Nine Families, Countless Blessings: A Journey Back to Those Who Raised Us

Three years. Nine families. A million memories.

We went back in 2021. Not just to visit, but to honour the parents and teachers who raised us.

We brought gifts, but left with something far more valuable: wisdom, laughter, tears, and stories that shaped us.

They survived COVID, retirement, loss, and change. Yet their faith, strength, and love remain intact. 🧓🏽❤️

Be wise. You won’t be young forever. Visit while they’re still here.

The Machogus: Multiplication, Patience & Chicken Money

She drilled us in multiplication with a cane 🫣 and modeled faith with her life 🙏🏾.

In June 2021, we went back. Not for math, but to say thank you.

From chicken money in Kisii to a legacy in Nairobi, Mr. & Mrs. Machogu quietly raised a generation.

Today, we grieve đź’”. The Machogus were murdered at their Elburgon home. Leaving us a testimony of patience, devotion, and faith.

Mwalimu wa Roho na Mwili — Celebrating Mrs. Sikuku

She taught us more than Home Science and Kiswahili. She taught us resilience.

After losing her husband in 1993, Mrs. Sikuku raised 4 children and kept teaching for 30 years.

On November 2020, we returned. Not for a grade, but to say thank you. 🧡
