Last night our drive into Kampala was a quiet one. It was late, we were exhausted from 24 hours of travel...but mostly we were unsure of what we were walking into today. We didn't celebrate our departure because this isn't a "yay, everything's done let's go get him" kind of trip. It's a "let's get it done this is ridiculous" kind of trip. :)
This morning we had a meeting with several key people with the agency here and felt very good about our coming week. They know where we're coming from and seem determined to get us home ASAP. Wayne will be leaving next Saturday to take Peyton to Outdoor School so I will be staying here until Charlie is set to return.
We picked him up from the orphanage today and he stopped playing in the yard when he saw us and started screaming "My muzungus (white people) are here!" It was comical. We were told on our way out to the orphanage that whenever he is scolded or corrected he tells the mommas that he is going to report them to his parents. What a handful! :)
Please pray for our lawyer as we try to get him to quickly finish his part in this process.
I've gotta run, there is a four year old picking up the phone, scooping up loose change and hanging all over his daddy. Sigh...
Today was a good day!
