Mary
Mary was referred to Rafiki by an orphanage about four hours away from Rafiki Village Kenya. She has been at the babies’ home since she was two months old. She came to Rafiki in October 2004. As the eldest in her new cottage, Mary carries herself well, trying her best to be a good example to her young sisters. She is cheerful, obedient and respectful. She has developed a wonderful sense of humor, though she is still shy around new adults. Mary likes her studies and also participates in extra-curricular activities. She is cooperative, always anxious to please, and seems eager to improve. Her listening skills have greatly improved, and she always obeys her teachers. She is self-confident, which helps her to do her best in her academics and extra-curricular activities.
