Kids can drive one CRAZY....so whenever we mothers get time off from their stress,its like heaven!
Once i notice my boys are silent in the house,i begin to scream and ask them where they are,if i hear their voices downstairs,i jump off and run to them......jump off from experience oh.
That was how last year,there was total peace in the house,there was no fighting or arguing between them and i thought all was well...only for me to go and check up on them and one was in the bathroom shaving....he figured since there was no hair on his face,he should shave his head!
he had cut a third mainland bridge on his curly thick mass and i let out a loud scream and he almost fainted from shock.
If i begin to count how many 'silent is not golden' moments that has shocked me ennnnnnh......
Do you have a 'Silence is not golden moment?

Deletemoi cutie's still 5 months
Waiting to read funny comments from all d blessed mothers on dis blog. .
Deletetoo many...i just lock them up in the playpen now. Better they cry and be safe than silent and unsafe. Even last night i was disturbed by the silence only to smallie munching away on packaging for a new stool! That on can't even be left alone for a SECOND cos everything goes in his mouth. Phone chargers, jewellery and a peculiar deference for paper. Kids!!!
DeleteStella u just made my day with this ur narrative. Bwahahahahahahaha...
DeleteChildren are indeed blessings and head ace.
I normally tell me friends and neighbors that I want to sell my daughter, they will laugh and tell me am not serious but they don't understand sha.
The day laugh nearly killed was the day hubby was so pissed that he told her that he will throw down frm up thatcher wahala is too much. ... I just told him this is just the tip of ice berg Bcos when I complain to him at times he will be like she is just baby.
Nnem it's all joy and pain jare. Loolz.
I am neve comfortable when my house is quite with the kids around. God know how may times their silence has landed us in hospital or made me should, thank God for tablets silence is becoming less fearful.

