Friends and family have been asking what our days are like here.  A little while back, I recorded our goings-on, and here it is!  Some days we have other evening activities such as Literacy Class at Kwagala (kwagalaproject.org), and Nick often has meetings with Kyampisi Childcare Ministries (kyampisi.org), but this is a typical school day for us!

6:30- get up, breakfast- toast, bananas, yogurt, coffee for the parents (and ACE wanted some noodles and beans from last night)

7:00- get ready for school, put away dry dishes, check the laundry on the line- still wet

8:00- drive to school in Naguru, teach P1 class- Letter J, Tens and Ones, Shapes, Jonah 
(Nick stays home with A and B.)
