Let the children play



So, the first picture is of the kids in our neighborhood who, taking inspiration from CBW's well digging activities, decided to take it upon themselves to build their own little well. So, they dug a small hole, put in plastic cups and even made a "CBW" sign to put on their little well. Well, how dern cute is that? Surprisingly, their well has yet to produce any water, but then again, neither do some of CBW's. The next picture captures an afternoon of impressive yoga displays, that make me feel soft and uncoordinated in comparison.

It's astounding how creative kids can get when they don't have a room full of toys to distract them. The other day, one of my favorites, Bakayoko, proudly showed me his stash of little treasures (bottle caps, jars and boxes) that he stashes in a tree and visits regularly. I'm going to miss that a lot.