Deletewhen BBQ10 first came out, my hubby was super careful not to allow d kids near it. well somehow d older one abt 4yrs got a hold of it, and it fell off his hand. bt he didnt want daddy to know his fone had fallen and gotten'dirty" so he took it to d bathroom sink and started washing it. Lord knws how long he was there bt we found him washing the phone.!
DeleteOMG. Fone washing. I dnt bliv dis hahahahaha. Chai kids no go kil person. Wen my kids are quiet dat means dey are sick n d funny tin is dey always fall sick d same time. Chai but d shout no b here. Is lik onitsha main market women. I bless God for givin dem to me.
Deletei will read comments
ReplyDeleteMotherhood rocks but it's not easy at all lol
DeleteMy 4yr old is a huge troublemaker in the house! So one day like that he slept very late in the day and woke up by 8pm. He refused sleeping again, so everyone went to sleep except the both of us!
I got tired so I forced him to sleep, he pretended as if he was sleeping. So as a guy woman I was happy as I tiptoed out of the room!
In the middle of the night by 2am my 2yr old son came into my room crying saying...mummy my eyes! I woke up to find him covered in relaxer from head and all over his face! I screamed ehn and the 4yr old came out of his hiding with relaxer all over his face and body too!
I didn't know what do to so I gave them thorough early morning cold bath as punishment! I later found out the eldest woke his brother up and took him to the parlour and started designing their body with relaxer kai! When they went to school the teachers were screaming asking why i permed their hair lol
The good thing that came out of that experience is that their hair was so fine and curly ehn. I just took them to barbershop to get a galaxy hair style! Now am extra extra careful with them!
Infact I'll be praying for d house to be quiet but d moment it becomes dead quiet, I scream to hear my boy's voice. Infact my son is so active that when he's quiet probably he's in d bathroom flooding everywhere with water or bringing his clothes and shoes out of his wardrobe.meanwhile he's less than 2yrs o. Mehn it's not easy to be a mum. Rara ko easy at all
DeleteHahaha @ Blog Legend's story...children!
DeleteHahahahaha omg oo
DeleteBlog Legend ur kids are mischievous oo chai. Can't stop laughing kikikiki
Blog Legend, you gave them a cold shower!!! Whaoooo, are they your kids or step???
DeleteHehe Miss Prada yes they're my children not steps inugo
DeleteAnd I couldn't beat them cos it was too early which is why I punished them that way! I'm sorry if u don't approve madam lol
This is going to be a funny post 2hen i saw it ib the laugh section I just smiled .
ReplyDeleteHmmmmmmn the memories are sweet and bad from my first child to the third, but God is awesome after mothers shout and yell we still cuddle them. My second son will go to d kitchen and turn everything together and he will come back to meet me as if nothing happens, he will be very calm and quiet iam always suspicious I will now be looking around to know what he has done again. They are a very special gift from God.
DeleteI have soooo many, one of them my usually restless boy was very quiet only for me to look for him, he had body cream all over him, including his mouth and nose. When I screamed he said ' I love you Mummy', I was weak
ReplyDeleteHahaha, I can just imagine ur reaction. U were weak to do anything
DeleteBuahahahhhahha
DeleteAwww....
My experience was similar. Look below @ my comment
Awwww thats sooo cute
DeleteI cant wait to start having kids
Children can be a handful though
Bt I stil want mine
liar
DeleteAwwww. He was scared mummy would spank him. He knows the way to your heart
DeleteMy daughter does almost the same thing. She is 2 and whenever I don't hear her voice I am running to look for. The last time I didn't hear her voice I went to look for her only to see she used my Colgate paste to plaster the bedroom carpet. And what did she say when I saw her "love you mummy".
Deletelop.
Deletesharp boy.
mne was gel. my 17 mnths old baaby girl,laced her whole body wt gel. every where was quiet and i knew immediately dt something was wrong. only to go her room and see her rubbing black gel al over her head,face and cloths
Hahaha
DeleteKids are just so lovely
Infact my son does this too. Cream everywhere that I'll start smelling his mouth to be sure he didn't put it in.
