Home in the valley









this photo cracks me up because there is an address on the window

I love that he is laughing

Marcus - one of the kids at GGA
His eyelashes killed me -so long and beautiful





Khanysile and I - right before we got in the van to leave





This is one of my favs of Khanysile. I think it shows her beauty and her pain

We moved all those cinder blocks... we worked hard.
