‘Nakupenda’ means I love you in Swahili.
My mother is Kenyan, born and raised in the Kikuyu tribe. She came here from poverty as a teenager, and succeeded in her dreams of becoming a registered nurse & having a beautiful family.
Her father was a musician.
He had dreams of coming to America, the land of opportunity.
His mother was a singer ....
I am proud of my culture,
I am the product of my ancestors
And as they watch me from above I honor their memory by keeping the song going ☺️