Deletemine is robb...on his head, arms everywhere
DeleteMy four year old boy was quite for about 30 minutes only for him to rush out and said ' mummy my car and my toys are clean ' I looked into his room to find his cream and lotion on all his toys and the floor when i asked what have you done he replied mummy am a good boy i bathed my toys
DeleteHilarious!
DeleteHahahahaha. Stella I relate with u o. That was how my aunt left her kids with me so she can rush to the market. For almost 5minutes I no hear noise. I was happy o. One mind just said I should go and find them. Lo and behold, one was in d kitchen drinking kerosene. My scream made d last one come out of the toilet. Ha! Stella, he was dipping his hand in the toilet. I had to smell his whole body to find out. My aunt nearly killed me that day
ReplyDeleteHahaha sorry oh, this post go sweet today
DeleteJesus!
DeleteLol
DeleteHahaha
DeleteThank God kerosene is not as harmful as sniper
Ewwwwwww @ dipping his hands in the toilet
Lmao
DeleteHahahhahahahahah
DeleteThis is too funny
Buahhhahahaahahah
ReplyDeleteI have plenty moments oh,
But lemme share just 2
That was how my 4year old was so quiet while I was busy dimokokoing ( sdkb) away...
And then I felt everywher was damn quiet. My older child was glued to the teevee watching cartoon but wwhere is the second.
I ran through the rooms looking for her then I found her...
All covered in methylated rob. She looked so greased and was battling to open her eyes.
She looked a jelly baby. I freaked out but burst into laughter before cleaning her up. She slept for 3 straight hours afterwards.
Lmao.
Another incident
The quiet was unsusal.
So I tiptoed and found her wearing my bra. And looking at herself at the mirror saying..." i have breast like mummy"
Lol
DeleteLmao such a cute girl
DeleteBuahahaha!
DeleteMine are numerous but I will read others.
I don laugh tire, so tey tears dey roll for my face.
DeleteThank God the rob didn't get into her eyes oh
DeleteHahahaha poor Jelly Baby.
DeleteBwahahahahahahaha...
DeleteChildren oooo
Hahahahaha, Poor jelly /bra baby
DeletePlenty! Wit my 2 year old! Is it my make up purse or him going to d store to mix garri wit Wat Eva he sees. D father says he's equal to 3 children. Lol, now dat am expecting d sista I strongly believe I will b a referee soon
ReplyDeleteLmao!! Mrs Kork e plenty ooo, don't know where to start from sef, my boys are hyper active, always up to one mischief or the other Gosh!!
Deletemake I book space will come back to comment. I won sleep small, my mother in law is around to watch them.
Referee, every mother's automatic job description.
DeleteMy friend's son is barely a year. His silence is definitely not golden. One day we were gisting and we didnt hear him for a bout 4 minutes. by the time we realised it could be trouble, we sprang up looking for him. Guess where he was? Toilet!!!! playing with the water in the toilet with both hands!!! I almost fainted. Thank God the toilet was flushed, he had a serious dettol bath that day.
ReplyDeleteI think that toilet water thing is natural with children, my own can like to drink it, so I have to always have the toilet locked
DeleteThat's my 17 month old baby. She loves that toilet bowl. We lock everything but small chance she gets she ends up using her hands to imitate brushing and then will try to use hand towel for the floor. Lmao.
DeleteMy cute niece would do exactly what the baby in the pix is doing. Whenvere quiet, biko go and check ur hand bag. She likes bags a lot. Check ur purse and scattered money and pasport etc. If care is not taken, You might leave house stranded
ReplyDeleteThese days,i don't need silence!!
DeleteMy lil girl toddled off,dunno how she reached her sudocream..opened it and painted the entire area white!!!
I was stretching feeling like I had few minutes of peace to myself.... only for me to realise this "peace"l was too good to be true,looked around and the mischievous girl was busy painting herself and the floor....
The rest was history!!
Ah, sudocream! That shit don't come off easily.
DeleteHahaha, I don't have kids yet but my nephews re something else, when am with them n I don't hear their voice I scream oh, to Mk sure they re OK, I don't like letting them out of my sight for fear of what they might do.

