know our days are numbered here in Kenya. Also with Steve and Judi back the days seem a little more full, with the explaining what we have done and just catching up.
Our time here at CGA is almost complete. It is actually complete for Joyce, but I’m still hanging around some.
Joyce got to participate in chapel again this morning, getting the kids to sing some of the songs from the Christmas Pageant that she has been working on while we’ve been here. She ended with getting the principal up front to help lead ‘Hey Hey Mon’. The kids loved it and all had a good laugh. If you know the song, you can imagine why.
Our saying good bye and them saying it to us went with fewer tears than expect on Joyce’s side. I, and her, was sort of expecting a good stream of water coming from her, but they made it quick and pretty fast which did help. I even teared up a little, but pulled it together pretty quickly.
We got presented with card from each grade and the teachers. Reading material for the plane. They usually give out more, but I think we got all the usual volunteer gifts the last time we were here. It caused some concern to the head master that he had nothing to give, but I doubt it would be anything nearly as good as our pictures and memories.
Well, hopefully another one or two blogs before we get home.
