What an inspirational picture of so many dedicated teachers! Ngokoana, what are those beautiful shoes you have? Hello, Nakedi, I have been thinking of you much! I want to cry when I see your faces and think back on what seems like only yesterday when we were together in San Antonio! I send you all my love and hugs!
