Laundry and Babies

We are learning how to do things the African way. Here is a picture of me (Lisa), Blessings and Alina hanging up laundry. We don’t have bouncy seats or any other of the gadgets that we use in the US to keep our babies out of the way instead we just put them on our back and wrap a chitenje around them. It works amazingly well. The baby likes being close to its mother and the mother can get something done. Blessings (the baby on my back), has gone from being terrified of me to wanting to be with me all the time. He is way too big to carry in my arms all the time so the chitenje is a great solution.
