I can never wipe off the memory that I met my current stepmom for the first time.After I parted with my father for ages, I moved to America and was
with him. In the beginning, she made sure to let me know that I was welcome in her

mother because my new life began when I came to
with her. Today I say to my mother, Mrs. Sherrill Kirundi, thank you, mom. Thank you for your giving me my
childhood back.
