the cooking.They also wash the clothes, dishes and clean the house. Uwineza
always sweeps the compound with me. She seldom works alone because she
is still very young.

water and help my father to milk the cows. My father repairs the house,
works in the garden and takes care of the cows. He never cooks because he is
