So I was teaching sentence writing to class 6. They are helping me by writing a sentence for each letter on my alphabet wall. When we got to D they wrote a sentence that sort of fit.
David made a delicious dog.
I encouraged them to come up with a different noun, a food that starts with d. 'Istolo raised his hand and chuckled. "'Alisi this is Tonga, that is food." So I left the sentence as is.
On that note after the funeral next door I noticed that Littles (neighbors dog that I feed and pet and have befriended enough to call my dog although the true owners are my neighbors) is not around anymore. Then I heard that during the funeral some of the boys umued (cooked in an underground oven) a dog. So I asked a friend if he ate my dog and he assured me it was a different dog. Someone had stolen my dog and taken her home. He offered to go
get my dog and bring her back, but I thought if she has a home, good let her stay there. Really I just don't want him to bring a different dog and confirm my fears that they ate Littles. So life goes on for me, and as for Littles I hope she is happy in her new home, wherever that may be.
