For those of you that are wondering what our house looks like, here it is from the front yard. We are blessed to be renting a house built by a Swiss family several years back. They are no longer here and the house became available just as we were moving to Cameroon. We are so blessed!

The kids like to build forts using bamboo and whatever else they find. It entertains them for hours and then they can keep out of the rain.

The green grass that grows freely during the rainy season is a big delight and change for us. I’m sure we have never had such a green yard before.
