Lesego
I am so lucky that my awesome friend Marlise only lives two blocks away from me, and we can pop into to see each other for tea and see each other with such ease. It makes it really easy to share things like books, and get things like pieces of cake and vegetables to each other with no fuss.
We are also now starting to share more things namely the children in our street. The children who live around us in my street are here often - for a safe green garden to play in, food, help with homework or to come and play with pester my pets.
Marlise has a similar thing happening in her street and recently the children of her street and my street have figured out we are friends and are combining their efforts, which is sometimes a real handful.
Waiting for Marlise to come home last week, her bunch saw that I was home and wanted to play in my garden until Marlise came home.
So this is Lesego from Putney Road, in a lovely red shwe shwe summer top that her mom made for her. It has a white bias binding edge that ties the shirt up behind her neck.
The Fulham road children (in my street) are used to my fascination with shwe shwe even though they think its a bit traditional but Lesego was very tickled that her shirt was worth photographing.
