Some of My Mothers

This is me at church on a slow but very eventful Wednesday night. Some of the mothers were on their way to Italy and I had my camera so made their going away service a bit more fun by snapping photos.

Mother Elise (and aunt) brought me back a small Italian puse.

Zach, the last one

Lilly and ZachLilly & Zach

I think I baby sat for Sister Whitlock since 2009. I just graduated from college and started working with children in my neighborhood and at the church. During the convocation that year and for the next seven years I had fun taking her children all over the city every time they visited New York. Now her baby, Zach is as a big boy. He’s in the second grade!  He is the only one who ask me if I can take him out.  All her kids grew up. I did too. Now, I get paid to do what I did for free and it’s not as fun.

Porta Potties

Porta Potties

Why do kids love Porta Potties?? They all wanted to ‘use the bathroom badly’ when they saw the porta potties.

Venezuelen Flags

Laquan and Jerimiah

At the Concert, we were given Venezuelen flags. The kids looked at me very seriously and asked: What about the American Flag?
