This Young Man of mine

He's 5 months now.
Five whole months.
And a whole new experience all together.

I am a repeat offender and I thought that Mothering would come easily this time round
Afterall, I've been at it for a while now.

But no, this young lad insists on being his own man.
His first word is 'Awo' in response to hello

He's my first baby to reject dairy milk.
I know he shouldn't be doing dairy before 1 year of age
but Formula is not easy on the pocket.
Single parenting....hmmm

So, Micah Adam....I love the sound of that.
You are YOU.

We all love you.
Your sisters hate it when you cry.
They still treat you as their favorite toy.

We love you Micah.
Keep growing My Son

(giggles) She had this for me. Mbu...there was a football match last night and her twitter timeline was ....(failed to rephrase her statement.

Then also mbu the other gal/woman came crying to her atti The Other Guy had broken her heart! And am like, for real! For real real? She: But also you, what did she expect from that one? Hmmm!

I never used to be

Sitting at Ciao Ciao nursing an ice cream gone liquid. Am here waiting for a friend to show up, did lunch at a beautifuly laid back home restaurant, rode across town for ice-cream when i should be... Nah i shouldn't be nothing. Well, he had to step out and take care of some business, and i love the quiet. It's like, I just rediscovered me. Sitting here watching people, writing out conversation scripts for couples (stuff i assume they are saying depending on body language) Unplugging people who walk in and out. Now, that is what/who I was. I loved my corners. I loved talking to myself and coming up with conspiration theories about everything. Hey, i lived out some of my theories and those are some of the best memories. So, as i sit at this hard wooden bench at this silly expensive bogus ice-cream place in a so-called rich-neighborhood, listening to TIMBERLAKE'S Mirrors and watching my ice cream melt..... I decided to just reach for a note book. And here I am. i am many thing

Maybe I deserve

They often say: 'what goes around, comes around' Are they right, or are they right!!!!!!!! am so infatuated with this guy, and many a time, I have actually thought, he's the one. I don't know why i can't see that am a just a means to an end. and am not the end. Well, it will not help beating myself about it, but indulge me. PLEASE!!! well, yet again, am being played, and am so gullible it hurts, all he has to do is smile. yes, we are talking Mr. Lover again. But this time, maybe I deserve it. I am seeing someone else who is madly in love with me and seeing Mr.Lover. So what goes around Sure does come around. want to cry so badly it hurts. But am not gonna do anything stupid this time. will let it pass. and life will move on. Won't even mention a word, let alone refer to it. "ndi ne Jajja wange, ne Rinah" \Those words hurt, like hell.
