Baby Katie Bug

Brian and Holly
Things at Amani continue to go absolutely superbly. There has been lots of movement lately which is always fun. We said goodbye to Holly and baby Emmanuel who were adopted into a wonderful Ugandan family. Christopher and Priscilla (Katie)went home to America to live with a truly incredible family! We loved spending time with their mom, Jenny, and were sad to see her leave, but sooo happy for them all! Melody and Joseph head out Monday morning to live in America with another awesome family. Arielle will accompany Mel, Joey and their dad, Tim, to America and will be able to stay with them for a week at their home in Arizona. Mel has been one of Arielle's all-time special kids around the world and this will be a blast for her. She comes home to Uganda on the 29th. Now you must think, what will I (Rachel) do without my other half?! I am thinking the same thing and will be a bit lost without Ar, but somehow will manage myself for the 10 days. We have 2 new baby boys who came in within the past couple weeks. Baby Jonah is an infant with a beautiful head of curly hair and baby Luke is a malnourished little guy who was found abandoned in a sugar plantation. Luke is receiving extra love and care in the clinic and we hope to see him fatten up soon!
We continue to do toddler bible study a few times a week which the kids love! We pinned the Jonah on the Whale, made crowns for King David and created our own lion pendants for Daniel's story. We have enjoyed putting the kids to bed each night- bathing, jammying them, and snuggling before bed. Love you all! Peace.
