Hmmm

Well to say the least it feels completely normal. No unnecessary anxiety or looming fear. But the past few days have been a bit crazy....
Friday there was a taxi strike. No big deal right? Only when strikes occur, riots do as well, open fire, tear gas, public arresting and beatings too. Just in a normal days work. A friend of ours was waiting for her friends in a restaurant on Friday. She heard commotion outside. Her friends had been arrested and beaten. They were taken to the police station to be questioned. Many other cases were like this. Bystanders were arrested and taken for questioning. ONly there were so many, some had to stay the night there. Horrible system..
But by 3:00 everything had cleared and it was a typical day in Kampala.
Today, Chris and I were in town getting medical supplies and food for the home. We pulled out and a boda boda ran into the side of the car. Oops. Two hours later it was all good. We took the man to the clinic. No broken bones. Just a few bruises and bumps. We paid for his boda to be fixed as this is his only way for an income. But God was watching out for us. Neither Chris or I were hurt and the driver was not hurt badly. Plus, it is very common for a mob to form and become angry when a wreck occurs and white people are involved. I thought for a second it was happening, then a man named Abraham was standing out of my window and seriously says, "Don't be scared. It'll be alright."
What? Perfect english. Perfect timing. He came to the clinic with us and translated for the entire episode. I am convinced he was an angel. And he had two very cute kids.

Besides these past two episodes, things have been relatively quite. The kids are testing this week for the end of the term. Then 3 weeks of holiday! Yeah! All the kids are healthy. There are many scrapes and cuts that I am way too excited to attempt to heal.

I am learning and growing. Please continue to pray for protection and love from our Father.
