I re-entered the world of Love Botswana today.  As I walked around the plot it was great to see the smiling faces and excited gasps as teachers, employees, and students reacted to my presence.  It is wonderful to know you have been missed.

I even got to see my baby Lorato, my little pride and joy.  She is one of my students from standard 1 and I just love her to pieces.  She lost her father when she was in Kinder and her mom works very hard to provide for the 3 children.  I adore the little girl and it just melted my heart to see her again.

The young students paraded me around their playground to show off what they could do on the equipment whilst I tried to sit and talk with the teachers. Firaas remarked, “Ms Erin!!! Wow, you came back! From standard 1 to standard 3!” So precious!

Now I am trying desparately to communicate with Jana on a job list for the month that i am here.  I really am looking forward to serving them and giving of my time to them.  She has been quite busy now as God is directing her to be more involved in many areas and she is without an asistant to aid in the normal office tasks.  Anyway, I’m sure I will get a clera vision of her time, but for now I am patiently waiting for her to give me further guidance.

I delight in being back here. It is as if I never left. I just will continue to pray now as God guides my decisions on where and when to return to Africa and settle permanently.
