So all the kids can now officially write their names! They all just about know their letters and sounds too. We've had two teenage girls stay with us for a week who have been huge help. They came to volunteer at the orphanage and help anyway possible. They assisted with school in the morning and painted in the afternoon (ceilings no less!), they got lots done. Katie is a MK who's parents are with Wycliffe in Yaounde. Joy used to be a MK here but her family went back to the States a few years back. Her folks were great friends of ours and really took us under their wing when we first came. Joy is actually Cameroonian but was adopted when she was about 2. It's pretty awesome that she got to come back and make an impact in the lives of orphans this summer.
Painting the ceiling of the "living room" we're trying to get finished
Next week we head to the beach for 5 days! Can't wait. It is so beautiful there and hardly anyone around, looking forward to just doing nothing for a few days, life has been a little busy to say the least the last few months. Also looking forward to some delicious fresh fish that you can buy right from the dugout canoes as they come back from a night of fishing, Yum!
