My first trimester
Am so happy to get to write this. I began this blog before I even became expectant by faith that one day I’d be a mom. The journey has just began. My first weeks have been pretty much normal as most women. I have experienced excess fatigue, to some point I was wondering to myselfContinue reading “My first trimester”
Corporal Punishment
In Kenya the corporal punishment has been returned back to school, after great unrest in schools. My opinion on corporal punishment is okay if only it’s done right. The Bible says spare the rod spoil the child. We punish a child because we love them so much that we want them to grow up toContinue reading “Corporal Punishment”
Do you know your child?
Last Sunday, during the Sunday school session, as usual I allowed every child to tell us how their week has been. I take this opportunity to know each child individually, by asking questions, celebrating them, learning the challenges they are facing in school etc. During that time one of the boys, stated that he wasContinue reading “Do you know your child?”
Mummy is home
I was remembering how as a child I would always look forward to the time mum would show up at the gate. I’d run and be carried in her strong arms. At the times when I’d be very hungry I knew the moment would get into the kitchen I’d be sorted. I still don’t knowContinue reading “Mummy is home”
Train your child today
In our Swahili language we have a proverb that says “samaki mkunje angalia mbichi” it’s translation is bend the fish while it’s still wet. Chances are if one bends a fish while it’s still wet it won’t break, but when it dries up if bend, it’s highly likely it’ll break. The same for a child,Continue reading “Train your child today”

I then realized that as mothers standing in the gap for out children continues for the rest of our lives. My sister in law once toldContinue reading “Mothers – Pray”
Children learn from observation
This weekend I had visited my family, and I had a chance to interact with my brother’s son who is now three or four years old. I noticed he was keen to use the magic words i.e thank you, sorry, welcome, excuse me…As always I went to the mum and asked her what her secretContinue reading “Children learn from observation”
Children need a listening ear
I have a nephew who is the reason I started loving children. He’s just turned six years old. At times he calls to just say hi, maybe because he’s missed me, but there are days he just calls because there’s something that he needs to report. He realized I normally give him a listening ear.Continue reading “Children need a listening ear”
Waiting for the baby
In the African culture most people expect that after the wedding the next thing is a baby. Overtime this has started changing a little bit as people take a while before they decide to have a baby because of various reasons e.g school. However for us it was clear that the culture would stand. BarelyContinue reading “Waiting for the baby”
