Photo: Jenga Mwendo walks with her daughter Azana Olusola, 3, up to the levee wall at the industrial canal where it meets the river in the Lower 9th Ward in New Orleans on Aug. 7, 2007. The two had attended several night out on crime events, one of which was next to the levee and is where Azana received her balloons. Jenga, 28, moved away from New Orleans after graduating from high school to attend NYU and worked in New York since then.  Just before Katrina she bought a house in the Lower 9th Ward but had thought she would rent it out and maybe down the road possibly move down.  After the storm she decided to quit her job and dedicate herself to living in New Orleans. She said she wants Azana to experience the music and culture of the place she grew up. Photo by KATHLEEN FLYNN
