Burkina pics

1. This is the cutest little girl who was at a gardening project we were visiting. A Burkina organization fenced off (to keep the roaming animals out) a field and divided it into 10 gardens (for local families to grow food for their families to eat and to sell) and built a well that supplies all the water for the gardens. And then the family has to pay back the costs over time witht he profits from selling the produce. Very interesting project...but not half as interesting as the little girl with the cup as big as she is;)
2. Here she is walking up the path with her mom. All in a day's work.
3. Can you tell I love the kids here. They are so frickin' adorable!
4. Here's a lady who works at a chicken coup who was so sweet and happy. When we got the cameras out, she jumped right up and smiled. Love it.
5. A formation teaching us about micro-lending (lending small loans for small businesses - growing and selling vegies, sewing, grinding up flour, peanuts, etc for cooking)
