Happy Times

The girls got their hair braided and it looks great. We went to a very small place called mamma penny's and each of the girl's hair took about 2-3 hours to do. They sat on an old cushion from a couch on the floor for that long and at the end their backs were hurting. The thing I loved it that Penny had a little girl about 5 years old and she had a doll that looked worse than a DI doll with only the body and a few strands of hair and she set and braided the dolls hair as her mother braided my daughters hair. It was so sweet. We can never forget the power of a parents example. Since school is out the girls have read stories at the library her on campus and we also attended a farewell party for Tim that was so Ugandian. They gave each of the children a gift and a tie for Tim and a scarf for me. We each had to speak and everyone else spoke too. It was nice but long. Th other day we went into a nice hotel here with carpet with carpet. Hannah all the sudden was on the floor feeling the carpet. I quess it has been along time since she has felt carpet.I love seeing things from a child's eyes.
