I have three children who are in primary school. Their education is my priority at the moment. I want to reach a point where I can easily pay school three terms prior and not be worried anytime schools open. We have been struggling to pay their school fees since I depend on my husband's income who is a casual worker. What he manages to earn we use to buy food and what is left can then cater to school fees arrears.

In October I was blessed to host my parents for the first time since I was married. I saw it as a miracle when they arrived. Usually, it is the daughters who visit the parents once they get married but they took the step to come to see my inlaws and where I now call home. It was a great day.

My main challenge has been trying to make ends meet with the high cost of living. I am a farmer and the past three seasons have been difficult since I have had no produce. We buy everything we need from the shops. This has made life very costly. Every time I go to the shop to buy a bag of flour it gets to me considering that I am a maize farmer and I could have easily accessed this from my farm without buying it.
