These two children, Claudia and Mackenson-- brother and sister, are our newest residents. Gave them a ride from town today and they thoroughly enjoyed being in a car. A first for them. Their mother is handicapped and cannot care for them. Claudia is obviously malnourished (hair color and her size and weight for her age) and her brother, Mackenson, has a nasty injury (left eyebrow) from a run-in with a barbed-wire fence.
I am sure they will thrive with their new family at Vilaj Espwa! Be sure to show us an updated photo in a couple of months when Claudia's hair is dark as it should be and Mackenson is healed and happy.
