Cute Little Mom


The moms with cute babies on their backs is probably my favorite sight over here. This new mother was nice enough to pose for me last Sunday. Her little girl was born last December, about 3 weeks before Miriam. The mom showed me how when the baby is first born they put them on the back with their legs down straight. She is just now starting to have her legs straddle her back. She was using a rectangular receiving blanket, but I usually see the moms use an African fabric. It looks like baby girl is going to topple out in this photo. She was relaxed and soon closed her eyes and went to sleep. Church was over and the little family could now walk home.
