The morning surprise!



I always wonder how Jesus felt when His parents Joseph and Mary told him of that morning when three wise men followed a star from the east to bring him gifts of myrrh, gold and frankincense. He must have felt loved and treasured even though he was born in an animal shed layed in a manger. But one thing is for sure, even though Jesus was God with us, he surely knew that he had people who cared for him to come all the way from far away just to see him.
On Christmas morning, the MITS family woke up to a surprise morning of gifts in their stockings that had been made by Jackton and had probably forgotten about them. If they only knew that their Mr. Santa was none other than Joel and Mbuvi , who had woke up early to fill their bags with goodies. Each student and team got an orange, a banana, amango, peanuts, fifty shillings and a chocolate bar. It was all smiles for the children and teachers who were there. With such happy faces, it was worth waking up early and I think Mbuvi should consider a career as a Santa Claus, the only problem would be, its done once a year.
Anyway after the morning surprise, we waited for the Christmas party in the afternoon. There was rice, sodas, goat meat that had been slaughtered by the farm team and the food was deliciously cooked by Elizabeth and her team. In the evening, we finished the day with a good movie to crown a good day in remembrance of the birth of our savior Jesus Christ

Merry Christmas everyone and a Prosperous new year!!!
