Having a family of sponsors means so much to our children and brings them a feeling of friendship and love from beyond the Happy House.
Each sponsor is able to open a different window on the world for their special child by telling them about their home and family life.
So it is it is wonderful for both child and sponsor when they get to meet.
Susan James, who has just returned home to the USA after volunteering with our family, writes about meeting Saumu Safari, the little girl she has sponsored for the past three years.
"I was a joy to meet my sponsor child Saumu.
She is sven years old.
I specially enjoyed
seeing her interactions at school, playing, at PE, and with her friends in the weeks I was at Happy House.
It is an amazing children's home and school that is developing the children's life skills and social skills.
The older ones help greatly with the
younger ones in all areas. They are well behaved in class and are learning all
the subjects.
I see the progress in action and the hard work
of the teachers.
Since I am a substance abuse counselor I was asked to speak in
class 7 . I gave my talk on drugs and the
dangers of drug abuse.
The children listened intently, asked
intelligent questions, and took notes. I used the board to make my
illustrations.
I enjoyed working in the garden and
helping in any way, I love seeing things grow and then becoming food.
I saw the new primary school
being built and the progress they have made it should be done soon if not
already.
California is a very long way to go, but it
was a trip well worth it. I plan to come back, but next time I hope
to bring interested friends.
Sue and Dave keep up the wonderful work
because it is paying off.
Raise the Roof Every day brings us closer to getting the roof on our primary school completed, thanks to the amazing kindness of our friends.

Our Happy House was the focus of a wonderful gathering of
friends when Thornton Cleveleys Inner Wheel held their International Night at
the North Euston Hotel, Fleetwood. And many of the ladies came wearing red as it is the colour of children's school uniform.
After a lovely meal, International organiser Irene Pollitt,
who is in Abu’s sponsor family, introduced Elizabeth Gomm who was able to give
an insight into Mama Sue's story and showed two videos bringing our family to
life.
Before the meal, guests had paid 50p for a photograph of a Happy House child and Elizabeth was able to tell them the stories of the child they had chosen.
She was thanked by Sue Simpson, who is in the sponsor family
of Abu’s sister, Sudi, and who, like Irene had in her introduction, told of how rewarding it is to sponsor a Happy
House child.
She also said of how proud and delighted she and her husband, David, had been to have Sue as a speaker at the District Rotary Conference when David was district governor.
Sue presented Elizabeth with a cheque for £200 from the
proceeds of the evening and that along with another £35 donations and bag sales has been
added to the offline total on our Raise the Roof Appeal to cover the costs of
putting a roof on our new primary school.
Many thanks to everyone who attended for their generosity
and for caring about our children.

Surprise, surprise, Uncle Billy! Our much loved social worker Uncle Billy had the surprise of his life when he returned from an "errand" with Papa Dave and Uncle Red on Friday to find the whole family gathered and set to celebrate his 40th birthday. And the biggest shock of all was that the party, planned down to the finest detail by the kids themselves with help from Mama, had been kept top secret ... something he couldn't believe was possible in a family of more than 100 children! Uncle Billy writes: My Beloved family, I got a pleasant surprise for my Special day! Even now, I can’t believe how it was all organized without me having the slightest of an idea! Keeping a secret in such a big family successfully is not easy at all!
We have a lot to do and time flies fast so I didn’t see it coming.
The previous evening I had a chat with Mama and shared details of a little assignment I was planning to handle outside the office which she tactically deferred till Monday
On Friday afternoon, Papa Dave came in and asked if I would like to accompany him and Red to the new land as he wanted to ‘make some pictures’ and then off we went but to a different direction ...all in all I was still in good hands though at some point I wondered if everything was okay, as it not usual for Papa to go for a cold drink without Mama’s company!!
After a short while Mama phoned Papa’s to which he offered that we were just finishing up an errand at an electrician’s shop and that we wouldn’t be long…which made Red and I burst into laughter,
.In no time we were on our way home where a surprise was in store for me.
When we got to the Happy House I thought we just got in after some special guests …..as the kids were all smartly dressed and singing but wait a minute…it was a birthday song! Papa asked whether it was my birthday and that even made me more confused to which I answered incoherently…. I had forgotten it was my birthday!
For some moments I felt hypnotised and my heart leapt with joy as I started relishing the spectacular event.
It was a lovely party with food, cake, juice, apples and lots of presents!
A special book was presented to me with all the special messages from all our sponsors and friends.
I am deeply humbled.
My special thanks to Mama, Papa, Aunty Rose, Susanna Gregorio, Red, Brenda & Chloe for being there to share the joyful moments.
The staff had worked tirelessly in odd hours to make it a success, our wonderful kids for the beautiful presentations.
I phoned my mum who shed tears of joy while adding what she repeatedly says that I am blessed to have such a loving & supportive family.
There was more in store as I got a dinner invite in a nice restaurant with great ambience and good food.
This is my BEST BIRTHDAY party EVER and am so indebted to you all for making it absolutely fantastic for me
.To say that I thoroughly enjoyed it would be an understatement.
Thank you one, thank you all; you can rest assured that these special memories will linger on for the rest of my life. God bless you all.
Uncle Billy.

