These two little charmers are two of my wonderful grandchildren, 2-year old Patrick (right) and Ryan (left).
Patrick is former street girl Sandra's son and Ryan, his cousin, is the son of her older sister Eliana, also a former street girl. Both parents have been under my care since they themselves were rescued from the streets as kids, but who are now independent young adults living their own lives.
It's good to know that these delightful children will not be following in their parent's footsteps during the most important years of their childhood development, having the safety network of a family around them and the supporting structure that Hummingbird has to offer, together with the knowledge gained by the mothers during many years of recuperation from their own lost childhood on the streets.
But if these children are to have a good start in life we also need help in supporting part of the social structure that is available and necessary for them, such as kindergarten and pre-school. The public system is so overloaded that it is extremely difficult to accommodate all the kids in need of a pre-school place in Brazil. Therefore there are now many children who spend their days in privately run kindergarten, so that parents have the opportunity to find jobs to sustain their families. Even though these lower-class, privately run kindergarten are much cheaper than their middle-class equivalents, the costs are still unreasonably high considering that most of the money earned by the mother will go to pay for the child’s school fees, approx. USD$75.00 per month.
One of our aims at Hummingbird is to raise the number of individual “godparents” connected to our programme, who would like to help out financially by taking on such costs on a regular basis, thus becoming part of our supporting network and in this way, guaranteeing a great start in life for these children.
Feel free to contact me if you have such an interest and I will be only too happy to provide you with more information. Why not try sharing just a little of what you may have more than enough of, with those less fortunate than yourselves and who probably have much less.
When your peeptoe shoes only reveal the tips of your first two toes, why bother with a full pedicure?

I gotta love fall. It gives me an excuse to slack off my grooming. This goatherder’s hat is hiding three-day-dirty hair.
Soon enough, tights will conceal the stubble on my legs. I become terribly slothful as the weather cools.
P.S. Beefy has not been lazy. Instead, he's been diligently churning out day-by-day accounts of our piano trip:
Two Cali's sitting in a carpark. Normally I wouldn't post a California, but since there's two, it's pretty damn cool. What do you think of the shot?
Two beach camps, two personalities: one boldly geometric in sailor-stripes, the other bursting with yellow-and-blue holiday optimism. Between them? Enough coolboxes, beach bags and supplies to survive a minor heatwave… or at least a full afternoon of sun, sangria and selective shade-hopping.
