Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”
~Matthew 19:14
My name is Buju. I am 3 years old. Compared to all the other kids at the Preschool, I am tiny, so tiny that I sometimes wear 0-3 month pants as shorts to school. I love to cuddle with the teachers and often fall asleep in the middle of the morning.
My name is Siviwe. I am five years old. One of the teachers calls me "Stitch" because that's what my voice sounds like. I am not treated very well at home and it shows at school. I go from being sweet and snuggly one minute to pinching and hitting people the next. I have the best smile you've ever seen and love to run and play!
My name is Avelina. I am five years old. You can't see it in this picture, but I'm wearing my soccer shirt. I wore it yesterday. And the day before. And the day before that. I wear it every day to school. But I still have a huge smile on my face every day too!
My name is Innocent. I am five years old. Usually, I have a very serious look on my face, but I love the camera and smile every time I see one! I am a good and quiet student, but wish I could just be myself and come out of my shell.
My name is Baseta. I am five years old. I love to run and play, but most of all, I love to sing! I also love people and am usually one of the first to run up to hug the teachers. I crave attention and try to get it every chance I get. My mom sells fruit and vegetables not far from the school. She also helps cook at the school. Buju is my little brother.
