For those interested, here is an e-mail that I received from Teresa this afternoon...
HI! KIDS,AND EVERYONE! WE MADE IT INTO ZAMBIA THIS MORNING SAFELY. IT IS 8 O'CLOCK HERE AND I LITERALLY HAVE NOT HAD MORE THAN A FEW 5 MIN FITS OF SLEEP SINCE WE LEFT. TODAY WE WENT TO SEE A COUPLE OF THE WORKSHOPS, SCHOOLS, BUILDINGS, ETC. THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN BUILT ON PREVIOUS TRIPS. THEN WE WENT TO A LITTLE MARKET AND GOT TO HAGGLE WITH PEOPLE FOR THEIR WARES. IT TRUELY IS AN ART. BECAUSE I AND EVERYONE ELSE ARE SO SLEEP DEPRIVED WE ARE ALL ZOMBIES, AND SLAP-HAPPY. FLYING INTO THE COUNTRY WAS AMAZING IN ITSELF...EVEN THE CLOUDS LOOKED DIFFERENT. THE PEOPLE ARE VERY POLITE AND HAPPINESS IS LITERALLY PART OF THEIR CULTURE, IF THAT MAKES ANY SENCE.I AM SO BLESSED TO HAVE BEEN ABLE TO MAKE THIS TRIP. ALREADY I SEE HOW IN AMERICA WE HAVE SO MUCH, BUT SO LITTLE.... I MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SEND OUT ANOTHER E-MAIL FOR A WHILE, BUT WILL WHEN WE ARE BACK IN E-MAIL LAND. I LOVE AND MISS YOU ALL VERY MUCH. KISS ALL THE GRAND BABIES. TERESA, COULD YOU FORWARD THIS TO AND ? thanks!! love MOM, GRAMMIE, TERESA
