One of my favorite things in Uganda has been the voices of the children. Our house is in the middle of a "neighborhood" of mud huts, so no matter where the kids are, we can hear them. Of course, I can't typically understand them, but their voices are sweet whether they're speaking Acholi or the few English phrases some know!
Whenever we come home, all the neighborhood kids come running and shouting, "Mzungu, stop!" We always stop, shake everyone's hand, and say hello. The next phrase they know is, "Mzungu, give me ball." I always respond, "Ashley, please may I have a ball." They just smile back at me and try to repeat. It's quite cute.
I am so thankful to be here loving on kids in Uganda!
