| big news |
Big news in the bush tonight:
Local man taken to the police station after being caught stealing a neighbor's goat.
Yes, that is is big news in Zambia. :)
 In other news - today I spoke at the little devotional time for the Happy 5 soccer group (after work of course!). There's a group of kids who get together and play soccer and have devotions and worship Jesus. Last week I went with Jimmie while he taught them, and the leaders asked me to teach the kids today. It was so much fun! They are all such sweet kids - very attentive and responsive to me. Afterwards I took their picture all together - and then of course some of the kids had me take their pictures again. They are such suckers for a camera! It's so cute. There's one kid that is absolutely adorable - I'm putting in a picture with him in it, because he's so cute.
I'm really loving being at the clinic, as a side note. There are times when it's difficult because of the language barrier, but I'm definitely feeling more comfortable there. More confident in my knowledge - at first I think I sort of forgot that diseases and sickness are the same in America as anywhere else. So maybe we don't have the same technical skills here than we do in the States, but the disease processes are the same, the differential diagnoses are the same, the signs and symptoms are the same. And the patients all still want to be loved and taken care of. And that's what I love doing. :)
Also - I found the CUTEST baby today. I want to bring him home with me. Unfortunately, I think his mom would've noticed if I untied him from her back ... too bad. Maybe I'll find another cute one unattended someday. ;o) hehe. |

Then I went down to the potter's house, and behold, he wrought a work on the wheels. And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make it.Then the word of the Lord came to me saying, O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? saith the Lord. Behold, as the clay is in the potter's hand, so are ye in mine hand, O house of Israel.
