We went to visit one of our support families. This is a good example of a problem. You ask the mother - does the child have a mosquito net?....Yes....Does it cover the bed?.....Yes.
It is not meant to cover the bed in this way though!
Friday 1st August was one year since the change of jobs for all staff. In celebration and thanks, staff were allowed to choose an item of clothing from our donated amounts. Those who had done exceedingly well in their appraisals were allowed to choose an extra scarf or tie and a bar of nice smelling soap.
A large group from Winchester, Kampala and Kisoro have been working in the Diocese and staying at the nearby Guesthouse. Some have enjoyed spending odd moments playing with the children and getting involved in bath time. This is always great for the babies.
Nsaba is still not sitting but he has been getting computer lessons. You can't expect him to focus on too many things at once, Mike has clearly decided on where the priority lies!
Maureen has now topped 1.2kilos and the ribs are covered in flesh. She still looks minute but no longer needs CPAP. Her mother has not been back to visit which does not surprise us but is a great shame.
We return to the UK on August 17th until early October. Mike has a couple of courses he wants to attend and we have the wedding of our second son being held in Serbia at the end of August. A trip to Scotland with relatives from Mike's family to bury the ashes of his mother is also planned. We know the time will go quickly but catching up on sleep and a complete is also needed on the list.
