Day 21 (Already?)

I have been in Kitale for 3 weekes as of today! I can't believe it. Where has the time gone? I feel as if I have only been here a few days, but when I think back to the flight from LAX it seems like ages ago. My week currently consists of working at Sister Freda's Medical center Monday-Wednesday. I help out in the pharmacy, caring for patients, and when there is nothing to do at the hospital I hang out with the children that live there full time under the care of 2 women that were hired by Sister Freda. Those children light up my day and I care for all of them so much already! On thursday, Ashley and I conduct art classes for the Street kid drop-in center where they have 3 levels of classes. We love spending time with those kids, they are all so sweet! Fridays are pool days! Richard(Freda's husband) picks up the 6 kids that stay at Freda's Center and we teach swim lessons and play in the pool for hours with the kids. We enjoy that so much and the kids do as well!
I am having the time of my life here and I am so glad that I can share it with you! More posts will be coming soon-hopefully!
