little memories

Recently I was reminded of a super sweet time I got to have in Uganda with the girls. It was about 10:30pm and the grown ups were finishing up our devo time and carol came out of the girls room looking upset. She and everyone else in the room were scared. They told me that annet and brenda were having scary dreams and no one could go to sleep now. I remember laying in Annet's bed and telling whispering a really long story to them about kittens and flying kites and kids playing soccer. Anyways this story went on and on and totally didn't make sense at all but after about 45 mins all the girls were asleep and I sneaked out of the middle bunk bed and tip toed out the door. mission accomplished :) i think it was sweet carol who lifted her sleepy head and said "auntie jess-ka, thank you"

Jesus, please be with the rafiki kiddos and keep them safe. Bless them and help them grow big and strong and fall in love with you. amen.
