One of my teammates received Flat Stanley in the mail from her cousin and we all pitched in to give him a wonderful Mbale welcome! Here are some photos documenting Flat Stanley’s visit with us. If you don’t know who Flat Stanley is, ask your nearest early childhood educator!
(We made sure that Flat Stanley had a nice bed complete with a mosquito net so that he wouldn't get attacked by mosquitoes at night.)
(He came to love the tasty treat that is milk in a box!)
(Flat Stanley with James and Noeli Luchivya eating bread and drinking chai.)
(Flat Stanley came to our office staff meeting on Tuesday morning and shared thoughts with Peace, Judith and Jennifer.)
(Flat Stanley with Heidi and I enjoying some coffee before the office staff meeting.)
(Flat Stanley was very helpful during his stay with us. He helped sort through the stacks of books that are being cataloged for the MTI library.)
(When the books were ready to be shelved, Flat Stanley helped put the MTI stamp on them.)
(He even worked on his alphabetizing skills and helped organize the card catalog!)
(Flat Stanley borrowed Becca's phone when they were working in the library. Maybe he was calling home to tell them what a good time he was having!)
(Flat Stanley wanted to help me with my work at the office. He is a very talented little fellow!)
(He also helped me make copies of materials for office day in the print room.)
(When Flat Stanley was helping in the print room he found this really old pair of glasses and wanted to take a goofy picture.)
(Flat Stanley has such a servant heart! He volunteered to sweep the floors!)
(We were all amazed to find out that Flat Stanley could read the Kalenjin New Testament!)
(Flat Stanley was eager to learn about the AIDS Orphans program and enjoyed reading about the children that are being sponsored.)
(He also helped Peace distribute medication to those who needed it.)
(Flat Stanley thought the flowers at MTI were very beautiful.)
(Michael showed Flat Stanley how to be a guard at MTI.)
(Flat Stanley wanted to learn how to drive a motorcycle, but we didn't think it was such a great idea.)
(We thought about letting him drive the truck, but he couldn't see over the steering wheel, so we didn't think that was such a great idea either.)
(This was Flat Stanley's first experience with public transportation here in Mbale. He had to hold on tight when riding the boda boda because he is so small and light!)
(These kind ladies helped Flat Stanley learn to pump water from a well.)
(Flat Stanley visited the Mbale Mission School and made some great new friends!)
(He enjoyed swinging at recess.)
(He also thought that the sand boxes were lots of fun.)
(Flat Stanley loves bananas!)
(Even in Africa, there is "Always Coca-Cola!")
(Flat Stanley on a "Power Off Night".)
(Flat Stanley was excited to take a picture with the map of Uganda so that he could show his friends back home where he had been!)
We all thoroughly enjoyed Flat Stanley's visit to Uganda and we hope that he had a safe trip home!
