Rob returned from Nairobi on Saturday and arrived with another guest, Bo Beck. Sunday was a busy day and so I offered to help do the grocery shopping on Monday. Rebekah, Bo and I ventured into the market and got the needed fruits and vegetables for the week. We proceeded to our local grocery store and got the items needed there. Then I dropped Bo off to finish up some town business with Rob, Rebekah and I returned to Sweya. Later, in the afternoon I got a message from Rob that we had two more children from Social Services. Since he and Bo were already in town, they went to pick the children up and took them out to Tumaini. These two children bring our total to 50.
