This is me milking one of the cows, i was learning at the same time, so it was really funny.  

On the right is our first calf, his name is Isreal. He is our first calf. I thought they would be bigger, but i was wrong. Like a little dog. On the left is Doc after Dr.Peters (one of my hero's in life).

Sessy, Manji and Me all went out to lunch after church. It was a fun time.  

Recently I had a work day at my house, this means that anyone of the kids who wanted to work for money could come. Needless to say all of them came and worked hard. They where aloud to spend their money on whatever they wanted, alot of them are saving up for bigger things. It is neat to see. 

Joseph thinking he is so cool with those glasses. LOL 

Emmanuel Mdogo, a GQ type guy, he loves being the model for the camera.  

John, one of our best, looking like a indian. John is going to be a great man of God when he grows up.  

The kids enjoying their ballons 

Manji and Micheal looking great 

Luka, my nightwatchman, was married recently and all the children where soo excited to go and eat and celebrate with them. 

The children are all excited and dance around the car of the bride and groom. 

I have a announcement: Little Mary and her brother, Joseph were relocated to live with family members in Dar es Salaam. We had no idea that there was living family that were searching for these children. In our attempts to locate any living family we connected with people who connected with people and one day thier uncle showed up with tears in his eyes. So they are now happily living with family in the main city Dar about 7 hours from us. I will go to visit them both in January. We called them and they are soooooooo happy. 

This is what a typical area of town that you would find street kids begging for money. Now adays there arent many street children at all. In Moshi there are now several centers that help to reach these kids, we need to continue to pray for centers to open in other major city where kids still live on the streets. 

This is a picture of the market that we buy the children's food from. 

Usually i try to take one child for day to spend time one on one. This is really nessercery for the kids that we have,they need that special one on one time. This is Imkea from Holland, she is here for one month to be with the kids and the work we are doing here. We are going to miss here and Ingaborg alot. 

Kelvin is slight disappointed that I told him to take his book inside, because i didnt want him to ruin it as he played soccer with it under his arm. 

Alot of the children can't read so we read to them and encourage them to get into books. They are all wanting very badly to learn to read. 

The boys sit on the couch (not yet with cushions) and read their new books. We bought all the boys a new bible with pictures in it. They are soooo happy. 

We let the kids draw freely now a days since we recieved the stacks and stacks of paper. A local ministry also gave the children pens and pencils so we are good to go. Soon i will be teaching the kids art in the weeknights, we recieved tons of art supplies as well. 

With a house full of boys, this is a normal view. Boys wrestling, it is in thier blood.
