| Duane and Zach absolutely love it when I bring crayons and a coloring book for them! |
 |
| Adu fetching water |
 |
| The dog has really gotten big since I last saw it! |
 |
| Agnes making a dress for her friend, Eliza |
 |
| This is an 'iron box'. Hot coals from the cooking fire are used to make it hot. |
 |
| The sun is just above the horizon on Boxing Day, December 26th. A great start to a new day. |
 |
| Arrowroot is a common staple food in Kenya, typically eaten for breakfast. |
 |
| Sukuma wiki ('push the week') is how Kenyans refer to kale, cooked as greens. It's a relatively cheap food and helps to stretch the weekly food budget. |
 |
| Agnes has planted several sugarcane plants like this young one. |
 |
| She also has several healthy pumpkin plants. We had boiled pumpkin one morning for breakfast. |
 |
| Seed beds for more kale plants. The mosquito netting keeps the chickens away from the seedlings. |
 |
| Adu and Tony started a rabbit project. Eight babies were born while I was there. |
 |
| Cool shot of the sky at dusk, looking past the outhouse sitting on top of an ant hill |
 |
| Tony just added water to a pot of boiling milk, to make chai (tea) |
 |
| Agnes had part of the house 'plastered' and a new veranda added to the front. Both give it a more finished look. |
 |
| Duane and Zach seem to never run out of creative ways to play! |
 |
| They're sliding down an ant hill in a piece of an old tire. Simple pleasures! |
