just want to shout out to christine, one of lomela’s adopted moms. she has a big birthday on tuesday, and i wanted to thank her for her support.
in fact, christine wrote the very first comment ever on the wildlife direct blog
‘Oh my gosh, thank you so much for the news about Lomela… I know a number of us have been waiting with baited breath!! Seriously, this just made my day…I have her picture (the one of her eating the mango) as our computer wall paper at home…it just cracks me up everytime I see her…my husband loves her now too! And welcome to Kata..she already seems well on her way to good heath and bonobo happiness…and kudos to all who are helping nurse all these precious babies back to health and are working to educate the villagers!’
when kata was dying, it was christine and some of the other faithful followers who made me feel less alone, and there were people out there who cared. so thank you christine. lolo sends you a big birthday kiss

What a special and wonderful surprise Vanessa! Thank you so much (and to my hubby too whom I believe may have told you it was my birthday!) Supporting Lola and Lomela is easy…it is eveyone there that has the hard job of bringing these poor babies back from the brink of extinction. So a million times thank you and the biggest hug to my girl and her BFF Lukuru.

Aw, this is so sweet! Christine and I will be drinking a little wine on Saturday, Vanessa, so we’ll be sure to toast you and all the mamas and bonobos at Lola.

Happy Birthday Christine. Wow, you and Sheryl have close Birthdays! I might have to double up my WLD donation on Saturday in honor of your birthday too…..now that I’m getting a paycheck, I can splurge for once. : ) I’ll be thinking of you girls sipping wine and celebrating on Saturday. Wish I could come. Happy Birthday! Lisa

Happy belated birthday Christine. You don’t know me, but I’m Lomela’s mom too. I just love that sweet girl as I know all her mamas do. Of course, I love all the kids.
