Jeff, Sharing Is Caring





It‘s a normal Saturday,nothing fancy happening.

My 2year old son is playing outside with our tenants‘ 3year old boy.

I‘m washing mum‘s moti about to take it for a spin when the 3year old comes to me wailing..

‘‘Mama Jeff!!Jeff ameninyang‘anya..‘‘(points at a toy car that actually belongs to Jeff which Jeff is furiously holding)

‘‘Jeff..patia mtoto toy acheze kidogo akurudishie,’’ I say to Jeff.

"Mtoto..shika toy!," Jeff says while,albeit reluctantly and frowning,handing the toy to the other little guy and the play session continues.

So the day is saved thanks to Mama J who‘s just taught her son to call older kids ‘mtoto‘..*hides*...but he‘s also learning to share!!
