some beautiful kids that i spent time with over the last portion of my trip...

abi, you are so beautiful.

anna! cheesing after munching on some avocado.

abi, who was abandoned at the hospital as a horribly malnourished baby, now lives with her new parents and 20 adopted brothers and sisters.

peter! he called me "baba" and cried out of jealousy if i picked up other kids. he was slated to be taken in by a home after i left. hopefully that has happened.

and a few months earlier...a sister dresses her brother's hair in rural madagascar.
