Life is such a pickle: dilly, sweet, fresh.
First, we count down to Lesotho and now we count down to
home…
We have 5 days left to this wonderful adventure! Only a couple days left here in the
traditional lands of our sons…the land that brought our boys into our full view
and the land that has nourished them to this day.
We will be both relieved to be returning
home, and sad to be leaving this wonderful home.
From the Basuto shoulder dance, to the dance on the
trampoline, to road racing on plastic motorcycles, to good mornings with
peacocks, the days are full of life and love.
The lodge we are staying at has a large rec area with a toy-like
inventory comparable to Disneyland to our boys.
They woke up this morning and in pajamas and half sleep, requested
emphatically that they play with the motorcycles.
A walk into the village, down the dusty red trails, past the
ponies and into a craft market – the pictures of these mountains will forever
be in our hearts. The moon is full
tonight and the boys are near sleep…tomorrow we head to Maseru, hopefully to
pick up the citizenship visas for the boys, and a few last minute treats before
we head back to South Africa for our final days.