Fikiri takes over the bog to write about two weekend activities - young farmers and church.
When it was time for
young farmers, Uncle Alex called us to the garden and the young farmers went to the garden.
Uncle Alex asked us to plant cabbages. kales and tomatoes and then we went to the old greenhouse and cleaned
it.
Every Sunday morning after breakfast we are
waiting for some minutes to leave and then at 10. 00 am we reach the church.
We are welcomed well and they tell us to
sit down when Pastor Nzai arrives.
He starts preaching and after preaching he is calling the
praise and worship.
I like going to church.

Libby's week started with a talk to Blackpool Civic Trust in the ornate setting of of the council chamber of Blackpool Historic Town Hall.
Members of the Trust found the story of Sue and Dave's journey that led to the Happy House and the children they are helping there, both moving and inspiring.

On Wednesday, Libby made a return visit to Thornton Ladies Club where she and Sue had given a talk a few years ago, They were pleased and amazed to hear of the great strides made since that time and a club donation of £200 was increased by £60 from bag sales and donations.
Yesterday she had the pleasure of meeting year representatives of Keller House at St Aidan's CE Technology College, Preesall, where Mrs Joanne Rossall's K7 form are in our Linus' sponsor family.
They work so hard to raise money and Libby was given a cheque for £50 from the school charity fund and another £50 raised by Mrs Rossall's students.

Thank you Civic Trust, Thornton Ladies and St Aidan's for being such fantastic friends to our family and a special mention to Paul Humble from the Civic Trust for helping out with a few technical hitches and to Cameron from St Aidan's for greeting Libby when she arrived.

In times of hardship, children suffer. And now, in our coastal area of Kenya,many people, who were already struggling, now have no prospect of work and have been pushed from the edge of poverty into destitution. Yesterday, we welcomed another three children into our family because their aunt, who has been trying to look after them, is no longer able to cope. Stephano Sifa, 10, and his sister Purity Pili Kache, seven, and Jessica Hadija, four, were left with their mum, who suffered mental health problems, when their father abandoned them. When their mum died three years ago, their aunt (pictured with them) had no choice but to take the family in but she has been finding it increasingly difficult to shoulder the burden of care and had to seek help, Today, Stephano, Purity and Jessica will be settling in to school, making new friends, and embarking on a childhood where hunger and anxiety will a thing of the past. With so many new arrivals in the last couple of months we are yet to start sponsor families for a number of children. If you can help by becoming a sponsor and changing both a child's life, and your own, please contact elizabethgomm@childrenofwatamu.net

Thank you to all those who have donated to our urgent Raise the Roof Appeal which launched yesterday, we truly appreciate your kindness and generosity.

