Today is Bradley's birthday! He would have been 34 years today and celebrating here in Kenya, away from my family has been really hard. My team mates here have been extremely caring and aware of this special day and have made it as good as possible. I ordered a birthday cake for Bradley and shared with all the children here. It was a great surprise and very much appreciated. Then Gladys, the main kitchen cook, made a lovely cake for Bradley for the adults to share after dinner. It's been a hard day for my family and I wish we could have been together.
Besides celebrating Bradley, we were able to pick up some of the shoes we purchased for them, with others coming in a month after the shoemaker has finished making them. The children were tremendously excited!

Another highlight for today was our luncheon at Eunice Muindi's house. We felt very honored to have been invited and spent a lovely afternoon with her.
