Our time is coming to a close here. We have mixed feelings. I have fallen in love with Kenya and it's people. There is a way of life here that we are missing back home. We have been challenged to keep some of what we've experienced here and bring it home with us. I went and saw Miriam yesterday and bought more scarves. She thanked me for helping feed her son. I don't know the full story, but Miriam has a seven year old son. She is unmarried, so she sells her goods two days a week here in Kijabe to support her and her son. She loves the Lord and has an amazing spirit. I walked with her and visited with her and she shared some of her life with me. I was amazed at how fast she walked and hiked up these roads with flip flops on. She's amazing. I hope to see her again before we leave. And Amy--I gave her a BIG hug!! I don't think I scared her...too much!
Blessings,
Amy
