baby girl Jesus, sleeping

Menahil, Montpelier, 2005 Daniel Wetmore

I call her “baby girl Jesus” because she arrived at our house with her parents, Sajjad and Sumera, on a cold wintry day when they had been turned aside at the Vermont/Quebec border. They were a refugee family, fleeing persecution in Pakistan and the good ole USA. A homeless holy family. Good friends. Good people. They have found a home in Canada.
