Sylvain, a girl i dunno, Volonté, Léopold, and Rafatou. when i put the camera up to my face, Sylvain, normally a very happy-smiley kid, locked up into this position, i like to call "the Beninese" photo face. the others who are smiling, are not the norm. and Léopold, the little guy is in 6éme...he's on the small side, but in general they are all so little and cute!



goats/sheep are so fun to chase! she couldn't help herself =)

me, Michel, Kantos, and Maman!

this is a lizard that Rosie somehow managed to trap in my house and kill. eewww, to think that i could have stepped on it!

this is a preying mantis that decided to die in my kitchen sink. the pen is to show how big they are.
