[billy, danny, kate. & i on our mini safari.] 

Yes, it is true. I am shamelessly behind on my blogging. For those of you who have emailed or messaged, let this be your confirmation that I am indeed still alive. I could blame my communicational negligence on the sparse & agonizingly slow internet connection in Africa (which would be more than justifiable) or I could just be honest & say that I am spent.  

For some reason, over the past month, I have found it unusually difficult to write. This, however, is no indication of my current emotional or physical state. I am doing great. I am growing. I am learning. I am, daily, being stretched beyond my once narrow view of my own capabilities. It’s incredible really.

I think what it comes down to is the fact that I am learning so much & at such an escalated pace that the processing stage is stalling, or lagging behind rather.  So beg my pardon & bear with me while my mind finds its way into the present. And for now, let these pictures step in where my words fail.
