twice" thing meant once by god and once by his family. YMMV on that

for what it's worth, i don't think the little boy in #3 was retarded.
the kids in #s 1 and 2 were all retarded and holding signs to the
effect that they were glad to be alive, etc. the little boy in the
first photo gave me a hug after i took his picture, which is probably
why i ended up posting that one, even though i don't think it's such a
great shot.
