So today marks the first day of a new month, the 1st of December. It also marks an additional year to my mother's life. It is her birthday!
Happy birthday to a woman who has been my mother from the day I was born till now.
She refused to abort me when my father said he didn't want more than two children (redpiller much ??) Lol.
Nah... Just that he had others from other women. Family planing?? Economy for show am shege. But I think Abacha was President then, not Buhari. So.....

Anyways, why do our men do these things though?? Where is da love? Tradition my *ss

Back to Mummy. Mummy, you were always a strong woman, brave, hard worker.
A prayer warrior that could give your pastor and prayer leader in church a run for their money (did I hear someone say tithes and offerings ) let me not sound politically incorrect right now. But they do hold their tithes (money) close to their hearts, don't they?

Away from mischief, back to talking about mamalet. Mummy, you were a strict, but also a bubbling mother, over the years. You could beat and punish for Africa and Madagascar join. Ehh... your reputation precedes you la. That's why I had to add the island of Madagascar into this. Even our friends used to respect themselves when they come around and you are at home.

You were annoying to some. Ok, you were also annoying to me, but I get it. You were just trying to do what was right and maybe the methods were a little bit stringent. Sometimes in the past, your emotions, just like the rest of us, did get the better part of you. But you are human. So you reacted as you saw fit. Even if that meant slapping any of your erring child in front of a visitor (ouch!) Kids could be stubborn. I get it.

We love you, we pray that life will favour you as you age further. If you could survive these past Buhari-dominated years, and you still didn't get hypertensive, then I see you living up to 90 years. Should I add that extra ten mama? But I know you want to just go to heaven already and be with your mother whom you never had the chance to meet. I know you will. Even if I ain't sure of myself, I am sure of you going to that place called Paradise and Heaven. You want to see what your mother would have looked like. Motherly advice, memories and all. You've shared your story with me and I remember crying uncontrollably as a 9 year old child hearing you tell me the things you did, while I tried to compile them in an assignment given to me by the class teacher to write and essay about my parent's early life.

God will grant you that desire on that glorious day of the Lord. Even your brothers and sisters who all died at infancy and at the early years of their lives, you'll get to see them. As you used to say , " there is a reason why I am still here. That I didn't die as they all did "
Yes, I think so too. Out of four, only you survived childhood and are alive today. God knows best. Pain will be wiped away. In Jesus' name, Amen!!!

Happy birthday mother.
Let me flood their NL timelines with your pictures from some years back, from childhood and even before I was born.
Nairaland good people, say a quick prayer for this amazing mother of ours. A Christian that can make you feel you don't know how to exercise faith properly . She will make you rethink your position on God. She knows that faith talk well, and she lives it. I wish I could emulate her, but nah....seems I'm already lost in the world
But I'll find my feet before it's too late, and I'll serve at the master's feet too!
Happy birthday Mrs. Rose! That's her name, Rose. So say a prayer for her.
Please witches and wizards keep off this thread and don't gamble with your lives oh!! I will slap you back into your dungeon coven.

Love you mummy!!! Cake toh sure for you.

Signed:

Your crazy, good son.

Mummy and little baby JerryBizz
@ Sheraton Hotel and Towers Abuja
Year, 1997 . Mummy's birthday 24 years ago. How time flies.

Let me rush out and get something for mum, and then pickup her cake too.
Yes o, let me show her off for today. Celebrate them now you have them alive. For no one knows the hour when men will cry. When women will sigh. When tears will flow, and the ones we love are no more.

Ok, that's just me trying to sound poetic . But you get the point I was making, yes?
Indulge me for today jare...

**Love and light to y'all**

Ummm, may be because were rather occupied to notice.
Posting snide remarks about the gender you don't care enough for. Complaining. Maybe that's why...dunno.
" This too will pass " do u recall this? So...

JerryBizz... I'll respond soon. I haven't been able to read your mentions.

Datboredberry:
You're extremely intelligent... You're right... Everything you wrote us right! But I didn't comment outta pity... I wanted to know what you were up to...

That night, I wanted to reply... But I slept off... The next morning, I didn't see any need to do so.

Its not that I don't trust you... I didn't feel like ruining this friendship... You might not get it... Chatting with you here on Nairaland, it's for the best... If I get your sole attention... On WhatsApp...Things wouldn't end well...

Hope you can read his signature clearly.
