Buko, Banana and Boxing!

Greetings! Dear Steemit friends!

I hope you are well and happy.
How's life? Mine is good, my problems are tolerable and I am doing fine.

Do you like buko?

One lovely Sunday, I and my husband together with my son went to my mother's farm. I and my husband decided to tend to our cassava but we got lazy when we got there and the supposed to be a farm day became a chillax day.


We are very eager to work in the farm but from our previous conversation with my mother, she's doubting whether to let us plant again in the next cropping because my siblings got furious when they found out about it.

It was supposed to be a secret as a surprise but then we blurted out that we will be using the income from the cassava to help her. And last month, news came to me that my late father has left a huge debt in the bank using my sister's name when he lend the money. The unpaid loan tripled! And we were obliged to pay it and honestly, 1,000 pesos per month is such a huge loss in our budget.

But anyway, enough with the problems; I'll start with how my day went on the farm.

We left our house at past 8 in the morning; my daughters are going with my mother to church so I had to tend to their needs first before doing my things.

When we arrived at the farm, I am already hungry because I did not eat much on breakfast. My husband got thirsty too, the sun is up high and is very hot. The thing about the farm is that we don't have a potable water source there so we had to bring water. About other things that should be used with water, we have a drum to catch rainwater outside.

My mother had some stocked water in her paying but we wanted something sweet, and cold too! I was too busy on keeping Czak safe while my husband was opening the buko with a machete.

My husband only took the coconut water so I took the meat and put them up in a bowl. My son doesn't want it too, he said its hard, but its teh best age of coco nut flesh to eat, do you think so too?

Also, Inside my mother's payag, my son found these bananas. she had several banana trees in the lower part of her farm and they were blessed with lots of fruits.

My son got so happy when he found them and told us he is a monkey and danced like one. My son is very kulit and he does silly things whenever he has chance. Sometimes it makes me mad but most of the time, It makes me laugh

We stayed a little more, my sin played and played while my husband is busy with his phone too. We are actually expecting someone but they didn't come that day. We then decide to go home at 2 in the afternoon.

We went home and our daughters were so happy when they saw us. I took off the clothes that I hanged to dry early in the morning, and I asked the kids to change their clothes because we will be going with their Ton to the amateur boxers he is coaching.

It took us a few minutes to travel to the house where they usually meet, They had installed punching bags and a punching ball at the back of their house. They got a wide space too! The company that owned the farm had just harvested their corn and the bare land displayed such an amazing view

My son wanted to paly inte punching ball but because he is short, he only punches the lower part of it.

There is a new boxer that enrolled; he was accompanied by his parents. he was a bit shy at first and he had his younger brother too.

These are my daughters having so much fun. When I took this picture, my daughter just jumped off from a moving hammock! She's so gutsy!

On the side of their house, Nico's mother had this pretty flower. I am not sure but I guess this is the one they called billionaire flower. Am I right?

When I was younger, we used to play with this flower's seeds and we are making them moles. We simply press them in our faces and tadaa! instant mole! Oh, those lovely days we had!

The boxing session went well, and they gave us juice and biscuits for a snack. The juice is too cold and I forgot that I have a cough. Soon enough, I was coughing so hard already.

Despite that, we all had a great day and waseven happier that I was able to spend it with my kids nad they had fun too.

We rarely go out since I and my husband had too much to do.

This will be all for today, I hope you liked my post. Thank you so much for your time and attention.Keep safe
