Hi, Friend,

Remember the old nursery rhyme "Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush"? In Uganda, young children really do wash their clothes, just like in the song!

These cute girls were tackling their weekend chores together—and making it look like fun! My spirits are always lifted by the sweet voices of children carrying Luganda melodies across the compound as they work.

I have another glimpse of Ugandan life lined up for next month's Fourth Friday Foto. Until then, enjoy the long days of summer.

With all my best,

Elaine
