Fish in the pond

Hi, I wanted to tell you something, Readers.
We have fish.  I'll tell you the whole story.  Well, we moved to a different house.  It has a cistern with water in it.  We have some friends who are growing fish and giving out soup.  We thought we could grow fish too and give it away in our village.  Once we were ready for the fish, a friend who has a ranch showed up and he said he would give us fish. When my dad came home with the fish they were a little bit bigger then fruit flies. We have 400 of the little guys. A haitian woman who helps us cook and do laundry said to my dad they will take SOO long to grow.  But my dad said that God will speed it up. She is all for Jesus and her name is Tikiline.  My dad thinks she is like a big kid cause she likes to scare the fish. Before all this happend we used 5 gallon buckets to get all the water out.  Then we hopped in and scrubbed.  Before my dad poured the fish in, we jumped into the cistern again, but this time it had freezing cold water in it.  We didn't care though.  We enjoyed the swim! 
Talk to you soon, Readers!:)†
