I have been remiss in posting stuff about the kids. Usually I only post about my own self centered things. So here I am catching up. Ben turned four years old in May! Can you believe it? Hannah and Aiden are doing homeschool with me daily and both are excellent readers. In fact Aiden takes after me and easily reads a book a day. Not easy books either but he has read through the Chronicles of Narnia completely in the six months we have been here and is starting them over.Â
We have made friends with an American family who have two girls Aiden and Hannah's age. We went to dinner with them last night and I heard Aiden and Emma discussing their favorite parts in the Chronicles of Narnia. Ah...a true booklover! It makes me so happy! Hannah and her friend Grace giggled through dinner and threw rice at eachother. It was so nice to see the kids so happy. They have Ugandan friends too but it is so nice to be with people from the same culture sometimes.Â
I am enrolling the kids in a one week summer camp at an international school. They will be doing swimming lessons so they can impress the grandparents when they come in September. Aiden is diving already and has lost his fear of the water.Â
Pray for the kids as they also battle culture shock from time to time. Pray that our irritation with the culture doesn't taint their experience here. Pray for their hearts to be teachable and for their love for their family to deepen.
