Going home

The day after my arrival, 29th April 2006, Auntie Mercy, cousin Nana Abena and Uncle Paul, Auntie Ekua and Uncle James, and grandma Rose came with me to the house of Uncle Fred and Auntie Evelyn, at a place called Ashongman. We climbed over hills and it was a long way from my first 'home', the hospital. Everyone was very happy, and I got to meet my cousins Dzifa, Akofa and Esinam. How on earth am I going to mention all these names? I can't even remember my own name! I hear people calling me Little Nana. Well, it must be my size right? But I thought I was a big boy, or...

I can see Mum is tired...and Grandma Rose is such a great help to Mum. Auntie Evelyn and Uncle Fred are not at home, since they had travelled.
