Clean up

Yesterday, we moved most of the furniture that we had stored in SAS to a different storage so as to have enough space to display our elegant kids furniture from 10a.m. to 4p.m.. So today, I had syked myself to  clean up SAS and the cleaning has been continuous the whole day. In the midst of cleaning clients would walk in and I would have to recall where I had stored certain items that they wanted.

There is a place that required painting for a while , and I had been pushing the caretaker  to get it painted. So today finally after my clean up in the morning and when I thought I would relax, the painter walked in, scrapped off old paint from the roof , spilled it all over the floor and restarted to paint. To make matters worse there is a section which had cartons and instead of him moving the cartons, he just touched part of it with his brush and made the whole place worse than it was initially. While he was doing all this ,I was with a client and he wound up quite fast and left. I went to look at the paint work and was not amused. Sylvia the superwoman, moved the hevay boxes then went down to the caretaker and requested that the painter be sent back to repaint.

What this meant was that, I was back to square 1, I started to sweep and when he came he was like "you decided to move the boxes" I looked at him with those eyes of dah, was there a choice? Anyways, I have finally sat down for today, tomorrow will take care of itself. For now my hands are so rough and dry, I have cleaned them a few times and they don't seem to be clean enough. Am looking forward to going home but am happy because I know its worth it. SAS will look so great am sure once we begin to set up tomorrow.

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...

One Month Later

Today, exactly 1 month after the surgery on October 14th, we have so much to be thankful for. I thank God that baby girl is doing great, has been on her feet, feeding well, gaining weight and one can hardly know what she had to go through. Today, we also celebrate that baby girl has stopped breastfeeding and for the first time since we came back slept a whole night in her room. Before the surgery we had her on a routine and she had moved to her real bed and was excited about it. After the surgery, there was need for reassurance and she woke up endless times at night while in hospital , just to make sure we were there and she started breastfeeding almost through out the night. When we returned she toned down on the breastfeeding and would wake up once during the night. This was very frustrating to me because it took us many steps behind but today she seems to be on her way to independence and am proud of her.Love you so much baby girl. Today, my beloved had to return to work after ...
