Memories
They say that life is beautiful, especially when you are surrounded by those who honestly and unfailingly love and support you. After the lockdown, I was busy being a Baby girl, even though it was difficult to return to work after the online learning, and then BAM, a month into real life, we learned that baby number two was on her way. To be completely honest, I was thrilled because I thought my daughter needed a friend at this particular time.
I had a toddler who needed all the care in the world, and my second trimester was more enjoyable. I can still recall how frequently I wondered, "How did our parents manage to have up to 8 children?" (They remain the true MVPs!) The third trimester of my pregnancy was what I'll call "sweet and sour." Sweet in the sense that I was thrilled about the arrival of my young child (we even knew she was a girl and had chosen a name because that was what her sister desired) and we couldn't wait to hold her in our arms. On the other hand, it was sour because those were the nights that were lengthy, and I still had to arrive early for work. I hardly slept; on some days, I struggle to hear the alarm ring. But in all honesty, I couldn't wait to meet her.
When she finally came in May 2021, I was struck with unending loveπ. Of course, I was in pain, but the moment I saw her, I forgot about it. She was the most ideal human being I had ever seen; in a few days, she would turn 14 months old! She's growing so fast. I still find myself staring at the lovely girls whom God has given us.
Most times, I smile as I remember the days(before the girls) my house was so neat and well tidied. these days? oh! have a baby they say!! I pray for everyone believing the process for a baby or babies as the case may be. we shall all celebrate and be celebrated.π
