q2:Its a blessing to have children because they are a gift from God and an even more blessing to have children who have prospered in life and are willing to completely support as their parents. For us, life is not easy. We really struggled to raise up our children and ensure that they were at school. I remember we would wake up early in the morning to make up bricks and even burnt trees to produce charcoal which we sold to get money for our children's school fees. Thanks God because we all worked hard and two of them got employed in April this year and two are in university. The two who got jobs in April have now started to pay the school fees of those in the university and have even opened up business for us. Am really proud of them.
