Visitors

We’ve had visitors to our house.

Well we didn’t let the turkeys inside, but they do enjoy our back and side yards.

We have had the privilege of having a boy come and bring us water. He charges 300 Ugandan Shillings per 20 liter jerry can. That amounts to about 10 cents. The other day we were in need of water so badly we saw him out the window and asked him to help. He happened to be holding a baby. So Isaac traded empty jerry can for the baby. I got to hold the little one for a little bit but once I passed him off to Isaac the little guy wouldn’t return to me. When the boy came back with the water it was funny because the baby wouldn’t go to him either. We forced the hand off with whining from the baby.

Isaac commented that this is what our lives will be like in a little while. We admitted to each other that it was very nice to have a little one in our house. 

Our nephew Denis spent the night with us last week. I have to admit it was interesting hosting a 16 year old boy in the house. I was very glad that the carpenter had finally put a door on the bathroom before we hosted him J Denis enjoyed American style pancakes for the first time. They were a hit.
