Joy -- pure joy.

This is my favorite photo so far.  We were greeted in Oyoko by so many children who were on a school break.  They had never seen a white person.  Can you believe that?  It's true.  They knew we were with Dr. Addai who runs the only health clinic they have ever known.  He established the clinic in 2007.

Look at the little girl in the center with her hands about to clap.  Joy, pure joy, and that speaks for Lisa and me when we saw this sincere outpuoring of gratitude for our visit. What, on earth, could be more rewarding than this gesture displayed by these children?
