Sunday at home

Here are a few snaps of Mannat today, as she is proudly wearing her first earings. The experience was tougher for father than for daughter it seems. We found yesterday in Osu a nice Lebanese jeweler who was so upset she made Mannat cry that she refused to take anything for the job!
Obviously Mannat was also a bit upset during the operation but she was quick to forget about it, whereas I was stressed and even more upset about making Mannat go through that. But as Promina said, it became somewhat irritating to hear people call her a boy in the street as Ghanaian baby-girls have ears pierced just after birth. But at the end of the day, isn't she looking gorgeous??


Here is Mama enjoying her Internet connection, obtained after so much fights... My wife is a real sardarni (Sikh) who really fights hard to obtain what we're suposed to have as a service we pay for... Cable-TV, Internet, we have to regularly fight and bribe to obtain little response from technicians... Ghana is a nice country but that redundant aspect of human relations is probably not the most attractive...


And little Mannat again enjoying her brand new high-chair, bought last week-end!


Here playing with Promina in the living-room:


And finally playing the star with her earings and Mama's bindi!
