Millicent, our Branch President's wife is so fun. She was trying to teach me how to carry water on my head. She could balance a five gallon bucket and dance while doing it. You can see how I did with a half liter jug.
You wrap a scarf up and put it on your head. It is called a "touch" at least that is how it sounds.
Sister Dalley in front of the church with Mary. She is a 14 year old Catholic girl who lives in a dilapidated shack in the slums above the church with her grandmother. She spends as much time at the church as she can. In order to attend public school all students are required to shave their heads. Maybe the fear of lice? Mary comes to my English classes on Wednesday and to Choir practice on Thursdayand to church on Sundays
