Mwujizi Kidogo

Many of you know that my sister, Jane sponsors a student who has special health issues and needs. It has been touch and go for him for quite some time, and without the sponsorship and support of the school, all believe he would not make it for very long. Since he has been with the school, he has received critical medical care and support, and is now in school most days, and doing better than could have been expected.

The most amazing thing of all is the level of absolute joy and happiness that surrounds his whole little being anytime you see him. One of the teachers yesterday visited his home with me and taught me a new Kiswahili phrase - Mwujizi Kidogo - the little miracle. Above and below are pictures - playing outside and in class working hard on his learning.
