I am on the internet!

Praise the Lord for internet in Uganda. I have many first impressions but the strangest one is definitely the catchphrase bird. You know the beeping noise that the catchphrase game makes? It like slowly speeds up as you pass it around. you know? Everywhere I go I hear that beeping noise in the same pitch as the catchphrase game. It is so strange. I thought maybe it was people's cell phones or something. Last night I finally figured out that it is a freaking bird. It drives me crazy and I am the only person who even notices it. How American am I that a bird hooting reminds me of an electronic game!

So do you think catchphrase bird the official name for the bird? I still can't believe you are in UGANDA. Princess Kiwi... remember the sorta fairy godmother/crazy lady at Marshall Fields who said "go with God on one shoulder and your mother on the other" sort of as a blessing when you were going to the dance? well I offer the same blessing for you as you fly even further from the nest. (the catchphrase bird nest)Tell Michelle that maybe you do need her to be one more mom cuz this mom's head is still spinning that her daughter is in Uganda! I said that already didn't I? about you being in UGANDA. i'm so proud of you and happy for you and I know that you are right where God wants you to be right now.
I love you,
mom
