Life as a farmer This morning I woke up at 6:00 A.M, I woke up the whole family. My 2 daughters Guadalupe and Anna I headed out side to get some wood to make a fire and cook some eggs. My husband Jose woke up my 3 sons Juan, Jorge and Antonio to help him tend the animals at the barn. After finishing their chores they all came in and sat down while my daughters and I set up the table. Then everyone sat down and ate. While eating I hear my youngest daughter 2 year old Mayra crying. My oldest son Juan rushes to their room to get her. My daughters Guadalupe 13, and Anna 14 say they will be late for school because it is 7:00 now. I give then a kiss goodbye and ask if they are coming home for lunch? They say yes mother. I tell them to wait for their brothers. I call them Juan the oldest of all 15 years old, Jorge 14, and Antonio 11. My husband says sorry Juan but you can’t go to school today because I need your help. Winter is coming and we need more dry wood, food, and goods. Juan just said "Yes Father"he loved school but he knew there was work to be done and he had to help.My children are off to school and Juan and my Jose leave to go fined more wood. I'm left home with Mayra I feed her then put her to sleep. After that I do all the dishes. Now the worst part of the day, I must do the laundry. On a cold day like today I must go out get water fromthe river bring it back to my house wash the cloths and then hang it up outside.As I finish doing that its about noon now so I'm waiting fore the kids to come home for supper, the big meal of the day. as they walk in my husband and Juan get the fire started and my daughters help me with dinner. My daughter Anna invited her friend Julie for some tea so the go to her room. Then when we are all done Guadalupe helps me do the dishes. After that They all leave again to finish their day at school and my husband and Juan to go get more goods. I go to my kids room to find Mayra crying, I pick her up and bring her to the kitchen with me. Its getting dark out so everyone should be getting home soon. A few minutes later my husband and Juan arrive. A while longer and all my kids are back home. All of then rush to their room to do their homework. I go up to check on then and I hear Juan asking Guadalupe what he missed and what they Had for homework. I tell Jose about what I heard and ask him if he could let him go to school the next day. He is grateful Juan helps him sais he will let him catchup with school for a while. Then its time for bed and I go into their room to turn th lights off.
