Jefter is a bright active 7 year old. I would probably describe him as one of the “leaders” on our school. The other children naturally follow him. He is a gifted artist and recently had to scrub the patio of his artwork! He has since kept his drawings on paper and reminds the other children to do the same.
Jefter is one of two children. His sister Jennifer is just about two years old. We are unsure of her exact age. Their mother died 7 months ago and she was an only child. Jefter and Jennifer now live with their grandmother Christina. Christina is a widow and is raising the kids on her own. She has no idea who the father of the children are. When I asked her about their father, her tearful response was, “As you see me, I am the only Father or mother for these children. We three are alone in this world.”
In order to support the children, Christina farms cassava, peanuts, corn and beans.
