Hello everyone! I am currently on a short vacation at the coast and enjoying a change of scenery and a change of climate! I also have a better internet connection so I am trying to provide you all with some pictures since they have been seriously lacking from my recent blog posts! I am also super excited because my family will begin their travels to come visit me on Sunday. Please keep them in your prayers as they start their journey! Ok, now for the pictures…
This is one of my favorite little patients who I have blogged about a few times. He is the one that says “FRECKLE!!!”
This is him again trying to make funny faces, though I think he actually looks more like he is in pain. He was pleased with the result when I showed it to him though.
Pictures from the Claw Machine post. That pit looks pretty deep huh?!
This was probably one of the proudest moments of my life.
Dead monkey for sale on the side of the road. The driver was very tempted…
Me, Saio, Mama Pauline. Saio was trying to think of a creative pose and hand holding was the best he could come up with. And yes, it is humid in Congo.



I think “freckles” would FREAK if he saw me.
haha b he would! Also, that dead monkey looks like a stuffed animal. the funny face of freckles is so cute. and you holding the trash can…cooler than i’ll ever be.
Sarah! I miss you and the Congo so much! Thank you for sharing the photos. I love the one of Saio – the caption proves to be typical of him I’m sure.
I’m praying for you all over there and I’ll be sure to lift up your dad and sister too. What a blessing that they get to visit you!
oh, how i miss you!!! loved the pix esp the little fellow who says ‘freckles!’ hope you’re loving your time off and soon, you’ll have even more buddies to spend time with!! tons of love, mzm
i have a whole new appreciation for these pics of Valentine and also for Saiyo holding your hand in that one pic!
