Meet Thobani




I've decided that trying to explain living here is far too daunting a task for me. So in an attempt to give you some insight into how incredible things are here, I am going to slowly introduce you to some of the phenomenal people who I cross paths with everyday. Thobani is the young gentleman on the right. The fella with the dredlocks is also wonderful and I will tell you all about him sometime soon (I can't recall his name, but we call him Lil Wyclef... can't you see the resemblance?).

Anyways, Thobani is a wonderful 5 year old who I see 3 times a week at 1000 HCH. He lives with his dad and has an extremely difficult situation at home. He is by far the naughtiest fellow in the creche. He likes to walk up to you and sock you right in the hip. But he has stolen my heart away. When I feel any sadness, he seems to know that I do. Thobani walks up to me with his arms out and I can't imagine anything better in the world and I forget what I was sad about.

So, I hope that each of you have someone to hug you and make you feel that way. I wish it were Thobani. But, we can't all be so lucky :).
