People often ask me where feels more like home. Kitale or California? It seems like a simple question, but they both feel like home equally to me. After spending the last month back in California I started to think about it. California has been my home the longest. I love coming home to my family and friends who provide constant support even from afar. When I come back it's like we don't even miss a beat and pick up right where we left off. People are so generous and willing to support the work going on at Precious Kids center. I was given more donations than I could fit in the three suitcases I brought back and was overwhelmed by the financial support I received from the people who hear about PKC and want to get involved in whatever way they can. I am truly blessed and honored to call each and every one of you my friends.
The
other side of home is Kenya. These kids are my family. If they are having a bad
day they just need a hug they turn to me, on a good day they want me to share
their joy with them and everyday in between we live life together. It’s not always a walk in the park, but who wouldn’t love coming home to this every day?
I
am blessed to be a part of these two great worlds and grateful for all the
people in my life that make it possible.
We love you Sammy this is so well written and so true when we see you it's like we saw you yesterday! I can't wait for the day we get to come visit your other home!
