I am fine. I still live in Banda, and I am now a mother. So, now I take care of my family full time. I am so grateful to Jesus for the birth of my daughter because it was not a given. When I was 3 months pregnant, I fell while getting water from the well. I had to be hospitalized for 3 days. It was a difficult time, and I surrendered and hoped for a miracle from Jesus. Finally, I was allowed to go home.
During my pregnancy, I was very careful and prayed to God that my baby would stay strong. The delivery was so painful, and I was hospitalized for two days. But fortunately, my baby and I both got out healthy. My baby was born on Sunday, and her name is Fergita Elshifra Ginzel which means: water baby from which I draw strength.

I met my husband for the first time in an old church in Banda Neira. He looked at me for a long time, and I hated it. He continued showing me that he loved me. He proposed to me in that same church. My heart melted. He has become my first (and my last) love. He's incredibly sweet, and even though he's 10 years older than me, I believe that God has sent him for me. From annoyance to love, that's my story. I am proud to have been part of this project. That period was very special to me. Thank you, Isabella, for capturing special beautiful photos of me. My favorite photo is the one where I was happily jumping, with the green nutmeg trees in the background. I love Isabelle.
