One Happy Momma!

First Successful Load of Laundry

A few of my Favorite Things

Organizing Our School 
We were able to wash and dry by machine our first load of laundry today and I am thrilled. Thanks to my very talented husband who dedicated himself to figuring out the inverter, batteries, and generator.  I have said if I was going to live in Africa I would be so blessed to have Ben by my side and today I am. So we now have electricity to run the refrigerator, water heater, lights, washer and dryer, all the things this spoiled Muzungu thinks she needs. We spent the afternoon unpacking our school supplies and organizing. I also unpacked some photos of our family and friends so they are always with us. Makes me smile to see all their faces! Our PCA family began their school year today and that is very bitter sweet, but we pray God's continuing blessing upon them all. Abigail and Elizabeth are ready to start school too, so we will begin next Monday for sure. They are all ready for some sort of routine. We will go back tomorrow for more unpacking:)

    Looks like you are almost home! Nice washer. If you are drying your clothes in a dryer, you won't have to iron everything will you?
    When are you planning your first night there?

    I am so happy to see your home coming together there. It is amazing the things we take for granted until we don't have them any longer. Thank you for reminding me to be thankful for my washer and dryer!! Love to all of you!

    You Rock Rebecca Bobo! I remember praying specifically for ya'll on the day we started school, knowing it would be bitter sweet for you. Will do the same when we head to DC! Maybe Abigail could go when you take one of the other kiddos!!!!!!
