Chapter 5

When they arrived home Dan calls for his father.

[Dad I'm home.]

[Your here, lets see the young kittens.]

Dans slowly and carefully takes the kittens out of the pocket.

After putting them on a towel on the kitchen table his father takes a closer look.

[Well you did the right thing son, these little ones wouldn't have made it another hour. Lets take care of them now.]

[What can I do dad?]

[Well we need to warm them up a little before we feed them and after that we need to watch them closely. I already called doc Adams and he will come by later tonight. We just need to make sure that they have everything they need to stay alive and get stronger.]

[Then I'll go get some warm towels for them]

[Good idea son.]

(Site where I found the information about what to do when finding kittens outside on the street: http://www.animalalliancenyc.org/wordpress/2013/05/what-to-do-and-not-do-if-you-find-a-newborn-kitten/ )

Just when Dan went to get some warm towels his mother came home.

[Hello, I'm home. What is going on here?]

[Hi honey, Dan found a dead mother cat and her young in the forest and now we are taking care of the two kittens that are still alive.]

[What were are they?]

[Here they are dear.]

Dan's mother comes closer to look at the young kittens.

[Ooh, how cute they are.]

[Dan's getting warm towels so that we can warm them up.]

[Well then I will make them some baby formula, did Dan bring the milk with him?]

[Yes dear, he put them there next to the fridge.]

Dan arrives with the warm towels and sees his mom.[Ooh, hi mom welcome home. How was shopping?]

[Shopping was good baby, but I'm proud of you for what you have done with the young kittens. A lot of kids would have left them there.]

[Well mom, I couldn't just leave them there. They would have died than and that would be horrible.]

[Your right son, that is just how we raised you to be.]

His parents where proud of him and Dan was very happy because of it.

Then his dad says [Son your mom will make them some baby formula and will take care of them till doc Adams come by so could you help finish with the work outside and help by making diner tonight? You know that if I make diner we will get sick from food poisoning.]

[Will do that then dad.]

Dan went outside and started with taking care of the chickens before helping his dad with the vegetable garden.

He went inside the chicken coop to see if the chicken have laid some eggs.

When he discovered that there were five eggs in the nests he took them out to see if one or more would be able to give birth to some baby chicks.

After holding them up to the light he could see that only two of them had the makings of a new baby chicken so he put them back and took the others with him inside after giving the chickens some food.

After coming inside he says,[ Mom, dad there are five eggs in the coop. But two of them should be able to be hatched into two baby chicks so I put them back. These three can be used for breakfast tomorrow.]

-Mom-

[Good job honey, hope to see some new chicks soon.]

[Well, who's son do you think he is.]

[Why, do you know something I don't know?]

-Dad-

[Um, I didn't mean it like that dear.]

[What? You didn't mean it like what?]

[Mom, I think that dad means that I did a good job because I got two of the best parents in the world.]

[Yes, yes that is what I meant.]

[Well dear, you can be thankful that our son said that you know.]

[I know dear.]

His dad winks at him and whispers a thank you.

After putting away the eggs Dan and his dad go to the field to pick out the weeds and fertilize the ground.

While working hard they discover that some of the rows of vegetables are being overrun with weeds.

So they start to begin with taking them out. Since it is not some easy work since you need to take them out by the roots, the sit on there knees.

After having taken out two rows of weeds Dan sits back for a moment to get some relieve. It is demanding work since the rows are not small and that he has to be careful not to harm the vegetables were the weed grows around of.

While resting a bit he sees that he has got a notification of a stat increase and of a skill increase.

After drinking some water to hydrate under the blistering sun he starts again with pulling the weeds.

After a couple hours of hard work Dan and his Father have pulled out all the weeds and start with fertilizing the ground so that it stays healthy.

After finishing the fertilizing of the field they water it and go inside the home to clean themselves up.
