Well, tomorrow is the day I leave. It has been very hard to say the good byes. This afternoon I will go to MCCH and see the children for the last time (last time this trip - who knows!!!). We all were invited out for dinner last night to friends of our host family. They produced a delicious African dinner for us - you do make friends here easily as the Kenyans are so welcoming.
Two little photos I'll post. The Mama's Bible Study Group was one of my favorite times of the week, so I took that photo yesterday so I could remember them.
I have learned when the children at MCCH hear a mzungu is coming to stay for awhile, they 'claim' a person. One who 'claimed' me was little Brenda, who is 7, and became my dearest little friend. She loved playing with my hair, sitting on my lap getting hugs and attention. She's on my lap in the photo - it will be very hard to say good bye to her.
Will write to you again soon from Melbourne, Australia.
Love, Nancy
Oh Nancy. It will be so hard for you to leave, but I am looking forward to seeing you (and going to the Blackfish for lunch). I must say, you are easy to pick out in a photo.......
