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...

My Journey with Caleb's Family

A friend requested me to share my story on the journey we walked with Caleb's family. So below is a very long blog on that over 1 month. Am not sure what is in store for us ahead but this far it has been God. After our experience with Atrial Septal Defect(ASD) through our daughter Samara, I felt within me a call to look for people to partner with regarding kids with heart issues. So In January this year, I checked the net and bumped into a local NGO. The organization basically deals with kids with heart defects from poor families. I thought it was a noble call and contacted the organization. They were fast to respond and I visited them alone and over the weekend on a Saturday with my family. On the Saturday we went, we met Caleb and his parents. This was end of January and they were discussing with the founder of the organization about how to raise airfare for them to travel to India, first week of February. I held Caleb briefly in my arms and his mum kept saying one day her...

Atrial Septal Defect

Atrial septal defect (ASD), is a heart condition that can affect kids. Normal Heart Function To understand an ASD, it helps to know how the heart works. The heart has four chambers. The lower chambers of the heart are called the ventricles: a left ventricle and a right ventricle. The upper chambers are the atria and there are two— a left atrium and a right atrium. You may already know that your heart is a muscle that pumps blood throughout your body. In a person without a heart defect, blue blood that's low in oxygen flows first to the right atrium, then to the right ventricle, and is then pumped to the lungs to receive oxygen. The red oxygen-rich blood then returns to the left atrium, flows from there into the left ventricle, and heads out to the body through the aorta, a large blood vessel that carries blood from the heart to the smaller blood vessels in the body. Between the right and left atria is a wall called the septum that...
