World Vision Farewell Party

Today Eric's colleagues said goodbye to us via beat poetry, choral singing, and roasts.
One highlight was from Jeff Brown who explained Zambia through graphs.  Apparently over time each of the following will decrease for us:
  • # of pieces in our safari wardrobe
  • # of times we ask if the water is safe to drink
  • # of times we ask when an event will finally start
  • # of times we ask when an event will finally end
  • the need to share our "wisdom" with Zambians
Our friends at World Vision have shared significant life events with us: our engagement, marriage, loss of Eric's dad, new home, Alexandra's birth, Isaac's birth, Oliver's birth, Oliver's heart surgery and subsequent hospitalizations, and many, many holidays.  We will miss you greatly.  Thank you for honoring us today.
