Since getting a bike for Christmas, there’s been no stopping Madelaine. She likes to go on bike rides around our neighbourhood with Daddy, even though it’s thirsty work in this heat. Look out Tour de France, here she comes!

In December, Rob’s parents came to visit and Rob’s Dad got chance to preach (with interpreter) at a church not far from Cotonou. Here he is in full flow!

At the end of January, one of Ruth’s two front teeth finally fell out (it had been dangling for ages!) Here she is, complete with gap (she’s the one on the left, by the way!)

In January, I helped run an ethnomusicology workshop with some Moba musicians. They composed and recorded 8 Bible-based songs in their own style and language. Awesome stuff!
