Charlie and Michele Silvey are 21 and 22. They have two children-- Derek, 18 months, and Ka'mel, 3, who has severe epilepsy. Michele is pregnant with another boy and due any day. They have been homeless for over three months now since the trailer they were living in was not maintained by their landlord and the roof of the kids' room caved in. I met them on the 4th of July while enterprising for the Missourian and have been spending a lot of time with them ever since. Michele sent the kids to her parents in St. Louis to get them off the streets until they find a new home. These are images from Thursday night downtown which may be the edit for my one day story.

Wow. The one with her on the bench is so powerful. Are you going to do this in color or black and white?
