A Neighborly Visit


Our neighbors right next door are Gertrude and Tom.
They had four daughters when we first moved in. They now have six girls!!!
In a culture that does not often value women, we have some interesting realities in common.
The last day of December their newest family member was born!
Opileni (also Elsie Jayne's Lugbara name) Joanita (after the neighbor!!) Noela was born!
At six weeks we found her the same weight as our biggest four month old!!!


This is precious Emmanuella who came for a little sand box visit after we got to meet her sister!
Gertrude noted what we hear often in town, that Elsie Jayne and Lucy look like twins.
Elsie Jayne was certain that Emma and Lucy looked more like twins cause they are the same height!
