Yesterday morning during breakfast the chef here asked the families if we would attend church with her. So for some crazy reason I decided to haul my crew to church. It was a Christian church. This was definitely an experience to remember and I look forward to returning next week. The service was given in Lugandan and in English. It was hard for me to understand the message but the songs I knew. We sang This is the Day Which the Lord has Made and Are God is an Awesome God. We stayed a little over an hour but were told the service lasted around 3 hours. Sadie clung to me during the service and cried anytime I tried to put her down. The chef, Evalynn, held L and a nice lady that sat behind us held H. The girls were well behaved for most of the time. I also had the opportunity to hand the first of the headbands out at church. The little girls were so proud of their new hairbows.
Last night I cooked Krafts macaroni and cheese for dinner. The 3 girls ate 2 whole boxes and L licked her plate clean. Mac n Cheese was a big hit.
I am so grateful to the other families here who have helped me out with the girls. Evalynn who works at the guest house has also been a great help. Last night I was having a difficult getting the girls to bed because L was a bit wild. S and H were tired but couldn't fall asleep because of the commotion. Evalynn came took L to the kitchen with her so I could get the others to sleep.
Today I am doing laundry. Exciting I know. Since I did not know I was getting the girls yet I did not pack clothes for them. I brought one dress for each of them. They have been wearing S's dresses and her pullups. I also did not bring any toys or medicine for them. I am definitely winging it.
