A lovely Weekend

Today  we are at 38 weeks and we doing the countdown to holding baby J in our arms. Quite exciting I must say. Over the weekend I was telling my beloved that it is amazing how the floor seems so far. If something drops or you need to reach out for something, it really takes lots of effort but if you have helpful hands like baby gal's and her daddy life is bearable. Samara will always pick the shoe for mummy and I only need to slip my leg into the shoes.

Anyways, we were just chilling out at home on Saturday , when my sister Emma called and said she would love to pick Samara for the weekend.At Emma's home she is able to play with her three cousins. We quickly packed her bag and she couldn't even sit inside the house, she was seated at the door. Thankfully tata Emma was close by and the wait wasn't too long.

That left us home alone and I tell you we just chilled, no pressure to cook and it was relaxing. We had an impromptu date, went to eat junk food(not healthy) and later went for an evening play. We realized it had been a very long while since we had done that and were forever grateful to Emma and Chris. They are just the best. Sunday morning, made breakfast for two, prepared and went to church. Baby gal wasn't too keen to see us as her time with her cousins is always treasured. Infact we were saying, one would think we mistreat her at home, they way she cries when she has to say good bye to her cousins every Sunday..is depressing. Now you understand why we looking forward to baby J so that she can have company at home.

So a new week it is and we taking it a day at a time and loving it....

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...

Househelps

This morning as we drove to work, we tuned into a radio station that had an interesting discussion...yeah you guessed it, it was on househelps.The background was that there is a lady who has helped develop a curriculum for domestic workers in Kenya and the emphasis is on respecting oneself, good grooming, respecting the job one is doing etc. She was encouraging all employers to enrol their domestic workers for the curriculum but many were hesitant stating that they would invest much in the househelps then after a few weeks/days the girls would leave..but she said if all homes trained the domestic workers then whenever they left, then you would receive one who is trained as everyone has played their role. The morning show had 2 male presenters, and two ladies and what caused a stir was that the men asked one lady.." whether she would employ a househelp who was prettier than her? "Would you employ one who's esteem is high and dresses well if you were married" . The l...
