I'm doing ok it's mommy who was sick. I have a stomach ache sometimes
and a rash on my face. My mosquito bites are all going away, I just
have 5 now. Mommy has a gross blister bug bite.
I've met lots of new people and made some new friends. My best friends
are Loic, Zoukou and Razak. We play baseball, soccer, tennis with a
ball and our slippers (hahaha), and Lego. We build big houses and
parking garages for cars on the front porch using rocks. The yard is
full of rocks so there are lots to build with. I got invited to a
birthday party but I wasn't feeling well. My stomach hurt a lot so I
went home.
I spent last weekend at the farm with Gramma Carol and Grampa Clark
(and mommy). We helped Grampa Clark feed the animals, and helped
Gramma Carol clean up. We didn't have time to go fishing yet. Bryanna
would love to see the farm. There is a baby monkey, a red monkey who
makes faces when it is scared and a baboon, and a chimpanzee named
Juliette. There are jackals and hyenas, and 2 baby wild cats and 2
baby caracals (cats). There are porcupines and I am going to bring
some quills back. Bryanna, don't be scared, they don't shoot quills at
you. There are snakes and rats, bats and turtles. My favourite animal
is the baby monkey. You can hold him, he doesn't want to run away.
He's getting fat. All he wants to do is play.
Too bad Gracie can't come.
I just started school. I didn't like it because the teacher was mean.
He would hit the other kids on the head if they were bad and if you
made a mistake you had to go on your knees. We are changing schools. I
start at my new school tomorrow. I will take the bus.
I like my house because I like my bedroom and there is lots of room to
play outside. We can fit a lot of people in the yard, more than 12.
There are fun things I get to do that I don't get to do in Canada. I
get to ride on a motorcycle, and drive a car when we are at the farm.
I get to pet monkeys at the farm and I can go almost anywhere I want.
Love Ben
