Blame it on the Rain

Well
I have been realizing
In the last few days
That I have been
Sorely remiss
In writing blog posts...

I always fight the thought

“My life isn’t that interesting...
Does anyone really care
To hear what I have been doing
With my ‘day to day’
So to speak”

Anyway,
Long and the short of it
Is that I started praying
That the Lord would
“Inspire me”

Unfortunately
Now I have about four blog posts
Floating around in my head
Waiting to be written out

Man...
When it rains
It pours!

:)

Which leads me to my first
Blog update...

Which quite literally
Has to do
With the rain!
:D

I thought I would give you all
A little look
Into what happens here
When it rains

Fortunately
(Or unfortunately
Depending on your perspective)
Today was Sunday
So there wasn’t a whole lot
Going on
Since we don’t have any staff here

Here is a bit of a glance
Into a wet...
Soggy day

:D

First of all
All our pets
Seem to think
That when it is raining outside
It gives them permission
To take over our huts
Inside...
So here they are
In all their glory

(Cy and Five Bucks...

My room = Their room

When it rains)

 

Chai

Clean Laundry... Or bed

She decides I guess :)

Poor Zippy

Don't you just feel

The need to save her

:)

 

Zooey

Technically

She isn't even allowed in that room...

But do the rules REALLY count

When it is raining :)

Then there are

The children

Hiding in their rooms...

But they

Love it!

They would love it even more

If I would let them

Play in the rain :)

That's me

Meanie ;)

And this

Is an example

Of why

We have these steps

Built INSIDE the huts...

We call them wells

Because every time it rains

They fill up

Yikes!

The girls and their dolls

Elizabeth

Elianah

Elyssa and Eden

And of course

The boys

Girls have dolls

Boys

Have Legos and K'nex!

And then...

There is me :)

Running around

Doing what needs to be done

I love Africa

And the rain

:)
