Kids Summer Party Nairobi, Kenya

My B-day!

When I woke up, I was so sleepy. I asked my son to go and get something while I tried to sleep for two more minutes. When we came back, he came back with a big smile on his face, and then he jumped up and said: "Happy Birthday to you... Happy Birthday to you..." With great excitements on his face. He sang the entire song, and even remembered my age. This was the greatest gift ever. At the end he hugged me and told me that he loves me. At night we went out for dinner, and when we returned, our neighbors prepared great food for my b-day. It was great!

My Childhood Memories!

About 7 years ago, I started writing a story about my childhood memories. I spent almost 10 years in exile (refugee camps in Angola and Zambia). while I was living in these two camps, there were many good, bad, and funny adventures that I want to share with the world. When I started my Masters degree, I decided to put this project aside. After my graduate degree, I wanted to take a long break to refresh my brain, and enjoy time with my family. I think I'm ready to pick up this project. I want to give myself 1year to complete it. When we go to Namibia this year, my goal is to compile all the exile pictures, and any other piece of information to help improve my book. I'll keep you posted on the progress once a month.

Mother's day!

Today is a special day to celebrate. Being a mother is a wonderful yet challenging. You can't get enough sleep even though you are not breastfeeding at night anymore, you don't have privacy, your sister or friend calls you, and you tell them to hold on 10 times in three minutes. You can't finish eating a meal for straight three days without getting up to get a cup of milk, or help someone go to the potty, or give them more food, and the list goes on. But when I look at it at the end of the day, it's worth it. Those smiles, and hugs are the best gifts ever. For a while I have been searching for an idea to run a small business from home. I finally discovered it, little did I knew that after publishing my first book, the work has just began. Marketing a book is not an easy task. Today I came across this article:How to market and promote a book I have learned a few good tips, and I'm still searching for ways to market my book/books. Happy mother's day!