Please take a couple of minutes to watch this appeal from Mama Sue:
Our school build has hit a cash crisis so, today, we are launching an urgent appeal for £4,000 to raise the roof on the primary school.
Once the roof is on we can get the classrooms finished and the primary children moved over the new site alongside their younger brothers and sisters who have settled in brilliantly in the completed kindergarten.
Relocating the school has been a huge and worrying undertaking.
Mama, who speaks directly to you in this video filmed yesterday, keeps a tight rein on spending and economies have been made everywhere possible. Mama and Elizabeth are working flat out to try to bring in new funds for the build at the same time as our family has grown to 106, with the arrival of more children in desperate need of a safe home.
Moving the school will give us eight more rooms for family use, which means that we will be able to take many more children who need us.
At a time where so many in our community are out of work, our build has brought much needed employment meaning those workers can, at least, feed their families.
Every one of the 66,000 makuti palm tiles needed for the roof are handmade locally, again giving an income where it is desperately needed.
Knowing how to react in an emergency is important, so it was very helpful to get first aid lessons from nurse Jo Reid when was visiting the Happy House.
Jo, who works at Spire Fylde Coast Hospital, gave a presentation to our staff, and another to our older children.
She talked them through the ABC of first aid - airways, breathing and circulation.
With the help of volunteer "casualties", Jo showed the recovery position and how to open airways.
She also covered other scenarios including burns, choking, broken
bones, and bleeding.
Jo gave a demonstration of bandaging, using of PE coach Steve as her subject as he had a swollen ankle at the time!
Mama said: "It really was very interesting and extremely helpful.''
Many thanks to Jo, who was visiting, from Lytham, with husband Peter and son Maxwell, for sharing her knowledge in this way.
Junior blogger Rose Chai writes about two reccent additions to the primary school teaching team: We have new teachers who have come to Happy House School. One is Madam Nellie and the another is Mister Faraji he has been teaching Class Four, while Madam Nelly is
teaching. class six .
They are good to us and have been teaching
well, telling people the right things to do.
After their first week in Watamu, our friends Brenda and Red Groves have been joined for the reminder of their break by their granddaughter, Chloe Groves.
Chloe, like Brenda and Red, came laden with useful items for our family including shoes, clothes and sanitary pads.
And as she is in Said's sponsor family she popped in a little gift for her special boy too!
Auntie Brenda delivered a gift from her brother Terry Stock, to Lovinne, the Dr Danwata Scholarship student he supports, and to his Happy House sponsor friend
Brian.
Auntie Brenda is in little Charity's sponsor family, so of course, there was a little gift and a big hug for Charity too!
Brian, Said and Brenda
Another visitor this week was Carol Sohier (pictured with Mama) who brought with her a wonderful donation of £450 which she raised by holding two car boot sales, boosted by sales of knitted hats by her friends mother and daughter, Carol Snedon and Phyllis Drak.
These four pitiful little people are the newest members our family.
Sanita,12, Salama,seven, Amina, five, and Stephen, three, were in terrible shape when they were brought home to our Happy House.
Hungry, dirty and all infected with ringworm, their was brought to notice by a health worker.
None of the kids have been in school since 2013, and were being left alone for long periods while their 25 year old mum was out, with her youngest child who is a baby, seeking work.
She was widowed in 2010 when her husband, Samuel, the family's sole breadwinner, died a from complications after being bitten by a dog, He was buried in his ancestral homeland but because his wife hadn't paid any "bride price" she and the children were taken back home.
She has been struggling ever since, depending on wellwishers to help raise her family which increased with the arrival of Stephen and a baby. The three eldest children had not been attending school since 2013 and had no hope of a return to education.
There were concerns that the eldest child was at high risk of drifting on to the streets or into child labour in order to be able to meet the basic needs of herself and her siblings. Health workers have arranged to get the baby on a nutrition programme to improve her health, and it was felt that with this support the mother would be able to care for her youngest child as she would be in a better position socio-economically. She has been advised on the importance and need for family planning.
Uncle Billy said: " Sanita, Salama, Amina and Stephen are now assured of better living conditions and quality education.
Welcome Home beloved ones." * The arrival of these four lovely children brings our family to 105. We desperately need more sponsors for these and other recent arrivals. £20 a month will help to give a child a secure future - please can you help.

