On Feb 22nd we lost a child here at Noah's Ark. We got him in Sept at the time he was so sick and basically very breath that he took it could if been his last. We got him healthy again. The last month he was going up and down with his health so we start feeding him with IVs. Last week he went and had surgery and it was stopped 3 times and the last time a Doctor form Canada did the surgery.
The day that he died he was very relaxed and the doctors were feeling very good about that they thought he was starting to improve and then that night he passed.
Rest In Peace
Enoch WE LOVE YOU HERE AT NOAH'S ARK

Parents
My mom and dad were here for most of feb. It was nice to see the again, and it was nice for them to see what I do. It all started when I picked them at the airport and when we were on the way home very word that they said I knew it was coming one way or another. So that was a lot of fun just for them to see how different it actually is. We had a lot of fun together we went to the north to see animals and we also went on a River boat ride to see more animals on the Nile. Then we went to the place the Nile River started it is a nice place. For the rest of the time they come with me to work and saw what I do all the time.

about me
I have been very busy lately and some of the things that I have been doing is a lot of running around for the home and the school that we have. I know that sounds like no big deal in the western world but it is the very hard and stressful thing in a 3rd world country. The rules they we have in the western world are not here so a simple thing like driving can make you so tired.
In a couple of weeks my mom and dad are coming so I am very excited. I miss them and it will be nice to see them again. I also cannot wait for them to meet their only 2 grandsons. I know that they will love them like I love them. Some of the things that we are going to be doing is go up to the northern part of Uganda and go on a safari for a couple of days, then go to the source of the Nile River also for a couple of days, just so them the beauty of Uganda, and of course relax for the 15 days. It is a beautiful place to live. Right now it is one of the hottest parts of the year.

Sleep Over
My Henry’s first sleep over, I am so proud of him he is so fun. I am been very busy lately and I have been feeling very bad about it. Henry and his friend Stephen have been asking for a couple of weeks now. So today I told him that if he wants a sleep over that is okay, he was so happy. So when supper was finished they came back to the house. I asked them what they wanted to do and they said we want to dance. So I put some music on and then invited the neighbors to join in it was like a very little block party. It was very nice to watch my 2 kids jump around and try and dance I am so proud. I hope they continue with the love to dance because I love to dance. I would really like it if they would take a dance class to learn how to dance other styles.
Holiday
It has been a very long time since I have written last and I am sorry for that. I have been very busy with the Holiday’s I tell you having Christmas and New Years for 93 children is a lot and I mean a lot of work, but we made it work though.
Has you all know I have 2 little boys living with me now. I have been doing this since thanksgiving. They’re a joy to have living with me, there is a lot of ups and downs but we make it thou.
Let me tell you a little bit about them. The oldest is Henry he is 4 years old and just finished preschool in December. He is very much full of life which is a lot of fun to watch. I just wish I had the energy that he has I see a lot of me in him.
Nathan is the youngest at 2 and he will be 3 on May 16th so I am looking forward to that. Nathan is a lot different than Henry is. Nathan is more of the type that sits back and takes it all in. He is for sure the boss and Henry is the muscle. Nathan is talking and talking and talking just like someone else I know BUT NOT ME.
The Holiday season is pretty different here than in America and it’s a little the same. Here they have 2 Christmas days. They also do not work during the week between Christmas and News years. It is mostly the privately owned business open. Even we do not do a whole a lot in that week. Most of the work force was out for the holiday. It was just the workers that work with the 93 children what were still here during that time.
