Mwikali in Kenya

Mwikali in Kenya
May 30, 2006

Mwikali is one of my daughter's correspondent children. She has been writing letters to her since January 2015 and has received 29 letters so far. Sadly, the person who does the physical writing of the letters has handwriting that is very difficult for us to decipher, so we are missing out on much of what is being written.

She lives with her mom, dad, three siblings and grandparents. She attends KE 722 (Mbangwani AIC Church Child Development Center. At the project she learns how to operate a computer and plays soccer. She hopes to become a doctor someday.

I've always wondered how Compassion deals with the handwriting thing -- is that anything they can fix?

I don't know...I've never asked.

That's neat that she wants to be a doctor! And she's a great artist! But what a bummer about the handwriting... We've had the same problem with a lot of the translations from Ethiopia. It's kind of a tease to know the kid said something but to be unable to decipher it!