Our Happy House soccer players have a new strip to turn out in.
As we have several teams, boys and girls, the additional strip will really come into play at inter-school tournaments when several teams are playing on the same day.
It has come from Ardington & Lockinge Under 13s who last season were lucku enough to have a new sponsor Dawson's Landscape Services.
When owner Barry Dawson suggested donating their redundant kit to the Happy House they were pleased to do so, and knowing Brenda and Red Groves, who live close by in Wantage, were coming to see us asked them to bring it..
Our footballers were keen to try it on for a photo-shoot.
"We are delighted to see them looking so smart, " said Barry.
Thank you Barry and Ardington & Lockinge Under 13s, it will get plenty of wear!
In the first School Report of the new term, Mr Mdachi reports :
Happy New Year to everyone from our Happy House School.
We are now in our second week of term. We started the school year and new term with high enrolment of new pupils
especially in the kindergarten.
The opening assembly was led by Mama Sue who welcomed us all back to school. a
Serious learning started on the first day and our Primary Class Eight, who will be the first Happy House candidates to sit the Kenya Certificate of Primary Education, are already busy preparing for their national exam.
This will will take
place in November.
Teachers are also very busy assisting the candidates, who are our
pioneers. We are equipping them with the necessary skills needed for them to
make Happy House shine come December when the results will be announced.
We
hope that our candidates will do us proud and Happy House will be known all over
for best results and we shall be singing “Happy House power! Super power!”.
The Kindergarten pupils are also enjoying their new school.
The Happy House family kids are excited as they leave
to go to school in the morning and back in the evening.This move has created a clear distinction between the home and the school enriching their life experience.
This term we shall have ball games activities and our
team is ready hoping that we shall do better.
Our new teachers, who are very welcome, are settling in to the Happy House way of doing things.
Happy to be back, our wonderful friends Brenda and Red Groves arrived back in Watamu at the weekend.
Brenda and Red, who are in Charity's sponsor family, have been supporting Sue's work for many years and are regular visitors to Watamu, staying at Turtle Bay Hotel.
Brenda's brother, Terry, sponsors Brian and scholarship student Lovinne and granddaughter, Chloe, is in Said's sponsor family.
Brenda and Red, from Wantage, brought with them a suitcase packed to the brim with goods Brenda had collected or which were donated by friends including Tom Whittaker, Ann Summers and Jenny Kenrick and football strip donated by Barry Dawson which will be featured on the blog on Thursday..
Mama said: "What they have brought is amazing, so many much-needed items. Nappies, sanitary pads for the girls, toiletries, shoes, pencils, books, knickers clothes etc. I am quite overwhelmed there is so much.
" It's going to be such a help."
Brenda and Red are delighted to be back and to see for themselves how the Happy House and its family has grown.
They were shown round our relocated school where Brenda had a chance to say hello to Charity.
Thank you Brenda and Red for all your support and your friendship. Mama, Papa and all the family are so pleased to see you again and look forward to Chloe's arrival later this week. Enjoy your stay.
WI welcome
There was a WI debut for Elizabeth Gomm when she went along to Ansdell and Fairhaven WI, Lancashire, last night to talk about Happy House..
In true WI tradition, she was given a very warm reception by her lovely audience who were inspired by all that Mama Sue has achieved in 15 years dedication to the children of Watamu.
And they were in awe of the sheer scale of the Happy House and the size of the family she has created.
With a WI donation, sale of bags and personal donations the evening raised £174.50 for our family, every penny of which will go to make a difference to the lives of our Happy House children.
