Mom's Side of the Family

Rasmata, Salmata (Rakieta's mom) Rakieta, Kassoum and our faithful driver
Me, looking pretty sun burned, and Rakieta's mom

After our lunch, pictures and video at Rakieta's dad's, we went to Rakieta's mom's home. Salmata, who is the senior wife and whose children are now grown, and Lassane are not always on the same page so they tend to take breaks from one another to keep peace. At the time of this picture she is staying with a cousin.
