A Merry Christmas at the Maternity Home

Our girls and staff celebrated Christmas and most of them experienced many firsts!

Many Kenyans don't have money for Christmas gifts and a tree is a luxury. Our girls and staff were blessed with that and more! Each girl received a necklace that says "You are Loved" and a new pair of shoes. Our staff members each got a Christmas bonus. 

Besides opening their first Christmas gifts, they also visited the hospital that cares for our girls and babies and they delivered delicious goodies.

Maureen's mom and brothers spent the day celebrating with them. (Our first born baby):

It was the beginning of many wonderful traditions!
