Hi friends,
Hope you are fine. We have come home for our mid-term break of four days. Although short, I will use it to prepare for my national exam. I will assist my parents with home chores . In school ,we had music festivals and our school won several songs . There were also ballgames and unfortunately our school football team was defeated and became position two.
I really thank you for your support towards my education. I pray that God showers his blessings upon you. When we resume back on Monday, I will continue working hard and smart. Our teachers are always determined to give us the best so that we can get good results at end of the four years. I promise that I will not let you down.
I wish you a nice time

Grace,
Thank you for the update! Wishing you all the best on a good term. I am looking forward to hearing about it.
How is the weather in Kenya? We just had the first day of the fall season here and the weather is just starting to get a little cooler.
Take care and thank you again for the update!
