Earlier today our friend, Mama Mae, took Connor to go love on the babies. Connor got to feed the babies, hold them, and put them down for a nap. She said that she wasn't ready to change their diapers yet. Here are a few photos!
Connor & Latecia
This is baby Darius. Darius was found three days ago in a pit latrine in a local slum. The mother had placed Darius in a sack and dropped the baby into the raw sewage under the floor of the "cho" (toilet). Amazingly, a man saw the bag and was able to fish it out of the sewage, because the sewage level was so high in the toilet. The man then took Darius to the police, who in turn brought Darius to New Life. The nurses are guessing that Darius was born on the 4th, because he only weighs about 3 or 4 lbs. Please keep Darius in your prayers!
Mama Mae, a chubby baby girl (not sure of her name), Connor, and Oliver (one of Connor's favorites). Mama Mae adopted one of her daughters from New Life about 9 years ago, so Connor's been lobbying us to do the same . . .
This is sooooo cool and perfect for Conner! You could use a little color in your family! Smile! Love you guys!
