Mapengo!


In Kiswahili, mapengo literally means gaps as in toothless gaps!

Luke lost another tooth today.

  2. Actually the fellow was so brave and warrior like. He clenched his fists into little balls as tight as he could and said.."Dad, this tooth has to get out of my mouth today". Opened wide and closed his eyes. I grabbed it between my thumb and index finger and pulled downward and pop! Bloody mouth, smiles and not a single tear!
