Mothers' program

The mothers have been progressing well. Catherine at this moment she can do her duty well especially in the kitchen chores she has her duty which is on Thursdays she can now wake up early enough and prepare breakfast and now she can cook even dinner for everyone before, it was not easy for her. Tabitha assists her. They are together. At first she could not even dare to try, but we all did appreciate her for having confidence in herself. In education she is also doing well especially by doing her homework as required. At this moment she has some interest in education. Catherine still has some problems in relating with her son Mutua. There are times when she becomes very angry at him which would make him not want to see her or even be fed by her. This at times makes her feel bad because Mutua would crawl away from her to any other rather than to her. We also did some birthday party for Mutua he is now one year old and nine months. Jane is trying to teach her to love her son. We have also realized she did not experience the motherly love. Her father was so harsh to her.Millicent is back to classes but she also plaits the dummy to improve on her hairdressing skills. (she was taken in by Nargis of Narcisse Hair Salon, a prestigious salon in the town. Nargis agreed to train). During the weekends we planning for her to go to the farm (Kamulu) and help in the saloon too.
Eunice is doing well in education especially in mathematics. Although she has fear of trying to do anything, she fears to fail and at many times she would be correct but because of the fear she ends up failing. She still has a problem of shouting at her son who would not at times listen to her. This irritates her so much.
Elizabeth now back to books but not fully because she still has to take cake of her son Larry. Larry is very healthy we’ve been so hard on her to continue to breastfeeding him. During this time Muna'a had some skin infection. After tests she had scabies due to dirt and we were wormed it was infectious and due to that she was prescribed to use antiseptic liquid.

Dear Ann, I remember you from two years ago when you took us on a walk thru Eastleigh. We are coming back in early Nov. so I hope I will get to meet you again. You are truly a servant of God for the work you do w/ the women in Eastleigh. Just like the kids they are getting a second chance. May God continue to bless you and keep you safe....Larry Hagerman
