October 2011

Found good homes for the last 2 puppies (these guys will make good guard dogs eventually), and salvaged my garden!!!

Aunt Elsie, our home school coordinator, was out for her 2 week home visit and did school with the kids while I entertained the flow of visitors that came our way.  She was a true God-send and I don’t know what I would have done without her there.

Among the visitors were friends that we met in Switzerland this past summer at Breathe.  They are an Australian family that brought their 3 girls (the ages of our kids) and another Aussie friend.  We had an amazing time, Nathan got to travel with Nick, the husband, to visit Baka camps farther down south.  Then Nathan took them on a tour of a few other parts of Cameroon (including the beach…we were a bit disappointed that the kids and I couldn’t take a break from school but had to keep pressing on and miss this). 

 

And…6 weeks later, Nandry took out her studs and try on the assortment of earrings that she had been waiting to wear since forever!  So hard to wait.  Such a pretty girl!
