Third Day in Uganda!

The days have been so full and exciting. I have forgotten but am being reminded every second how active a four year old and a two year old can be. They do sleep really well though. They are exhausted by eight and go straight to bed and they both nap for around 2 hours so I really can't complain. I am writing the blog while they sleep today.

  Edith has really warmed up to both of us and Erik follows most of what she does. We have done some "firsts". We rode an escalator today in Kampala at a shopping area. They both stopped dead still and starred at it. I realized they had never seen anything like that. They got on and then laughed at themselves as we moved up the stairs. They also were introduced to Pizza (so was our 32 year old driver-Moses) none of them had ever had any. Moses and Edith loved it. Erik who has eaten everything that has been put before him wasn't so thrilled. I think the bread must be hard for him to eat. He gave it an effort though. I used the umbrella stroller for the first time today as well and Erik loves it. He wanted to take it up to our room after we came back home. He doesn't however like for Edith to even touch it. So I guess they really are normal siblings.

  Please pray for us as we head to court tomorrow. We learned of some details from the attorney that can make this a little process a little more difficult. If he approves this we will get an additional court date tomorrow. If he isn't going to approve it we will not get another court date. I don't know what we would do from there. Steve and I are just trying to stay positive and we are praying a lot. We have all our Ugandan friends here praying. Our time is at 12:30 and they have said we will be there for hours. I will blog as soon as I know something. Thank you so much for all your support and prayers. They mean so much to us being this far away from home.
