Hi Friends! Happy Friday- at least I think it’s Friday! To be honest, I don’t which way is up or which way is down these days. We’ve been quarantined for 7 weeks and very rarely do I know the day of the week. When the quarantine first started, I thought to myself “Now will be the perfect time to get caught up on all the blog post I want to write” but I have really struggled to find a new normal being at home with Baker all day and trying to get work done for my actual, full- time job. My sleep schedule is way off, my days go by…

Happy Friday, friends! I’m back today to share our first couple of days in the capital city of Kigali from Rwanda 2018. Thinking back to this trip, these days were hard but man, were they good! Baker had just turned two and required someone’s undivided attention most of the time, meaning either Cory or myself had to sit a few things out but I’m so thankful for the opportunities and exposure to experiences she’s gotten from such a young age.

I’m back! Holla. And at this rate, I should be done recapping Rwanda 2018 & 2019 in about 4 years.  For real though, my goal is to finish Rwanda 2018 recaps over Christmas break. I have one week left and I’m about halfway through. I can do it! Right?! In case you need a refresher, you can catch up here.

I had really high hopes of making more progress on the Rwanda 2018 recaps before we left for Rwanda 2019 (heck, even before I went back to school) but clearly, that didn’t happen. I’d really like to focus any free time (what even is that?) I have this fall to get the recaps (2018 & 2019) done so I’m not losing my mind the week before we leave next summer. Ha!
