updates

there are really not a lot of updates... except these ones:
-i figured out my project and i'm SUPER stoked! my dad actually had the idea before i left, but being here and figuring out how i'll actually do it has made me way more excited. i'm going to make a yearbook to give to the kids, their families, and sponsors/supporters back in the states. my love of taking pictures and putting stuff together on pages means that this will be really fun for me :)

-the babies are wonderful and i love them more and more every day. learning and remembering more names has been fun too!

please pray for these things:

-that musana will be able to get their NGO status! apparently it's tricky here in uganda when an organization works with children (especially if it has "children" or "orphans" in the name). an inspector came (or will be coming) today to check out musana and the kids and make sure they're not training up child soldiers (seriously). so pray that it will go well and smoothly and the ridiculous corruption will not cause problems...

-the yearbooks. i want them to be quality, which is expensive. i'm working on getting in touch with a few different photo sites and online yearbook companies to get a big discount or possibly get them donated (long shot, but it would be SO awesome! also God is good and could totally work it so the emails get to the right people :) )

-emma's hip surgery stuff (he's a musana kid who needs a hip surgery and they're working on getting him to the states to do it)

-looking for maria

-health and safety of course :)

there's that... i have lots of random little stories, but they'll be better in person.
thanks for your thoughts and prayers! love you all!
