Picture Worth a Thousand Words

Smeared in dust and debris and wide-eyed with terror, Redjeson Hausteen Claude is plucked free from the rubble of his devastated home.

Seconds later, the two-year-old's grimy face lights up in a smile when he catches sight of his ecstatic mother Daphnee Plaisin.

I wish I knew of a way to bring this mother and child to my home right now. But for now, this picture just made my day, seeing that smile. Imagine what is in that two-year-old's mind - two days buried alone, only to have strange people dig you out, and then to see . . . Mama.
