The planting has begun...


Moses and I went to the "nursery" today and picked out our starter plants. We chose eggplant, onions, tomatoes, green peppers, cabbage and chinese cabbage. There was no okra so we will try seeds. When the kids came home, Chelsea said, "How are they growing already?" Wow, is it hard to bite my tongue:)

Bradley has a field trip to the Peace Centre on December 5th for a Christmas Party. His class will be presenting "The Nativity Story"- how cool is that!! Bradley's teacher is due to have a baby in February and she has had to prepare 3 performances in 4 weeks - a "land use" skit, the Nativity performance on December 5 and Grease on December 10th. She will be exhausted and ready for our Christmas break.

Bradley's class will also be in the "Sound of Music" school performance this weekend. His class will be performing the puppet show scene. We will be going to the Saturday night performance.

Tomorrow night we are going to Hillsong United performance here at the Lusaka Fairgrounds. Hillsong is a christian music group from Australia and has been touring South Africa and added Zambia to their tour. This is quite a big deal for this area. Tickets were around $5. We are praying for no rain as it is an outdoor concert.

Chelsea's class will have an improv night next Tuesday. We attended an improv night last week with the other Year 7 class and it was really funny. An amateur "Whose line is it?" My kids laughed and laughed.

Things are getting busy around here as the end of school approaches and we begin a peaceful, joyful Christmas season- that is my prayer anyway.