She cried for hours because we couldn't really clean all the balm away neither could we use water but guess what she didn't learn. They keep repeating the same thing. Now I just lock the door to my room. My niece has drank kerosene, Klin, spirit, toilet water and eaten poop.

Over to the mothers
ReplyDeleteI'm a new mom so silence is platinum for me. Infact I'm commenting while trying to hide the light from my phone before my oga at the top awakens.
ReplyDeleteI can relate to this post though due to a wide age gap with my kid bro. When we were much younger my mom came home one evening feeling stressed and sent us to go buy a bottle of chilled Gulder (wonder if they still make that beer?). Anyway she kept it in her room and sorted us out (as per dinner, house chores etc) . After a while she noticed my bro was missing cos we were all downstairs. On climbing up to the master bedroom she saw him sprawled on her bed in a deep sleep. She tried waking him up to go to his room(we liked chilling in their room because of the AC so she didn't think much of it) My bro refused to wake up. That's when she noticed the bottle of Gulder was almost empty. Anyway she helped cure his hangover the next day with her koboko.
Lol...
DeleteDis is so funny..!!!
Hahahahahahahah
Lmao!
DeleteHnmn... when dey come for u....
DeleteHahahahahahaha!!!! Cnt stop laughing

DeleteMy nephew did dat when he was younger. He climbed a chair and helped himself to d bottle of ogogoro on the fridge. Meeen l tire that day

ReplyDeleteMy sister slience is not golden in my house, late last year I sent Them to their room to watch TV while i tried to get some shut-eye, after about thirty mins I was surprised that my last child had not come to my room to harass me out of bed as is her nature,so I went out to check....
ReplyDeleteI went to their room she wasn't there then I went to the parlour and almost fainted, she had turned on the tap in the sink at the dinning and my whole parlour was FLOODED. I stood for five secs in shock before I could get round to switching the tap off. Needless to say I spent almost one hour mopping, so much for the rest I desperately needed ....Infact I have so many examples, how about the day.... I will be back
Lol
DeleteChilling and waiting for the comments

DeleteBuhahahahahahaha@i am thinking
DeleteMy not so first experience was when my two girls became too quiet for comfort, I felt this was too unusual, went to check on them and OMG, I was shocked beyond words. I beat them till I was red in the face, and I started the questioning, followed by the lecture of why what they did was wrong. They didn't understand what they were doing but thot lieing on top of each other was ok. Whenever there is unusual quietness ,my own race passes usain bolt.
ReplyDeleteI think they have seen you and hubby or on TV

