Great Is Thy Faithfulness

I know I have been so silent that week, but it just happened to be so busy..We got a another new househelp on Sunday and released the other who had stayed for only 1 week. The new one is God sent I tell you, she has been a great help to me this week now that my beloved had to travel the whole week. I like her because she is proactive and loves Samara though baby gal is playing hard to get. Talking of Samara she was on midterm on Monday and Tuesday and resumed on Wednesday. By then she was already missing and demanding to wear her school shoes , she couldn't wait to get back.

As for work, we have been busy delivering& assembling beds. Yesterday we had gone to Athi river and the client was so particular that I had to stay till the end to ensure she was happy. By the time we got back, the it was headed to 2p.m. and I had to go pick baby gal. Being in 8th week of pregnancy, after standing all morning, I was quite fatigued and couldn't get myself back to the office. But back to the real topic, Over the past 2 weeks, God has been teaching me that He is faithful and able to provide what I need.

I had some new stuff coming http://www.facebook.com/sasimpressions and needed to pay for the clearing. The month had been so quiet and I wondered where I would get the cash. God sent a client our way and the amount they paid summed up to what we required to clear. Of course I was excited but also worried about salaries and some office fittings I wanted to purchase. Again God brought a client our way who paid exact amount to cater for my employees salary and the fittings. So my theme for that week was 'great is thy faithfulness, oh lord my Father'.



Am glad its Friday, one because am looking forward to attending an entrepreneurs forum on Saturday and that my beloved will be coming home on Sunday. That week has been extremely different without him and we doing the countdown.

Have a great weekend.

Congratulations on the precious new blessing! I am thankful that you have a helper who loves your little girl - I know the stress when we are transitioning to a new nanny and praying that we are entrusting our precious little ones to someone who will love them and take great care of them. It is such a gift to be able to go to work knowing your kids are in great hands.

Blessings.

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...

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...

Day 2

 After receiving news of death of a loved one, as one is grieving there are many things to be done regarding burial:where to bury, when to bury and how to bury. In Africa, relatives and the community start trickling in to comfort the family.  When a baby dies sometimes the family may have to decide whether to bury or allow hospital to do so.Sometimes the family may not know what to do or may just feel overwhelmed. Either way it's emotionally draining to make such decisions. I kept negotiating in my mind, this was not the plan, we were to take Jaden home not look for a funeral home andsite to bury him. Our family and friends supported us by accompanying us to hospital, pay bills, transfer baby to funeral home and assisted Alex in processing documents. They helped ask questions, ensure things were handled in a proper way. We never felt alone.  It is kind of the community to come visit the bereaved,it assures them of the love and support. Sometimes it can be overwhelming but...
