Hope's Promise Orphanage

Meet Aminata..... she is a 6 month old who is (we think ...) deaf and only partially sighted. Her mother died and her father was unable to cope with her and numerous other kids, so he gave Aminata to this loving home.
I have been working with the helpers there to explain why she is slow to develop and have encouraged them with ways to help her learn using her other senses. She is now feeding well and has even started to smile.
Animata is another of God's little treasures and with time we hope she will develop in her own special way.


After treating several of the kids at this home, it was then time for general play with everyone!!
Craziness erupts!
But what fun we had building houses and snakes out of wooden bricks. These kids love to play when they get the chance, but need surprizingly lots of help with knowing how to play, even with something as simple as wooden bricks.
