News from Kenya

Well it was a busy week last week. Things are pretty tense in Nairobi, since the Kenyan army started fighting in Somalia against a terrorist group who have now threatened to blow up places in Nairobi. Last week there were two grenade attacks in the city centre and embassy's are advising against visiting certain areas in the city. Everywhere security has been tightened, more checks, more security personnel and more security measures. Even from school we have had a few e-mails about the different measures they have put in place. Please pray for this situation, that peace would come to Nairobi and there would be a resolution to the conflict.

On a lighter note, here are a few pictures from daily life. One of the relief pilots was able to deliver a net for our trampoline. Great fun for boys and Transformers! We had a water fight on one of the sunny Sunday afternoons. All the kids against the neighbour's dad.

Last week was sports day for Caleb on Tuesday and the others on Thursday. Caleb was thrilled that his team won. The older kids event is more serious and less fun and I didn't take my camera, so sorry no photos.

Today is Bethany's 9th birthday. We had the party on Saturday with a mixture of girls from school and MAF. Birthday partys are not my favourite thing, but it went well and Bethany was happy, which is the main thing.