ReplyDeleteChoi...children oooo!
DeleteO boyyyy!
DeleteThis post definitely brings back memories of my childhood, one time mum left us to to go and fix food i went to the store and ate soda soap cuz i used to wonder what twas like. The koboko that followed me tht day was hell. I also remember how my uncle came visiting and used to hide and smoke at the backyard, one day i was so amused as to how cigarette tasts so i locked me and my kid sister inside the room and tried my luck at smoking, unfortunately for us i used toilet roll to roll and my sister's mouth was the tool cuz i needed her to hold the rolled up tissues in her mouth while i strike the match. Needless to say the tissue melted and burnt her lips, my mother almost killed me that day
ReplyDeleteLooooool

ReplyDeleteThis child is all shades of wahala.evn when i spank her,she just looks up at me and smiles.i'm always yelling whenever shes around.she likes my makeup purse,she likes a particular cabinet in the kitchen,she would pack all the onions,plantains,potatoes and evn yam from the kitchen floor to any part of d house.
And she'll be so busy and even sweating doin it o like its govt work.i dont let her out of my sight for more than 10secs if i'm alone with her sha
Lol@ government work
DeleteMy friend told me how his daughter brought his phone proudly to him saying "daddy I washed your phone" expensive phone o!
In fact the guy provoke to the point of banning party pack for school for upcoming birthday (see begging even me follow join beg)
Kids are wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI have a 19 month old daughter who has the personality of a 40 year old. She loves to dance regardless of who is around. I was watching tv yesterday trying to unwind after a busy day, and I let let go out on the porch with her 8 year old cousin. Everything was just fine for a while then I heard people cheering outside, I didn't think much of it but after a few min I decided to see what it was. Low and behold my daughter was on the side walk dancing her heart out with our neighbors cheering her on. I was speechless I couldn't even tell her my husband about it cause you know how they are with their daughters
ReplyDeleteHahahahahaha same with my little nephew o, that's the neq one he's learned, dancing every second. So cute...
DeleteHmmmmm.....chai my ola-chi ehn....
ReplyDeleteIf I begin type this blog no go contain jare!
Happy new week Aunty Stella of life, hope you're all recovered now.
ReplyDeleteOn the topic, I don't have my own kids yet but I am around children all the time. My nephews and nieces and my friends' babies, I always babysit thus I've experienced most things parents do.
Kids are amazing but sometimes ehhn...........there was this day I was with my toddler nephew. At some point I had to go into the room to get something from my purse. when I had gotten what I sought, I left the bag on the bed and made sure little mister followed me out because he tagged along. I was engrossed with an assignment but after a while I realized that he was not there anymore because he asks me questions intermittently. I called out to him and his baby voice answered me from the room. I went to him and what did I behold? My reading glasses that cost me 67k to acquire was dangling from his baby fingers. He said " aunt Dawn, it broke and I wanted to fix it". He had taken the case out of my bag, broken it and was trying to fix it. If it was an adult, I would have done the person some kin things but I love this baby to bits. I cried a bit and he started to cry too so I just carried him and gave him a kiss and told him it was okay and I would fix it myself.
I've got other stories too but na dis wan pain me pass.
Dawn
Awwwww @ he started crying too..you've got a beautiful heart.
DeleteAwwwww
DeleteHahahhhahahahah. Wen I don't hear any noise it scares me. My left my 2 boys to watch cartoon and went to relax in my room. Thinking the younger one who is 2 years old will come and report. Hahhhah he is the repoerter we have at hime even when he is the one that started the fight. Sometin just told me to check d guest room, I got up immediately lo and behold my younger son took powder robbed it frm his head to his toe and more than one third of the rug had powder on it. I screamed and he laughed. What could I do now....... I caught him trying to plug his finger in the socket another time. Thank God there was no light and his elder brother of 4 was assiting him. God help us with these children. They are a handful.
ReplyDeleteSilence is not golden,I went to the room with my 18months old boy and later left for kitchen,i noticed about 10 mins later that he didn't follow me back to the kitchen,i ran to the room only for me to see he had poured a whole bottle of mist mag on the bed I shouted his name n he came out of the toilet with toilet brush in his hands and water was dripping,o almost cried

ReplyDeleteI remember when my sister was about a year old or so and she was left in the room, only for us to come back and find her in the midst of her poo, playing with it like a doll. It took a while to wash off the poo which was all over her body. Silence isn't golden.

