Home is Where the Heart is

Klint Ostermann • January 26, 2014

We closed on the house we have lived in for the past seven years.  We had so many memories in that home and leaving it for the last time was difficult.  We know in our head that we have to close the door on our past life to open the door to our new life in Uganda, but it is still hard to do in reality.

It has been said that home is where the heart is and we have come to realize the truth in that statement.  501 S Ash is just a house that was formerly our home, but we now have a home at 405 S Ash at Vicki’s parent’s house.  Our family is here in this house so it is now home for the next five months.

The weird thing about this is that our heart is also in Uganda because we left part of it there when we visited in November.  It will be hard to leave Archer City in June, but I know that we will be home at Plot #8 Kiira Lane in Jinja Uganda because that is where our heart will be.

We arrived safely back in Uganda after a great trip to the States! We so loved getting to see many of our family and friends while we were back, but we really missed Uganda.

We are wrapping up a very busy 2019!
