Introducing two precious children...

After being home for a little over 2 weeks I still think about Uganda much (& as any great Auntie does) - I have a few kiddos to brag on today...

The first is Debra, when you meet Debra you will be captured by her beautiful smile. Put on some music and she will dance and dance. She loves the pool and is a wiggle worm. Debra is a beauty and a diva - she is sure to let you know her likes and dislikes, she is great at school and is one of the smartest 6 years olds that I've ever known. Ice cream, Orange Fanta and chocolate cake may just be some of her favorite deserts! She loves one on one times with her Aunties and Uncles and is sure to bring a smile to your face on the most difficult of days. This summer Debra got a stander, and her muscles are getting stronger EVERY DAY! Watch the latest video of Debra....So proud of her, her spunk makes her a go-getter - she doesn't give up!

The video is of Debra during snack time - working on feeding herself a Banana. Watch til the very end...that smile :)




The Second sweet kiddo is Walter, he has an app that is named after him "Walter's Flying Bus" is the name - you need to look it up!
Walter is shy at first but will quickly warm up. He can ride a bike like a champ and loves giving the other children 'rides' on his bus. Walter has BIG dreams. He loves when his aunties and Uncles tell him to get shoes on and he is quick to say "Sam too?" Sam is his best friend. He then asks over and over Auntie we go to Kimaka, Auntie we go? Auntie we go? - he loves time with his aunties and uncles. He loves to swim, ride his bike around Ekisa (almost hitting his aunties too), boda rides are a special treat as are trips into Jinja, which he loves. He has such an imaginative spirit and loves stacking pillows, rolling with his brothers and sisters or reading books, he especially loves reading his app 'Walter's Flying Bus' cuddled on the couch.

Sweet Walter is having surgery this week - will you keep him in your prayers and ask the Lord for quick and efficient healing so he can be back running at Ekisa soon!



See some sweet kiddos for you to pray for & rejoice with tonight (&& Inspiration for me to keep trekking along on this journey with school)
