The Bananas, the Girl and the Goose

As you can see in this picture Sister Stewart and I were teaching a lovely woman in front of their little home. Their grandmother (lola) sold bananas and a few veggies from a shelf on their porch. The little girl kept standing on her tippie toes and pulling down  bananas to eat. She ate four and then on the fifth one she laid it in a basket on the ground and ran off to play. I watched as a big goose waddled over and ate her banana. In a few minutes the little girl returned and wondered where her banana went. When I told her that the goose had eaten it she huffed off. Soon she returned and got another banana down, peeled it, sat it in the basket and ran off to play. Again the goose come over and ate it. Again the girl returned as was mad. This time she pulled a banana down, sat it in the basket without peeling it. A few minutes after she ran off to play the goose came back. He picked up the banana, peeled it with his beak and ate the banana! When the little girl came back she was soooooooo mad at that goose. She went after it yelling and shaking her fist. It was the funniest thing to watch!

This is the woman we were teaching with her baby boy and the funny little girl. The other kids were neighbors. I wish I had taken a picture of the goose. But I didn't want to cause a distraction in the middle of the lesson that Sister Stewart was teaching to this family.
