Two Weeks....

~Hello again from Ghana~

It has now officially been two weeks since we arrived here. Amazing. The first 3 days felt like 3 months...now I am asking that age-old question (and one would think SOMEONE would have the answer by now)--"where does the time go?" Grandma Judy and I still spend most of our day just being with the children. My morning class is going much better now, and I think it will continue to improve as we go on. Each one of the kids is unique and wonderful and I LOVE every single one. Hey Mom, are you sure I can't bring one home with me?

Last Sunday we went to church with Ms. Romana and her family. It was a little more subdued than our first Ghanaian church experience, but still very energetic. I knew most of the songs we sang during worship time, which felt great. After church we went to the mall to do some food shopping, and I had pizza for lunch, so I got a very greasy, cheesy taste of home. Mmmmm yummy. We had a great time running around the mall and trying to keep baby Eunice from crying (she came to church with us as well).

We have some plans to get out and see the world this week. On Friday we will most likely go and see a place where they make beads out of recycled glass. I am VERY excited about this; we may buy some beads of our own while we are there. It should be interesting. Then, on Saturday, we are going to the open-air market. We have been warned to put on lots of sunscreen and wear hats. I can't wait to tell you all about our next "cultural" experience!

Please pray for us and the children to stay healthy and safe. And for the continued blessing of electricity and working computers! Thank you all for joining us on our trip.

God bless,