WHENEVER THE HOUSE IS QUIET I HAVE TO START SCREAMING MY SONS NAME...ATIMES HE WILL NOT ANSWER...IMAGINE GULPING DOWN MORE THAN 20TABLETS OF DRUGS..THANK GOD IT WAS CALCIUM..HUBBY ALMOST FINISHED ME THAT DAY..SEE US RUSHING TO THE HOSPITAL OR APPLYING HIS MENTHOLATED ROBB ALL OVER HIS BODY...HIDING INSIDE THE TOILET!
ReplyDeleteAnytime there's silence I always shout* victor what are you doing * if there's more silence I'll know alls not well when I look it's always disaster . Chai.
ReplyDeleteOn one of those silent days, my 2 year old son took my lipstick and attempted to use on his lips, of he ended up painting the whole area around his mouth. I was in the room the whole time but by the time I turned to check what he was up to the harm had been done. My friends says to keep the picture and use it to collect bribe when he is all grown.
ReplyDeleteOh my days! I have laughed so much this morning. Silence golden ke? WHOSAI! My 2 daughters, then, age 4 and 3 were in the room, while I was in the kitchen.cooking with my son on my back. I then realized the girls were awfully quiet, than usual. So I went into the room.
ReplyDeleteSHIOR!!! Wetin I see! The eldest was putting the comb inside the nose of her sister. I shouted and grabbed the comb. That was when I saw what she was using it for; To remove a hair bead embedded inside her nose!!! The bead has gone deep as she tried to remove it. I also tried, but to all avail. Immediately, I rushed her to the hospital, called my hubby. We were at the hospital from 5:30pm to 9 pm! The doctors had to inject her to sleep, because she was struggling with them whenever they tried to remove it. The doctors told us that if it gets worst, she will be operated and it will be at LUTH!! It took a long while for the drug to take effect, in fact the doctor had to give her more than the expected dosage for her age because she still dey shine her eyes well!! Eventually, it was removed stained with blood. They charged us ehen!! She slept over 24 hours straight! And could barely stand on her feet,, she didn't go to school for 2 days! I threw out all the orishirishi fancy hair beads in my home. How did she get hold of that single bead? From her sister hair o! Ahahaha... She will soon be 12 by May, and sometimes I remind her what she put us through.
Nitty.
ROTFL. My youngest just turned 5. This was her specialty. Shoving stuff up her nose especially those hair beads. Could never understand what that was all about
DeleteBaahahahahahahahahhahahaha,u ehen,its so real the way u sound......God na ehin dey look after our children
ReplyDeleteMy baby has this habit of singing "praising the lord" every time she has done something mischievous and the worst part she will come out clapping and singing that song. One of this days my bestie visited and that's how I got carried away with gist, everywhere became quiet and the next thing I started looking for Dubem. We looked everywhere only to find her in the store and she had managed to open a box with 30caprisonnes on it, drank about 20 of them and disposed the packets in different locations and rooms upstairs so I won't find them. I caught her drinking one and I shouted "Dubem!" The next thing she runs out singing "praising the lord" and that's when I knee kasala don burst...We spent the next 45mins fishing out different caprisonne packets from her disposal site and the next 3 days treating her for a runny stomach. Shes 6 now and has twin brothers and she has never drank another packet of caprisonne afterwards
ReplyDeleteLmao @ praising the lord
Deletebuhahahahahahaha..my God
DeleteOMG!!! I laughed my heart out....c me crying from too much laughter
DeleteLol, so many oh
ReplyDeleteMy niece and water are best of friends...if she's not dipping her hands,she's rolling in them, or pouring it on her head etc
ReplyDeleteSince we already know this, we lock the main switch that allows water flow through the tap in all the places she can reach easily.
This day,we couldn't find her and seeing that access to water had been blocked in other bathrooms,she wasn't there.No one thought to check her in the guest toilet. When we eventually did,this girl had both legs deep in the water closest,splashing the water all over her body,infact im sure she must have drank some.Practically feeling like someone in a bath tub.
Her mum wanted to faint..she just weak!!
She probably figured that was d only place she could get water and ooh boy, did she have a field day before we found her.
Kids ehn.....
Ohhhh uncountable of them...just yesterday we where all chilling after lunch, thought my little girl had gone to bed. Suddenly she came to me and said 'mummy I'm cooking matoes (tomatoes) it suddenly occurred to me. Low and behold she had taking fresh tomatoes out of the fridge and dumped it my pot of stew then carried a stool in other to stair it well :(
ReplyDeleteLmaoooo 😂
DeleteSilence is definitely not golden anymore o 4 me ever since my son started crawling and walking. I av so many moments, was it when he dipped his hands in toilet or when he poured a whole sachet of water on the floor, when he was fighting with the detergent plastic or when he scooping custard powder on his head. Too many moments.
ReplyDeleteSilence is golden only when he's asleep as he's right now.
Mothers are the best.

