New pictures at last!

Fake Mommy wants to apologize for not posting pictures in so long. Her camera broke a while ago, and she hasn't been able to afford a new one. But a friend came over the other day and took some nice pictures.

Why is Mommy in Afghanistan?

Mommy is working for the Ministry of Education’s Teacher Education Directorate as a Senior Technical Adviser. “TED” is responsible for all teacher training in Afghanistan, a big job what with 150,000 teachers to train! Almost 80% are unqualified, which means Mommy’s got a big job ahead of her. She works with a program called “DT3,” District Teacher Training Teams, that go out and conduct teacher trainings around the country. Donors from around the world fund the various programs at TED, from special needs teacher training to girl’s education initiatives. Education is the key to creating a peaceful, stable, progressive Afghanistan. Indeed, education is the key to creating a peaceful world.

Mommy also recently rescued an Afghan street dog, a part lab she named “Winston”, after her hero Winston Churchill. Winston is currently residing at Tigger House until we can all find him a new home abroad. Won’t you help? It costs about $3,000 to relocate a dog from Afghanistan. He’s a sweet pup, found by Mama’s housemate just in the nick of time. Some kids were going to stone him to death right outside Mama’s gate. He’s smart, can smell breakfast a mile away, easily trained, loving, and playful. Winston will make a great family pet, or even working dog.
