And to put you in a good mood, here is a picture of the last Children’s Day at the Kitengesa Library. It was on February 21, and the children came with their teachers in a minibus from Buwunga, three or four miles away. These Children’s Days are beginning to bear fruit: last Saturday, when the library was quiet, a couple came in who had first come on one of these occasions.
