We had a wonderful day today at Tumaini School. It was great to be back and to see all of the students! We saw a good number of our sponsored students and were able to distribute their letters from their sponsors as well as getting some good pictures. It is incredible how much they grow in one year! Carolyn and I state here and now that the students are getting older but we are staying the same!!! Along with getting bigger, these students are maturing so beautifully. We were able to get some video clips of the students giving their testimonies about how being sponsored has changed their lives. It was so good to hear how well they are doing. 

We were also able to catch up with the terrific trio of students - Faith, Quivaline and Vivian to see how they are doing in their last year of high school. So hard to believe that my little Faith will be a high school graduate soon!

We also were able to do a bit of shopping at the bead ladies group who make those wonderful beaded bowls we bring back every year. It was good to see them and catch up with their news.

Our dedicated 'Bead Ladies' who do such wonderful work!
We spent all day at Tumaini between getting photos of students and catching up with their news. It was a super day.

Tomorrow we return to Tumaini to talk to some of the post secondary students that were supported by Kids for Kids as well as doing some more interviews.

​We will start the long trek back to Canada tomorrow evening so tomorrow will be another bitter sweet day of goodbyes. ​​

As well - Johnstone - who popped in today to see how we were doing so we grabbed a 'student' photo of the chairman of the board!
