Thumbprint Necklace :: Thembe

Country Source :: Swaziland *Thembe from Swaziland* Thembe is 3 years old. Her real name is Thembelihle but some people just call her Thembe. Her birthday is in June 2009. She is a rambunctious child who giggles a lot. She loves to dance, talk, and bite! Thembe is a single orphan – which means her father has passed away. She and her big sister S’bhe live with their mother and several other family members at a rural Swazi homestead. ************************************************************************ Each of us have a fingerprint - unique to us, and only us.
