'Flowers she wore on her feet'.

This is the story of an extraordinary girl and young woman with a brilliant mind, a heart of gold, and who is gone too soon. Neema was a priceless gift to us. Neema was an extraordinary young woman, with joy and wisdom, and remarkably profound and greater understanding about herself and others. She taught us everything worth knowing about life and love, everything about what it means to be a best friend. Neema, outlook for future is something about this book. Neema would have wanted the world to hear the voice of children and young people, girls and young people in particularly young women around the world, their walking sound when they walk wearing their beautiful flowers on their feet. Meaning that those girls and young women around the world have worked hard the same way Neema did, searching for their favorite flowers and they were able to see them and finally finding their ways to broadcast them, and therefore, finding their unique values. This is what Neema would have wanted the world to hear from children and young people saying that we go out and we're asking for help and support, they will wear flower on their feet because they worked hard to get see them and therefore they can now see themselves, and therefore , the walk by itself is a voice and a cry for help and they are saying help us because we would like to contribute to the world and we're read and we know what we love and what we want to do and what we're loving doing and we just want opportunities to let us equip with knowledge and skills then we will all be ready and set to contribute to the world we live in our own unique way happily.

We created a lifestyle around her, a little girl growing and developing very fast in all areas. Slowly, we could see ourselves passing on our love for travelling to our little Neema. Initially Neema was going to school alone and would come home to tell her little brother about her exciting experiences. We could see the two of them playing and talking about school and travelling, and in particular we saw Michael’s curiosity clearly. He was curious about school-life experiences and especially schooling in a different country. This was the time Michael was still going to kindergarten school.

Then, little Michael would say to his sister that “the day will come when I will be coming to school with you.” He also told his sister that he enjoyed what he was hearing from her about going to school in a different country. From time to time, he would come with us and ask us a lot of questions, and he would also ask when we would be taking him to school with his sister Neema. Michael was happy when he was told the time would come soon for him to go to school with his sister Neema. We explained to him that the right time would come when he was big enough to come out of kindergarten and go to school with his sister Neema. This is when we remembered Neema as a little girl, and this experience took us back to when we saw Neema start to show us her love for nature at a very young age, and by that time she was literate. We remain hopeful that the day will come when we see Michael doing the same as his sister, and maybe more than that.

The right time came, and Michael became a big boy, big enough to enroll in and start primary school. Michael was taken to do an entry test the same way Neema did. Michael passed the entry test and he was allowed to enroll and started schooling in Kenya. Now, we had both Neema and Michael going to school, and both went to the same school in Kenya. We both enjoyed travelling to Kenya to bring Neema and Michael to school and pick them up. We found ourselves bringing a little Michael into our world along with our love for travelling, and therefore four of us together walked with this love and enjoyed travelling to our neighbouring country, Kenya. As we continued to parent and enjoy our two children, making the most of this unique experience and having lots of fun and challenges, we were grateful that we did it that way and continued to stay on top of the education plan we had created for Neema and Michael.
