Kelvin was one of my favorites (even if we're not supposed to have favorites!!). He was always talking to me (teaching me nyanja and imitating my english with lots of giggles!) and playing with my hair. He lives with his Dad, Mom, 3 brothers and 1 sister. They attend Catholic church together. His dad is a doctor. Kelvin wants to be a policeman when he grows up. He said his favorite thing is soccer (football!) and his least favorite thing is "playing". When I asked him why, the sweet boy said he doesn't like getting dirty, and when he has to play, he can't help getting dirty. When it was time to play soccer at camp, even though it's his favorite, he didn't play because there wasn't a grass field and he didn't want to get dirty! Instead, he sat with me and practiced his English
