Mawuli, where to begin? He’s 6. He gets frustrated very easily. His mother is mentally disabled and they aren’t sure who the father is. His frustration, therefore, is entirely understandable, and makes us love him all the more. He is also the most unknowingly entertaining of them all. He’s so NAUGHTY. He gets into everything. As naughty as he is, he does try really hard to be good and to be helpful.

Mawuli was unable to attend school until he was accepted into the orphanage due to poverty. He began attending Delta Preparatory School, kindergarten level, in the late September 2007.
