This is a mother of 9 children, born over a span of about 25 years I think. Some 8-9 of her own and grandchildren live with her.  And they have it tough.  We gave her rice and lentils and brought a big bag of clothes for the kids
The stones of the house feels a bit wobbly and there is a big hole on one side of the wall.
This is where they cook
They all loved their new shoes and clothes. Thank you friends who sent them over with me
Trying on some of the new clothes in the bag

First every child was weighed
Those 2 would come out
It wasn't just the kids who had their health checked, this granddad came along too and he was found to be super healthy
