A Stepping Stone

Well the vaccinations are over and that means only 48 days until departure! I can hardly believe it... it seems like just yesterday the trip was only an idea.

I think the vaccinations were easier that everyone thought. Mrs. Brigham took the prize for the most shots, though!

Mrs. Brigham- 5

Coach Freace- 4

Mr. O'Neil-1..so not fair.

Kaitlyn- 3

Haleigh- 3

Lila-3

Me-3

Mr. O'Neil acted like a pro, bringing his own yellow immunization card.

This does not excuse that he was late, though! Haleigh proved to be brave,

or at least we heard no screams from where we were waiting....Mrs. Brigham got

a little light headed, and Kaitlyn wanted to give herself the shots. Lila said there

might have been a few tears, and of course I got the different nurse...Coach Freace

was just upset that he had to get an extra polio shot.

Thank you, Tim McLane, for setting this all up!

Although we didn't like the shots, it was an exciting day for us all. It was a true

stepping stone on our path to Africa. I can't wait to go back in 6 months for another shot!
