Happy Birthday Esnart!

On a trip to Zambia in August 2010, we were able to catch up on Esnart's life.  With tears in our eyes, we recalled the deaths of her twins. With warmth in our hearts, we were able to see how her strength has helped her to continue living and making beautiful jewelry.  Esnart, who now also uses the name Esta Nyirenda, is still making jewelry and caring for her three children.   She smiles to show off the replacement tooth in the front of her mouth.   Although she still struggles to make ends meet, she feels that God has blessed her.   Happy Birthday Esnart.
