This is one of Toby's favorites in Therapy! Nancy makes him get his hands and arms all messy with shaving cream. This week Toby decided it would be funny to rub his white hands through his hair......funny for him, not funny for momma!

Why Ethiopia?

A Unicef report states that in Ethiopia there are at this moment 4.5 million orphans on a population of some 90 million. The 4.5 million means that 5 percent of the total population is an orphan. Orphans are in Ethiopia defined as children under 18 whose both parents died. They died of AIDS, untreated illnesses, hunger, draught and war. There are about 2.5 million children with disabilities. Ethiopia counts one of the largest populations of orphans in the world: 13 per cent of children throughout the country are missing one or both parents. This represents an estimated 4.6 million children – 800,000 of whom were orphaned by HIV/AIDS.
