It is 7am and I am bundled up on the front porch with my laptop. I love being up early inUganda ; It is the only time when it feels cold outside. Hmm….cold….it is all relative. In Georgia , we might call this just a little chilly, but I wrap the blanket tighter around my legs, hug the warm cup of tea and envision all the brown dusty grass suddenly as pure white snow. Snow??? I am from GEORGIA for crying out loud, why am I homesick for snow??? Note to self: No more watching White Christmas.
The over eager birds who proudly call out to the world bring me back to reality. Not to be outdone, the neighbor’s rooster, who as-a-matter-of-fact has been crowing since 5am, decides to dominate the morning symphony. No playlist on my ipod can compete.

I love the first photo. I can just see Precious Ramotswe from the Ladies' Number one Detective Agency sitting there with her red tea. We miss you and keep you and your work in our prayers.
I too am a Ladies' Number One Detective Agency fan so it is not difficult to place my "Precious" daughter in such a location. I love you, Julie, and am proud of your love for God's creation even to the other side of the world.
