DISQUS

Eric...thinking of you all the time...hope you do not get seriously sick. Let us know when you are coming back. Love.

Picture of the classroom and your description fits the way we went to school in Vietnam: 50-60 kids in a classrom, elbow to elbow. This was one of the reason why no one was allowed to write left-handed. When visitor or teacher entered the room, all stood up and said greeting in unison. We did learn a lot though and became successful contributing human beings. Let's hope the beautiful children at Mugunga will become wonderful adults. War is so primitive and aweful!

Thanks for sharing your unique experience in Africa. We miss you. Love, Mom

Eric...thanks for keeping us in the loops. We forgot to check this site and kept waiting for e mail. This is very thorough. The picture with the teachers are great.
Good work.
Thanks for being concerned with my possible worry in the previous note. I cannot help but feel that you are in danger from not just the war, but also the driving, being exposed to diseases (hospital environment, animals (chimps can give you infections through skin breakage)), etc. Please come back safely. Can't wait to see you back.
Love, Mom

How did you get to be surrounded by so many cuties? Where are they from? and what are they doing in Congo?

YOu will have a chance to compare the frustration of working in Africa with that in Vietnam a few years ago. Hope it won't be too bad.
Love, Mom
