Hello...


Hello guys,

Hope everybody's been doing great! 

I've been extremely busy over the last couple of months. Particularly from mid-May until recently. 

My baby boy turned 10 earlier this month and I did it big. Well, as big as my cloth could cut it. Lol. 
 
I took him and a few of his friends go-karting. They had fun, I cringed from the sidelines. The things boys love ey?

We then had a party/bbq to celebrate with family and friends. It Was so much fun. He had an awesome time. So much so that the next day he declared we would throw a party like it every year. I laughed. As for me, until he turns 16, I no do again o. No be small ting. Lol.

One of the funniest things was when we did the Pinata. It all started out as such a civilised event, but once that pinata was burst open it was a scramble. My brother and I initially tried to use our authoritative voices to call the children to order, after about 2 seconds of realising it wasn't going to happen, we jejelly moved ourselves out of harms way. I turned around only to find one of my friends on top of some of the kids joining in the scramble and grabbing as many sweets as she could. Smh. We couldn't believe it. It was such a funny sight.

The other highlight was when we played Dance Central on XBox. I was giving it large so my friend challenged me. She's a much better dancer than me. Thankfully, I beat her. Hahaha! Phew! Then Lil Man showed everyone what he gats! The room was silent. You see, my boy can come across as shy. He's a quiet and gentle person. But when he's doing something he loves, all that falls to the side. He danced his behind off. Everybody was just standing watching and saying, is that how he's going on? Lol. I just smiled.

We'll, that's all for now. Just thought I'd give a reason for my absence. Will try to get it together now and get back to blogging more regularly. 


Left to right, top to bottom: My son and I, his birthday cake (courtesy of my sister - aunty Debs), My sister Kemi, lil man in his go-karting gear, cup cakes, lil man drinking J2O, my sister Debs, and yours truly.

 Before I go, can I just have a little moan about the weather here in the UK? I just wanna say: rain rain go away, we've had enough, let the sun come out and play. Pretty please, with a cherry on top. I keep looking for Noah's arc. Lol.

Until next time.

Happy Fathers Day!

It's Fathers Day over here in the UK. First I want to elevate the Father of ALL fathers! I Baba God! The Big G HIMSELF -JEHOVAH! Then I want to wish the one through whom I came a happy Fathers Day! Popsi, I love you! Then my wonderful Pastors for teaching how to be more like Him (God). Pastor "Rams", you're the man!

I also want to wish all the fathers, that are present and accounted for and for leading the way. You are so very much appreciated. My pastor preached about fatherhood today and one profound thing he said was that "every father is a teacher or an instructor, but not every teacher or instructor is a father". A teacher instructs, but a father gives guidance. He gives of himself. I commend all the fathers out there giving of themselves. You are appreciated!

And finally, to all the men still to father one day. May you be a father that gives. An example and a leader.

HAPPY FATHERS DAY ONE AND ALL!!!
