One Two

AnnMarie is recovering from kwash. Until last week, her mother stayed with her. Then, last week, her mother delivered a baby girl. So she was gone for a few days. AnnMarie was very sad, so I started dancing with her - as I have done with other children. I would say, "one-two, one-two, etc". Well, when AnnMarie spent a night at home with her family she must have told about our dancing because the next day, when her father brought her back, he asked me, "Are you OneTwo?" She thought that was my name!
Later, I heard one of the mothers saying to another, "I haven't seen OneTwo today!" That is when I realized that a number of the parents didn't know my name. So, today we had a lesson in my name! :o)
The doll AnnMarie is holding was given her by one of the visitors from 2 weeks ago. The children LOVE it when there are people here to play with them or, for those too sick to play, to just sit and hold them. We all need a little loving, don't we?
That's all for now. Take care. God bless. Mary Ann (alias OneTwo)
