to see Boaz' cast. He was a little shy and preferred to stay inside most of
the weekend.
Saturday we had a cast signing party. We explained the tradition, and said
they could sign their names if they knew how, or they could just draw
something if they wanted to. It was really cute to see some of the little
kids scribbling a little. One of the teen-agers wrote in English: I love
you. We were impressed. There was a Baka man, named Naya, who's about 45
years old who wanted to make his mark too. So, he wrote "AYA" then got
upset, and crossed it out, and tried again, this time successfully with
"NAYA" (all caps). Can you imagine a life where you seldom write your own
name...and really have to concentrate to do it?
Life is getting back to normal. People are coming to the door asking for
money and work; the rain storms are pounding on our roof; we killed a
Boomsling (though it may have been a Green Mamba) snake right outside our
house; the mangoes are falling off the trees...

Continuing in prayer for you all... can you sign Boaz's cast for us?
Love hearing all the news. We have been offline for a week so just wanted to say Hi, we love you. We killed a snake last week too! I don't think ours was as dangerous! But hey the only good snake is a dead one!! Sign his cast from all of us. XOXOXOX
