wedding!

I am in a Ugandan wedding! I'm going to be a bridesmaid. Today the other intern girls and I went to the market to get fitted for dresses for the wedding. Lime green and black! With headwraps, which will probably make me look like a cancer patient. I am quite excited. The wedding is next Saturday. that's what's up.

Today we went to a village where I helped the children make mosaics. I was very impressed with their creativity despite their relative lack of motor skills. I saw many big bellies. They are swollen and tight. The kids I worked with today were so dirty...filthy. Dirt was caked all over their skin, making them look ashy. One of the little girls was trying to wipe paper scraps off her paper, but her hand left dirt stains all over the paper. I still don't know what to do with that.

Highlight of the day: a 3 month old baby named Calvin fell asleep on me.
