Little Fiston is such a sweet kid and he would try to look into my room in the morning to see if I was in there or not. You can’t see through the outside.

Big Yves probably never expected to be called “Big” Yves as he is 18 and still not so big. But we took in the eight year old Yves recently. It has been a treat to watch Big Yves mentoring and taking care of his new, younger brothers. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b93c7ae4b0453d1169102e/1548957908358-N797KEX676R3X3EG8NNG/IMG_0803.jpg Blog - New Home, Same Home 2019 This was our attempt at a family photo. There are more kids we help that had taken off to boarding school when this photo was taken.

I guess I wasn’t the only one. I saw Becky soon after and she was in tears because she was so happy to see Evode on his feet again and able to be with the kids again. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b93c7ae4b0453d1169102e/1548958097027-MOOSRLRI26RA9PW03H1I/IMG_0785.jpg Blog - New Home, Same Home 2019 With all of the little kids, it isn’t easy for just one of them to get the space to explore the guitar and try it out. I noticed Christian was extremely into old time Rwanda music. He also was always by my side anytime I was playing guitar. I took this photo when it was raining one afternoon and the kids were napping. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b93c7ae4b0453d1169102e/1548958162561-IL0HUUZ7UYE3PFMJSLGV/IMG_0855.JPG Blog - New Home, Same Home 2019 This will be Little Yves’s photo on his sponsor card we will send to his eventual sponsor https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b93c7ae4b0453d1169102e/1548958209437-DT6B0CGYQH77ROJ3IZNA/IMG_0883.JPG Blog - New Home, Same Home 2019 I always like to use the Kinyarwanda phrase “komera.” It means “Be strong.” It is used for anything and always as a way to try to give strength to the receiver. I specifically had the kids do this on the chalkboard so a friend of mine who is undergoing intense chemotherapy would feel the love from Rwanda. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b93c7ae4b0453d1169102e/1549482353144-C3JE1GV4KA8WMDDOCTBH/IMG_0723.JPG Blog - New Home, Same Home 2019 Here is Little Fiston working really hard and efficiently! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b93c7ae4b0453d1169102e/1549482424509-CL5PYUYTXRPR9LDO4OWT/IMG_0750.JPG Blog - New Home, Same Home 2019 Our friend was installing lights for the boys study room.

This is their main bedroom. It is in the side structure we have had a for a few years now. Eventually, we will have them move in to the first floor of the house when we can finish it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b93c7ae4b0453d1169102e/1549482622462-URKL1WSUISR4S6EX8XTK/IMG_0771.JPG Blog - New Home, Same Home 2019 It is fun to go run errands and come home to these goons greeting you before you enter https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b93c7ae4b0453d1169102e/1549482697125-OKERXEII5MA031COPYE0/IMG_0766.JPG Blog - New Home, Same Home 2019 David shows off the boys’ kitchen in use.

However, now older, his mom is capable of keeping him with her during his holidays from school. I miss our time but this is the way it should be. We still support his school fees. I found him like this waiting for a bus when I was doing the same with another one of our kids. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b93c7ae4b0453d1169102e/1549482886671-ZP2JQDGK09PE8UKSJO8Z/IMG_0777.JPG Blog - New Home, Same Home 2019 It was a Monday routine for Evode and I to go to get his weekly medicine for his Tuberculosis. Afterwards we would stop by a local restaurant that our kid Francois now has a job at. He will be saving his money for the next handful of months until he is able to find a place he can afford and start his life. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b93c7ae4b0453d1169102e/1549483056041-9PRBXGLRNDOJZIHPV233/IMG_0796.JPG Blog - New Home, Same Home 2019 The study room being fully utilized https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b93c7ae4b0453d1169102e/1549483114938-D0878QUNKSFX9YQCVIPR/IMG_0829.JPG Blog - New Home, Same Home 2019 I was walking outside. Peering into the study room, I could see Big Yves putting on a lesson for the younger kids. I loved it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b93c7ae4b0453d1169102e/1549483180098-LVO320461769OOMHM705/IMG_0715.JPG Blog - New Home, Same Home 2019 We still have one cat named Hero. Hero is a pretty awesome cat and that is coming from a dog guy. I love when he gets to cuddling with some of the kids because that type of culture takes time to cultivate in Rwanda unfortunately. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b93c7ae4b0453d1169102e/1549483303404-SV0S23TFNXMQ6STOBTJF/IMG_0751.JPG Blog - New Home, Same Home 2019 I like this picture because it shows how the first floor of the house is getting utilized in many ways but also shows how it is not finished yet. You can see Muneza lounging on a chair, Mugisha getting his hair cut, and Lewis learning how to install lights. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55b93c7ae4b0453d1169102e/1549483467733-OTYWETB8ONA027VSPI9C/IMG_0761.JPG Blog - New Home, Same Home 2019 The little ones learning a traditional game called Igisoro.
