He came to Happy House in 2010 with his younger brother Francis and baby sister, Mwende, having endured a difficult time with their sick mum.
For the first time, Musyoka, the eldest and the carer to the two little ones, was able to be a child, to go to school and to have fun in a happy, caring, family.
Five years later they were able to go to live with their grandparents, north of Nairobi, and with whom, through Happy House, they had built a loving relationship.
A few months ago they returned to our care, for just one reason - as Musyoka explains:
"Two years ago me, Francis and Mwende went home to live with our grandparents.
We loved to live with them.
I enjoyed it so much I even joined with them in farming and looking after the goats and cows and growing crops.
We were all happy.

There was just one problem we had which was about our school which was dropping.
We went to school always, but we were lacking a lot of things.
We lacked teachers, school facilities and books.
I decided I should tell Mama Sue about our big problem and she said that once a Happy House kid, always a Happy House kid. She said we could come back if we would like to and talked to our grandad.
She arranged for the transport to get us safely back home again to join our Happy House family and we are so happy.
We now have a good education.
