Prayers for safe arrival, having their eyes open and knowing they are in Gods hands (something very hard for me) I can't wait to here all about the adventures that are going to be stories told for a lifetime. So happy to have your blog and your parents to show us that the kids are not just in a jungle. <br />Lots of love,<br />Jessie vander eyk <br />Emma's mom<br />The kings school -please give big hugs to the missions team from me but give Emma an extra squeeze!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7099573221371512306.post-33730954907544548512014-03-05T20:36:18.240-08:002014-03-05T20:36:18.240-08:00The jigger sounds more gross that it is!

They don't seem to be so common here. People say just don't go barefoot ... but not sure that it makes much difference! Hamna shida though :) Rachel Mongerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03984738827648986580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7099573221371512306.post-50525502901632863302014-03-05T11:48:19.752-08:002014-03-05T11:48:19.752-08:00Ew!

At least it sounds like you guys haven't been afflicted regularly.

I have to say though, looking at your blog photos, Mwanza is more built up than I realised- looks more happening than Dodoma! I hope you are feeling settled there and glad to see you are meeting some great people. Thanks for your comment on our blog too- nice to hear from Tanzania while up here in the Big Smoke of Nairobi!
