Happy Birthday Meredith

“Oh that I had the wings of a dove! I would fly away and be at rest.” Psalm 55:6

Saturday was a day of much needed rest for all of us. We were given the opportunity to sleep in if we liked. Some of us took that opportunity to get up and take a walk, have morning devotion, or just SLEEP. Saturday was Meredith’s birthday and we had a day long celebration. We also made a point to sing Happy Birthday to her every hour in our best singing voices. The only real activity we had was going to the market in Kolomo. This was just a good time to get away from the mission. Meredith also got ice cream from a gas station during our trip. We came back and had a great dinner. Leonard, the fabulous cook here baked Meredith a birthday cake that was absolutely beautiful. This just gave us another opportunity to sing Happy Birthday. After dinner two boys from another family put on an arousing performance for Meredith. Hannah Montana will never be the same again. Once we finished with dinner we had movie night and watched August Rush which was a great movie. It was truly a blessing the electricity stayed on long enough for us to accomplish this task. After watching the movie we all got ready for bed. I have a long day ahead of me Sunday because my research starts. So all in all everything is fine we are just waiting on someone else to have a birthday.

  3. That sounds like a GREAT day! I wish I could have been there to celebrate with all of you. I can just imagine the closeness (in a good way) that you all must be feeling towards each other! I miss you all!
