Here we are eating traditional Zambian food, buhobe and relish. It's basically like thick grits and cabbage with onions and tomatoes. It's really good! Madylanne LOVES it. Teresa made it for us, as you can see on the bottom. Thanks Teresa!
Here is Nana (Melynda's Mom) amid all the goodies she brought with her for us...thank you to all of you who contributed to this! Madylanne is helping pull a card out of an envelope in the top photo. The bottom photo is of Nana holding Matthew for the first time. 
Here are some candid shots of the fam these days. Madylanne loves to pose with Matthew, can you tell?? :)
Here are some of Matthew's first Lozi visitors here at our house: Teresa, who is our language helper, is on top, and on bottom is Sepo, our dear sister in the Lord. Sepo is showing me how to wear a citange and put Matthew in it. She makes it look easy but I am not so good at it yet. When he is big enough I will definitely put him on my back though!!!
We use this water filter, called a Katadyn, to filter all our water since the water we use comes out of the river. It was a gift from the Women's Missionary Union. Without this filter we would have to boil all our water before drinking it. We thank God for this gift, and the WMU! And, as our brother in love Greg says, what a perfect example of how Jesus is the living water. When we drink from HIS well we will overflow!!! 
Here is Madylanne having so much fun jumping on her new trampoline...with Rita, our helper's daughter. She loves for US to jump on it with her too! The sideways shot (sorry I didn't edit that) is of Madylanne in her fairy get up, and at the bottom she is looking cute with her pig her daddy bought her in Joburg, whom she has named "Alex the Fierce." What a riot!
