Following in his footsteps

Tito Mulenga has been working in our yard since we moved to Chongwe in 2001. He is more than just a gardener to us, he is family, and one of Kevin's best friends. Tito has 3 precious children that are found in our yard most of the time. Their youngest son, Mapalo, is almost 2 and is saying a few words. Mainly he likes to hollar Han nah wanting her to come out and play. The other day I looked out the window when I was doing school with Hannah and the picture below is what I saw. I just had to run get the camera. Normally, if Tito is here so is Mapalo, and he is following his daddy around.





Today I made brownies and let Mapalo have one of the beaters. He really enjoyed it as you can tell. It was so funny when Hannah tried to take it away from him so we could wash it. Hannah was pulling up with all her strength and Mapalo was pulling down with all of his strength. Finally, he was on his tip toes holding on. He did not want to let go of that beater. We all got a good laugh at that.
