I received an email this morning from a friend who is in Kigali and visited the orphanage today (yesterday Kigali time). Here's what she said:
"You are going to love him! His picture doesn't reveal his very happy personality. He is so smiley. Interesting - the nuns couldn't tell who he was when I said Mugisha. I looked around the room and my friend was with me and we both felt like we found him, but they said no. Then we said, "Mugisha Vincent" and then they all knew and it was him. He seems very strong. He has a round belly that is great for his beautiful smile and laugh. I told him his mom and dad were coming to receive him soon and what your names were. The nun was great with him.
They feed them every 3 hours and they get a bottle of millet and a bottle of milk. They also wake them up in the evening every three hours while they are sleeping to feed them and they are usually up in the morning at 5 am."
As you can imagine, I was crying tears of joy and longing as I read her wonderful email. We can't wait to meet him!
Please keep praying for our travel arrangements... things are moving quickly!! :) YEEHAW! We're off on "The Amazing Race" to bring home MUGISHA!
