Sophia
Sophia, already nicknamed Sophie is Maasai. Her mother tragically passed away from a hemorrhage shortly after giving birth. At 40 years old, this was her seventh baby. Sophie’s uncle and both of her grandmothers brought her to Neema Village. She is a healthy 5½ pounds and absolutely beautiful.
We grieve with both of these families. We mourn the heartbreak that brought these babies to our doors, while thanking God that they are safe, loved, and surrounded by people who will care for them. When she is a bit bigger she will be able to return home to her grandmothers.
