I could I forget my grandmother (90year old)
She is a living gem.She woke me up every morning for 6 years(from class 3-class 8) when I was in primary school.she was my alarm , I couldn't wake up until I heard her calling me.
She prepared my packet lunch in the early cold mornings.she took me to hospital when I became sick.She protected me from village bullies.She took the responsibilities of my late mum when mum passed on at my early age.
Thank God for He didn't disappoint her.I came among top 4 and proceeded to a good high school where I also came among top.
Grandmum , you are my hero
looks like maboyz wa shushu tuko kadhaa hapa.
she remains the most hardworking person I know. always doing more with less, inspiring, and lively.
she was there to provide while I was growing up. waking me up , early each day and prepare me for school.
by night, I used a lot of her paraffin as I did my studies....and I watched her smile on graduation day, and knew she was proud of my achievements.
God grant you more days shush.
posthumously, I have not forgotten my first day in nursery school, when grandpa, holding me by hand walked me to that class. even though he is gone, the feel of his hand on that day, I still reminsce. rip grandpa.
