Safari!





A year ago today I was on a safari.

When I close my eyes I still can see the giraffes graceful walk and the harte beasts leaping across the road and the elephants lumbering oh so spritely. I see the warthogs jumping around and water buffalo wallowing. I can see the hippo that we saw out of the water running.

I am so blessed to have seen all of those amazing things that God has made. It was a good birthday and today has been great too! Thanks for all of my birthday wishes friends!

I'm a Bad Blogger

Jonathan, just before Mitchell and I left in April, came to Acacia Tree on March 19, Mitchell's birthday
Norah came to Acacia Tree in mid February after I brought her back from an island on Lake Victoria tied to me. She doubled weight and began to smile this amazing smile!
In the time that I haven't blogged I missed talking about things that happened one year ago. I met Norah, met Jonathan, and today (one year ago) I was packing to go to a safari in Murchison Falls Uganda.

I haven't blogged so I am very bad. Norah is now safe and fat and back with her family. Jonathan seems to be getting healthy and hopefully will find a family soon.

I've been reading over my past journal entries to somewhat keep me distracted. Mitch and I continue trying to start a family and I keep peeing on sticks and they keep saying no and I keep having tests done. It all kind of sucks but there is not much I can do.

I've been just praying and waiting and that's all I can do I suppose.

On my birthday this Thursday I have a blood test. Please keep me in your prayers because all this infertility stuff sucks!
