Motherhood



Sow's bonding so well with the baby. Rayluk's taken to breast feeding and is ambidextrous when it comes to nipples. He's so relaxed in her care, when he's not crying or screaming. He's even fallen asleep mid suckle.

Sow's mom is also really good with the baby. She's really helped out a lot. It's been fantastic having her here. I guess she's really passed on some good mothering instincts.

When Sow was young, she asked her mom where she'd come from. Her mom said she wasn't really her daughter. That she'd gone to the train station one day and seen a little girl sitting there all alone and crying, so she kept her. And her older brother they'd found when they were taking out the garbage one morning. Her younger brother, he was real. But they told him they'd found him in the wild anyhow.

Do you think Moses mom made up that whole baby in a basket thing?

Maybe I'll tell baby Rayluk we found him in the back of a three-wheeled taxi... Tuk-Tuk!
