More random photos

Just some random photos for your viewing pleasure...mainly because I'm too tired to express any real thoughts.
Little Prince asleep in our car after a fun day on the ship (we watched Finding Nemo)
Baby George by our car. A prime example of one way disease is spread here. Their children crawl on the ground where the chickens and other animals have been...the children touch and eat things that cause disease and then they get sick and many times die.

Baby Joanna...remember her? She is the baby where we fixed her cleft lip and then she ended up in cardiac arrest and on a ventilator. She is doing fine. She wouldn't stop crying so the photo isn't the best but you can see her 'normal' face.

Emmanual, Mawi and Handful in their new school uniforms. Their mom passed away a couple months ago and they are now being raised by their Aunt Grace (along with Baby George).
Beautiful Mawi...I adore her. She has this little pipsqueak voice and talks 100 miles an hour and I never understand a word she says.

Sharing the road with sheep, as usual. BTW, they are sheep, not goats. You can tell because their tails are down. If they looked just like this but their tails are up, then they are goats.
Movies in Liberia. They are little huts with a tv and a satellite dish. These boys are watching the movie without paying.

The little girl on the right is practicing for mother hood. She is carrying her stuffed raccoon on her back the same way mothers carry their babies.

Peace,
Michele
