I am here

The last few days have been quite busy but am not complaining. We are out to make SAS Impressions visible and hence I have been going to shopping malls and placing our adverts on the noticeboards. Thankfully the response has been good and we are looking forward to Saturday when we can interact with many parents during the Kindergaten and Primary School Expo and Family Fun day this coming Saturday at Splash that we are participating in.

I thought this expo was timely because we are shopping around for a school for baby girl. Yeah she turns 2 in January and at 2&half she will need to join school. Talking of Samara she has been great, she has many words like see you, love you, good night. She got a flu that was going around in the house and I tell you having her nose blocked hasn't been fun. My beloved had traveled and I missed him much because he has the ability to suck out the mucus from her nose.I tell you Alex is just made for me. For me I tried, black pepper to make her sneeze, I ended up sneezing more than her, I put hot water and rob in a container and made her inhale the steam, it helped abit and we tried steaming her. Of course saline drops and Zyrtec also had been recommended but weren't working for her. All this were working just a little bit and so this morning when she started breathing through her mouth, I called the doctor, paid him a visit and he gave her some medication which seems to work much better. Again I thank God that we are able to buy medicine, I never take it for granted coz I know somebody somewhere would wish to take their child but they can't.

I will post a few pictures of Samara and her helping hand very soon. Otherwise am happy and humbled by God's love and provision.Am forever grateful to Him for just loving us and having the best in store for us.

Unconditional love

As I went home last yesterday, I heard the song 'In harms way'  by BeBe Winans, Rhett Lawrence, Margaret Bell-Byars. When listening to music, I want to know the lyrics,what the song is communicating and how it applies in my life. This song reminds me of God's unconditional love, even when I do not deserve it, even when I have given up , even when he knows all He knows about me, he doesn't let go of me. That is just amazing. Undying love you've given to me Seen in me things I would never have seen I don't understand why you care so much, it's all a mystery Time and time again I ask myself What have I done to deserve such wealth The price you paid, I could never repay your generosity Chorus: In wanting to save me In order to save the day Because of love you placed yourself In harm's way It's truly beyond me Left without a word to say What kind of love would place itself In harm's way? What kind of love would place itself In harm...

Weight-Part 2

Once the baby is breastfeeding and starts to wean, the eyes shift from the mother to the child. Common comments ‘ what are you feeding your baby on? They are growing so well. During baby clinics, pressure mounts because your child's weight gain doesn't seem to match that of another or a friend's child. Next time you take the baby for vaccination open your ears and eyes. It’s like people are sizing each other up, or trying to boost their image especially if their baby “seems” to be ahead of others. I know this is a sensitive topic but all am saying is, yes the mother/parents have worked pretty hard to ensure that their baby is growing well and that is ok and we appreciate the good job done, but hey do we stop to think about that other woman/family who is feeling like a failure because as per the society as long as your baby is not growing as well as we expect, the mother( most times) isn't doing a good job? Do we ask ourselves why isn't that child not growing as...

Looking back at where I am today and where the 8-4-4 system had placed me, I thank God that He has a purpose and plan for all of us. At times I wonder whether I will be able to tell my kids that I was never in the top 10 position in class. Most of our parents have told us how they were position 1 in their class and I always wonder who was last? Think about it. I envy today’s young generation. Having being raised in Kericho and Nakuru in my younger days, I didn’t know English too well and at 6 years I was speaking broken English. My first birthday was so memorable and exciting in that I could not say birthday and would welcome my friends and visitors by saying ‘welcome to my passday’. Oh well ,thank God that we catch up quick and I went to Milimani Primary and later Nairobi Primary and my report forms would read “ Sylvia is very playful and can do better if she settled down" or "slight imporvement but can do better". Class 8 came and I scored 432/700, and that was ok...
