Saturday April 26th

Our house has been nicknamed "the airport" and today, the name couldn't have been any truer. At one time I counted at least 7 spontaneous visitors. The number of people would dwindle away and then the next wave would pass through. Getting unannounced visitors is something that I actually am going to miss when I return home.

On Thursday, I made what I think will be my last "Kampala Day." I don't have anymore scheduled trips into Kampala before my departure in May. The fact that I don't have anymore trips on the schedule is a bit of a relief actually. My nerves need to take a break for a little while.

Friday was the end of school's first term, which was the reason behind all the excitement around New Hope. The kids really deserve a break after I have seen how hard the kids work to prepare for their term exams. Wow! I think I need to take a lesson or two from them on how to study.

Thinking about returning home, I honestly don't know what the first thing I do will be. "Schwans" has come to mind, but I am fearing the effects of an ice cream overdose.

Once again, I would like to thank you all for the prayers, thoughts and encouraging words sent my way. I received a card from my parents' Sunday school class, and after a tough day, it was just what I needed. Thank you.
