Good things follow after the bad things...

Edward: no longer in charge. He was a good father but unfortunatly refused to follow any instruction about technical and administration issues. This resulted in financial lost and we cant afford that as an orphanage.Also for personal reasons which involved the relationship to my care taker a his sister in law, we have released Edward Oketch.

Myriam and Humprey: released for some serious reasons. Lets say this if you want to know the truth just email me.

July 2th, we left with two cars to Dusseldorf Germany where we would board the LTU to Mombasa. It took us 2 hours to arrive in Dusseldorf. We were very early and waited for some time by walking, shopping and then checking in. We had three big suitcases and 4 handluggage, Joa in the buggy and Nathan. The flight was very much ok, most of the time the children were asleep so it was not hard to travel.

We arrived in Mombasa on July 3th and were awaited by the taxi driver. We went straight to our house to ress and fresh up a bit before visiting the home. Kenya.. here we are for 5 long weeks, plenty of time. plenty to do plenty to enjoy... were our thoughs. But once again we were confronted by the brutality of staf members. After this story you truthfully wonder is there anyone you can trust?

The children were excited to see us and we also enjoyed to see them when we came in the home later that day. Ashonished to see how they have been growing and how well behaved they are. Baby Faith walking ! Beetie a really beauty! Johnson, so tall and still the same...Salomé a very beautiful and sweet girl. Maxwell still longing to be a soldier, Gregory a funny but some times so quiet boy, Moses a little billy Turfie, he runs so funny and like to eat and eat... Dixon, cute active boy like to get a lot of attention. Sylvester changed a lot. He talks very well, and enjoys it so much when you take him to the beach! Dennis, same big eyes, wondering, asking... Maurice, a boy with a lot of joy. Selina, changed a lot since she came to us. She is so happy with us. She can only sometimes get very agressive and still has attacks of epilepsy. We didnt bring a lot of presents but brought some clothes and toys, and shoes.

The first week we were almost daily in the home. We returned to our house in the evening as we didnt have dinner there. The dinner table was fully occupied with the children, staf and volunteers. Humprey and Myriam were happy to see us ( how we were wrong ) and James showed us how he turned into a big young man, cooking well, and educating the children a lot about manners. James used to live in the streets when we took him with us. He was by then about 14 years old. He is now 18 years, a handsome young man, a caring well about the volunteers. I think when I leave him in the home, one day he will disappear to Europe with one of the volunteers as well... ( that happened before )
