Heading back to the ECD Guesthouses - March 15th


Today was Howard's 79th birthday! His second time to celebrate in Kenya with us!

Much to the dismay of the group I got them up bright and early (actually it was dark....)They loaded the truck at 5:15am and had breakfast at 5:30am, but 6:15am we were on the road headed back to the Division Guesthouses. They had two options, take one truck and head to Kajiado Rescue Center with me to visit the students there and have a brief tour of the school, or head back with Stephen straight to the guesthouses with a short stop over at the airport to pick up someones luggage that they had forgotten when they landed (wont mention any names - SMILE) The group was almost divided exactly in half.

Stephen's group picked up the suitcase without any problems and made it home in good time. Enjoyed some showers and unloaded the truck. My group had a blast at the Rescue Center. The girls that are sponsored through MDP gave them a tour of the classrooms, kitchen, dorm room, and sang to them! Lots of hugs and smiles were shared before we headed back to the guesthouses at the Division.

It has been a very busy afternoon! Unpacking all the supplies and repacking, sorting, washing water jugs and refilling them and loading up all the kitchen supplies and food! The day seems never ending - it's 1am and I am still baking muffins for breakfast this week for the group! There is an energy that comes when I am working in Kenya..... is is from the heart, and I love it. I feel very passionate about the people here, and am very blessed to be able to do what I do. Thanks for making it possible.
Keep us in your prayers - we head out tomorrow once again bright and early (5:15am we will be loading up) and we will be doing clinic tomorrow in Olgume - in the Great Rift Valley.
