Happy Mother's Day from Shanti Uganda

Yesterday Julia and I left Uganda and returned to Nairobi to finish up the last week of our study abroad program. Seeing as I'm already nostalgic and missing my friends as Shanti, I thought I'd share our Mother's Day photo shoot from the other day.

Julia and I are also missing the other interns back at Shanti

I couldn't possibly complete a Mother's Day post without including a shout-out to my own strong, beautiful, adventurous mother. It's hard to believe that in less than a week I will be seeing her and the rest of my family in Kenya. I love you Mom and I cannot wait to give you a big squeeze!

Kwaheri ya kuonana!
