On Tuesday when I moved in with Gogo, I spent the afternoon hanging out with kids in her crèche (preschool). Dithembe [a chubby 3-yr old I fell in love with during September] was very excited to see me again. However, at one point when about 12 other kids were crowding around me playing, he went off by himself to the side and pouted – quite clearly peeved that he couldn’t get close to get my attention. After I made eye-contact with him, he pouted all the more. And then a few minutes later he came over, full-out smacked one of the girls closest to me, and then returned to his pouting position. Gogo and I laughed so hard later when I told her this story later that night!!! I missed laughing with her . . . truly am thankful to be back in Langa!
