Until October, De-Shawto had a job at the Wal-Mart deli counter; Phenom drove a pizza-delivery van until her pregnancy made her too sick to continue. Now a few days a week, De-Shawto gets up before dawn at their temporary home at the Barbara Bonner Family Shelter and heads off to work prepping cars to be sold at a local auto-auction facility.
