Ashley Metidi

Despite the fact that most people in Ugandan cannot pronounce my name, there is now at least one Ugandan that shares my first name. Little Ajolo wasn't given a second name when she was born and so last week her parents decided that Ashley would fit her well. She's two years old, but already responds to her new name. The people in the village usually say "Ashley Metidi," meaning "Little Ashley" so we don't get confused. Fun!

Here she is with one of her big sisters, Aloyo, and her grandmother, Evelyn.
