I sit here in the Matatu in “my seat”. They all know now. My thoughts turn to my children. Turn to my shortcomings as a Mom and Grandma. You can only do the Mom thing once. So what you miss or what you neglect or what you don’t know cannot be done again. But the joy of my boys filled my life. I am sorry for my shortcomings, for the times I would have given you anything yet failed.
But here in the matatu, I want to thank you. Thank you for being in my life. Thank you for the fun, sad and mad. Thank you for my grand children- they bring a full heart to cheer me.
Enough for now, I am beginning to emote in Kenya, a cultural nono.
