Capture life 365–week 24

week 24 3Newest addition to the security team!

week 24 9Imuka kids enjoying books and snuggles under the shade of a tree

week 24 11It amazes me how God managed to come up with so many different types of birds – nearly equally amazing is how our very own Doctor ‘Drewlittle’ can identify so many of them! This weeks feature creature is a double toothed barbet!

week 24 12

week 24 13This girl always cracks me up! Such a big personality in such a little body!

week 24 15Learning together while taking the big kids on a garden walk – they learn the English names of vegetables while we learn the Luganda names!

week 24 18Another week with power off more than on means doing schoolwork by lantern light on stormy days – at least they’re pretty!

week 24 26You never know what you’re going to see when driving here – often funny, but this time not. No thanks to the rain which means you can’t see where the drains are or how deep a pothole is.

week 24 27

Finally a much needed date night with my man… until the phone call about sore tummies and vomit…

week 24 29Seriously, synchronized spewing should become an Olympic sport because it’s quite the talent. I have never in my life been more thankful that the power was on. In between slightly hysterical laughter because apparently that’s what I do when two girls vomit all over their beds, each others beds, their mosquito nets, themselves, the floor and all the stuff that should’ve been put away that wasn’t I just kept thanking God that the power had returned and I didn’t have to work out where to start in the dark. I learned something though, which is always good if you have something you can take away from a bad situation. I learned most of my kids have next to no ability to aim their vomit. Only the very next day this newfound knowledge came in useful as we discovered Lily could hang a spew bucket from the top button of her shirt helping greatly with the whole bad aim dilemma.

week 24 31Once again thankful that the power was on  long enough to put everything in the washing machine instead of having to get all the carrot and mystery brown stuff off by hand.

week 24 32Charlotte and her ‘twin’. What are the odds of the same injury to the same ankle at the same time?
