Yesterday, A friend and I went down to the beach for a much needed "girls day". She will be having her first beautiful baby boy any day now. What a beautiful blessing you are in everyone's life..K~ We can't wait to see Baby Luke.
I acually have a bunch of photos from yesterday so I hope you'all don't get bored of them.
We had such a wonderful time, we had the beach to ourselves and between the handfulls of sand being thrown on us by Jared, it was very peaceful. I have found through these shots that even if it is bright as can be and the sun was a bit harsh that you can still have fun and take some good photos,,,,work through the challange, huh...lol. Although It was quite a bit windy and I was trying to walk and take photos...we were able to relax and have fun...that is worth it all. It came up in conversation ...that as parents or just being a mother we love to show our children the things we love. Here in the top shot we have the outdoors, the beach, a plane, adventure and love. She(Kristy) is already influencing that precious baby more than she even realizes every minute of every day. She will be a wonderful mother~
HUgs and I hope you all have a great day~ Andrea
Several women at the protest in Bundu waterfront on 12 October 2009 were beaten by members of the security forces. Blessing Odum, 44 years old and mother of seven children, had been part of the protest: “...Women decided to wear black on the day as a sign of protest and we stood at the prison road to stop the government from entering the community... We were more than 50 women. We were singing songs at the governor, asking him to leave us alone, we had reclaimed this land by ourselves. As we were signing, another armoured vehicle arrived with a group of soldiers in it. Then more armoured vehicles arrived with [more] soldiers in them. The soldiers started shooting. Everyone ran for life and shooting continued and teargas was fired... I ran away with another woman... Soldiers continued shooting for more than an hour. [When] we started to [go home to] check for our families, we were sighted by the police ... The police jumped off their vehicles and chased us. I was caught. The police slapped my face... I was dragged to the police car and was told to lie down. I was flogged by the police using a cable wire, baton sticks and a horse whip. I was hit all over my body... The police kept saying that we were trouble makers... During the flogging, the police poured teargas into our eyes. A woman who owns a restaurant close by was later to take us to her shop to help us clean our eyes but our eyes were very painful. We stayed at this restaurant for an hour. ... In the meantime, the police had broken into my shop.”
When Blessing eventually got back to her house, her door had been broken and the drinks she sold at her café in Bundu waterfront had been taken. Amnesty International viewed damage to doors and locks in Blessing Odum’s cafe.
