I actually got back from Turkana two weeks ago it has just taken a while to give an update. :) I have been quite busy
since then. See the earlier post for more about Turkana.
Last week I was helping at a pre-school in the slum that
serves many disabled children, whether it be cerebral palsy, autism or
deafness. Without this school, most of these kids would be overlooked and
ignored. My respect for teachers greatly increased as I was once again struck
by the love and patience required. At the school one of my favorite experiences was helping the kids who came to the therapy room.

This week I’ve been at an orphanage and school outside
Nairobi called Brydges Centre. The children are so bright, very well behaved,
and hungry for love. I spent over an hour reading I SPY books with one girl.
Yesterday the girls were thrilled when we painted their nails. Tomorrow we are
having a “Fun Day” full of sports games and other activities. I don’t want to
leave this place.
