mum to mum – your messages delivered
I have just returned from my second joyous visit with Maasai school children and their beautiful mums in the Northern Rift Valley, Kenya. It was another truly magical week, spent amidst the most welcoming, proud and noble people. Spending time in the company of such extraordinary people, in such challenging yet fantastical lands, is a very humbling experience, and I am counting the days until I can visit with them again.
Last January, knowing that I would be returning to Kenya this year, but not quite certain as to what month, I put a call out to you my fellow mums to help me bring messages of friendship and solidarity to these proud and hardworking mums, who’s lives are far from easy. Well I designed and produced a handbound book to house your beautiful messages of friendship and carried it with me to present to the Masai mums. My heartfelt thanks to everyone who helped me with this – the delight of the mums on listening to your messages being translated and read to them was just fabulous. Asante Sana xx
