We took some of the refugees to the beach today. It was hilarious. One of the women has twin girls, probably three years old, terrified of the water. But we had to be in the water because there were other kids to supervise. So we carried them in, but had to keep them above the waterline or else they screamed. They were like little monkeys with strong spindly arms. When they got heavy in our arms, you just had to let go and they'd hang on to you for dear life. And they did get heavy. Funny.
Oh, it's a tough life this missionary business. Days at the beach, afternoons in coffee shops, pizza parties. How do we cope?
And I got really burnt. I didn't sleep for days afterwards because my back hurt so much. Super ouchy.
