Update from Kenya: from Leigh

I was able to speak with both Bella and Jana on the phone this morning. Leighton even got to say Hi to his big sister, and Lola managed some grunts over the phone! Their time in Kitale, Kenya has been tough, but rewarding. Long days, lots of needs, sweaty kids (including Bella) and more! Bella has definitely had some great moments, being able to paint fingernails for girls at the Discover 2 Recover center. She has also had some not-so-great moments, once you have most days as a 4 year old, only most times you are not in a foreign country when it happens! Many of the kids say that she is the "smallest white person they have ever seen", so many are enamored with her and she doesn't like the attention most of the time! She is taking everything in though, soaking it up like a sponge, so we are confident that this trip will round her character and develop a wanting to serve... something that we see benefits from in years to come! Jana is feeling dirty nasty and is ready to come home and see her other babies (and husband). Please be praying that she'll be able to finish strong! They are now heading off to another town called Narok where they will spend two night working with an orphanage there, then onto the Masai Mara for a night of relaxation/wild animal chasing before jumping on a plane for the long ride home.
