It is Mother's Sunday!
What do you have to say about your mother today?
Let's all appreciate our mothers' efforts. They are really worth the celebrations. My mother (as fondly called Maami) told me I was just 4 months old when she had to leave my father's house due to polygamous quarrels. I'm the last born of my mother. She really had to struggle to bring us up to the best of her ability. If she had not left to ensure my safety, the fury of a polygamous home might have sent me back to the underworld. So, I felt no paternal care at early childhood. You know those moments when you eagerly hope your daddy arrives soon at nights so you can play with him & sleep amidst your parents. Just a parent I had then. Whenever any of my mother's male relatives visited, 'is this my father?' I would ask Maami, then my elder siblings would be making jest of me because they knew our father well, but I didn't! I later knew him though & he appeared to be very nice & caring too. I must be sincere, he's worth sharing from the glory of the Father's Day too. I'm sure he'd do more if he's capable. I now realized he had to stay away for few years (of my life) to let peace reign. Dad hardly raised his hands against the children unlike Maami who would give you punishments & beat the hell out of you in the midnight hourscheesy. And then at early hour of the day (like 5am), she would seat you down and talk sense into your skull. It's that moment you would prefer beatings to disciplinary talksgrin. Thank God she's able to nurture us well. Meanwhile, it was like hell seeing her going through pains of hustling. If I start to mention all she had to do because of children, there would be no space left on this thread.
Thank you, ma! May your days on earth be long so that you can eat the fruits of all your labour.

MAAMI!
