We’ve been eating a lot healthier since arriving in Kenya; by default, no processed foods and very few sweets as well. One of the few “treats” that the children have enjoyed is chewing on a fresh stalk of sugar cane. Oddly enough, we’ve learned that some of the locals think that chewing sugar cane cleans their teeth.
One day when Enoch was cutting a new tooth and was VERY fussy, the children were having sugarcane for snack and, in desperation, I told them to let Enoch chew on some as well. Result? One very happy baby! (Note in this photo how very dirty a newly crawling baby gets on dusty, and often wet, concrete floors!)
What a cutie!!
