6am Phonecalls

From time to time this year, Isata and Rosemarie have called me to say hello...usually at 6am our time. I always wake up so quickly when I hear their voice, it is so exciting to hear from them! They are both doing well and constantly reminding me of how thankful they are that we are supporting their studies. On Friday morning, Rosemarie called and was very excited to tell me that she is now completing her practicums. She has a class one right now and is using the books that we gave her in the summer. The books are written by Sierra Leonean authors and so I purchased some for each of our teachers last summer. I told her that I was likely returning to Sierra Leone this fall and she has invited me to come to the university. It would be so great to see it all in person.
