Tond na ya taaba

Tond na ya taaba; Oh! Oh!
Tond na ya taaba, Tond na ya taaba;
oh jah paga fond na ya taaba

[We’ll meet again; oh! Oh!
We’ll meet again, We’ll meet again,
In heaven, we’ll meet again]

Last night, as we spent some time celebrating together (we had a mini "fete"), this was one of the songs the kids chose to sing. It was, quite simply, a perfect selection. I have found myself humming it to myself all day today.
My last few days in Yako were very blessed, just as was all my time in Yako. I enjoyed lots of time with the kids and spent some time visiting with our tantines.
This morning I bid farewell to the Ghounghin church, and this afternoon to all our children. A day full of saying “until I see you next” has not been easy. It has however, been peaceful.
