Fatou, my second Mom and Adama's second wife, is a ball of energy. She starts her mornings before the sun comes up, stoking the morning coals before heading out to the family onion and tomato patches to water, a 4km round trip.
She has kids sprawled on her all day long and loves to joke. She also loves to ask me for money just about every other day. I try to say no with a smile and give her bread or milk instead.

Nat. It's been so long. I'm so eager to know what new adventures you've had. Still alive over there?
If so, you may be interested to read about the adventures of Dan Firger in Latin Amercia over on his blog.
Hang in there natty.
