Our first match at Sunlit Gardens is with Big Rajeshree and Little Sibongila. This is what our Big has to say:
Hi! My name is Rajeshree and I'm currently a Big at BBBS, Pietermaritzburg. I have been matched with my Little who's name is Sibongila. She is sweet sixteen years old and is truly a live wire. Just her big smile and hug does it for me. We were matched just over a month ago and our relationship has already grown. Sibongila is just amazing. When we were first introduced she was shy and not of many words. But, now she has blossomed into a young lady that just cannot stop talking.
We spend time with each other during the week and, when she comes home, she becomes a part of the family. Sibongila has bonded with my two children and they enjoy having her over. We do a lot of family stuff together and this has had an impact on her. Her progress has been extremely noticeable and many around her have noticed this.
I have developed an incredible bond with her and I am sure that she will remain a part of my life for a long time. Her confidence has grown and all I can say now is that I am happy with my little blessing - I now have three children.
