Here I am with Emmanuella... she is a little unhappy because I was in the middle of feeding her at the time and she hates to be burped!! But, as unladylike as she thinks it is, she always seems to feel better after the dainty belches she gives.
Here is Mama Paula feeding Mary. Mary is a very healthy eater!! At this meal, she ate some cereal, a fruit and vegetable pouch, sent from my mom <3, and some water. As you can see our cat, whom Mama Paula calls Francine, is trying to get in on the meal too!! Really cute!
Here is Mary Clare with a group of kids in the evening. The kids absolutely loved Mama Mary, the stories she told them and the games she played with them.
Here is a Christmas morning picture of the children. They have on their new Christmas clothes and "specs", as they call them. What a joyful and happy day it was, with pancakes in the morning, peanut butter cookies and lots of dancing and toffees!! (toffee=candy)
I am sorry to say I do not have a photo yet of the Chief with his tribe. Hopefully my blogging counterpart can supply some. He really was there... I promise!!
Despite the distance that separates us. my heart remains with these children, and probably always will. They certainly are living saints... love them so much!! xoxo
