Day 95:
Today mom and I decided we were going to pick up all the good mangos that had fallen off of the ground. We walked around under.. who knows how many trees and got BAGS AND BAGS full of mangos! We (me carrying because of mom's neck)would bring them to the house, and back for another, house and back.. ETCETCETC...! We had around 10 big bags full. But we had not done all the trees and this was only the beginning! After we decided we would stop for the day, we brought all of the mangos inside and washed them all. We then had a few bags or oranges as well and rbought them over to the kids. (WERE THEY EVER HAPPY :) ) We went back and peeled,cut, and made some mango jam. By the end of the day our house was smelling to the extreme of mangos! Yum :)! My hands were as well..! By the time we finished for the day.. it was night time and ready for bed!
Day 94:
Today I decided that I would conquer the Mango thieves. ahahahhahhaha I guess.... ;) I woke up in the morning and since the villagers (some) have been trying to sneak through our fence (even after we cover the holes with thorns) and steal mangos off the trees and sell them. I got my beating stick, slingshot, and Panga (machete) out along with my book "Macbeath" (For school) , I took a chair, and headed out with my dad to sit by the hole and scare off people :D Of course I would never actually harm anyone unless they attacked me, but just for fun I had my weapons ;) . Dad and I practiced our slingshots at trees and then he and my mom had to go to Voi, so I sat in the orchard reading.Ben had come for a bit to hang out, and after awhile he left. I had gone back to the house at noon, ate and went back. He had came back , we chatted for awhile, and then I went back to the house and he left. I checked on the orchard now and then and .. no one had snuck in :D They must have seen me guarding .. By supper mom and dad were back, and we ate . The rest of the evening we were back and forth between the orphanage and our house doing some things.