ReplyDeleteMy older child has experiment his barbing skill on his younger brother one day, he plugged the clipper by himself that one really surprised me cus I don't know he can operate it at that age he helped his brother to do narrow escape, the funniest was I was picking hair from the floor but I never thought of where it came from until when I wanted to bath for his brother that I noticed.
ReplyDeleteHahahahahaha...... This experience here reach for Saturday and Sunday laughs
ReplyDeleteI swear!!!!! I've been laughing and crying.

I bought my boy this water gun, and on a Saturday I was washing clothes , I left him alone at the siting room playing wit toys, he came and asked me to put water on his water gun, I did not knowniing this boy went straight to the TV in the sitting room and started shoting his water gun on it. my sister ,my boy spoilt the 55inches TV, till date I never fit repair am. And I was so happy he was playing without noise ooh. Kids are something else.
ReplyDeleteAyahhh kpele dear
DeleteHmmm anyway I commented about dis silence is golden yesterday. About my beautiful homeboy emptying a just open can of milk lol...half on the rug the other half truth brush was inside as if he was brushing the toilet.
ReplyDeleteAbi was it the time he plug half of my charger and he was grabbing the other naked part? Hmmm abi was it when he plug the door key in an extension? Abi the one I found all the baby powder on the floor,the bed and he was eating some?lol...
When my boy is awake and everything is quiet for 1 minute and he's not by my side,well let's just say am enjoying my golden silence at my own risk.
Ehn... House help from hell!!!!
ReplyDeleteLMAO @ third mainland bridge.... Children are Ehn? OK.... Recently, my dad was hospitalized, mum was with him permanently and they left the car for me o do the running around (house hospital-pharmacy), I had taken breakfast to mum in d morning as dad was on life-support and couldn't eat. Then, mum asked me to go home and rest since stress was written all over me. She gave me 500naira to buy fuel for the evening trip. I got home and went to sleep. The kids were playing outside (my daughter and niece) all of a sudden, I heard 'psssssssssss' . I was wondering where the sound came from, my neighbour was going out, and I heard him shout 'mummy ****** awon omo yii ma ti Jo gbogbo tyre motor o' (these kids have deflated all the tyres o). I just jumped up, as I got out, the car tyres were flat! Left with one! OMG! I WAS MADDDD! I have never beaten them, but that day, I beat! My daughter was rolling on the floor. I felt for them later but then, I didn't have any extra cash except the 500 for fuel, I had to get to the junction and plead with the vulcanizer to do it on credit. Before I came back, they had slept! I'm sure they would not forget in a hurry! I still love them though!
ReplyDeleteThis is the best post ever. Mothers are rare gems. I'm a mom-to-be and I pray God sees me through with a safe delivery. Stella, I love your blog because it relates to real life issues. God bless you Stella and I pray I ' ll be telling my own story soon in subsequent series....
ReplyDeleteI was on a 13 hour long international flight with my 2yr old daughter. After hours of entertaining her, eating, fussing, she finally settled in and took a nap. Being exhausted myself, I breathed a sigh of relief and napped off. Somewhere between dreamland and reality, I perceived a pungent odor. So I. Woke up and there was my daughter, stooped on the floor, doing number 2 right by my Chinese neighbor's bag.
ReplyDeleteSo much for sleep on that long flight.
Mothers are blessings and children are bigger blessings. I've laughed all through, how I wish the comments are in thousands, it's really an interesting read. God bless all mothers and all soon-to-be moms. May God also bless all those believing Him for the fruit of the womb, you all shall carry your seed in Jesus name and we the pregnant ones, may God see us through this journey and grant us safe delivery in the end.(Omo Belle no easy oh, the nausea is killing, thank God for DH, he has been understanding) God bless you Stella. I love your blog so much tho I rarely comment....lol
ReplyDeleteHummm. Mine was when my 2 years old soon bathe himself with a whole bottle of dispenser water right on the rug. I was shocked and mopped for the next 2hrs. We thank God for our little ones.
ReplyDeleteCrawling not creeping..thank me later
ReplyDeletewww.glowyshoe.blogspot.com
OK, I'll chip in mine and yes I did it..
ReplyDeleteI was about 7 or 8years old I can't remember exactly, everyone was in the sitting room talking about child birth and babies.. I love babies a lot... So much that as my parents where discussing I was imagining having one for myself and immediately I noticed razor blade around, I picked it up and started tearing my tommy, it wasn't funny o
I thought if you open your tommy a baby will spring out, thank God my mom saw me and screamed! My eyes where just shinning..lmao
I was rushed to the hospital and till today whenever I see that big mark on my body I shake my head cause right now I can't even watch where someone is being cut or injected and I wonder how I did it to myself when I was little.
Haha thank goodness u are fine.
DeleteSome experiences can be frightening. When my son started crawling, I was super busy. We were home alone this faithful day and when I realized he had left the bedroom I ran around the house looking for him. I couldn't find him in any of the rooms, toilets or kitchen. With the front door locked he couldn't have gone outside so I didn't bother, I went round the whole house the second time and still no sign of him, by this time I was already crying. I decided to go out thru the kitchen door and alert my neighbour and the holy spirit drew my attention to the vegetable compartment plastic of my refrigerator on the floor , I jumped and opened the fridge and there he was sitting inside. I just thank God there wasn't light and he had not run short of oxygen.
ReplyDeletehmmmmm Stella my daughter is only a year and a half and she is already so mischievous. Sometimes when am cooking and the whole place is quiet, I have to turn around very fast to see what she is doing and I always catch her doing some sort of mischief. Its either she would have dashed off to the bathroom to tear the toilet rolls into pieces or she she would have opened the lowest drawer to have access to my very important documents. Sometimes I would be very lucky to meet her holding some of these papers because other times, she would have torn some into pieces. She keeps calling her father at work with my phone when am busy and say nothing on the phone, thereby making her dad think that I have been calling to make fun of him. Her dad can call me up to about 6 times inquiring if I called him. I dont keep anything on the floor because as soon as I do so, its party day for her. She will find ways and means to create such a mess that will be to much work for me. And she does all these when am very busy and not looking. That is how the last time I opened a bag of rice, the only thing sitting on the floor within her reach, to fetch some cups of rice and forgot to cover it. I was so engulfed in my cooking that I even forgot to check on her only for me to turn around about 10 minutes later to see about 5 cups of rice on the floor. Omg in fact that one got me pissed that I started screaming on top of my voice and she started crying because she was scared. So the things some of these children can do when they are quiet eh, only God can intervene on time.
ReplyDeleteAfter the day's stress, j made myself pounded yam to eat with the last egusi soup I had in the freezer. I was about to start eating when I remembered I had not taken my medication . I went to take it from the room. On arrival to the dinning table, I saw tha my toddler had emptied a cup of water in the soup. I cried no be small.
ReplyDeleteKai!!!!!!! So sorry
DeleteChei
DeleteWith my 2 yr old silence is never golden, his fave is the toilet either he dips his hand in it or empties a whole roll of toilet paper, the other day i saw him brushing his hair with ....yup you guessed right the toilet brush eeewww ! God is their immunity lol. I totally freaked out when i saw him rubbing something black on the floor with all seriousness hian it was his dads wristwatch let me just say na bottom cupboard drink garri after watch and he was shouting "clean clock"
ReplyDeleteTill tomorrow I call my younger sister shayo...when we were little, she fought with my younger brother n my dad took sides with him being the last n all. My sister got upset, went to dad's room
ReplyDeleteN downed more than half a bottle of 501 whisky, she now went to sleep in a heap of clothes in their room. For some reason dad decided to look for her n couldn't find her, we searched the whole house, compound n neighbourhood. When we finally found her she was seeing ghosts n talking gibberish, we just lost our uncle then n she kept saying he was calling her to come join him. My papa thought his daughter was possessed n went to call wholi n pastor living down the street, when their prayer no cast out d spirit of my dead uncle, my dad took her to the hospital. The Dr took one look at her, smelt her breath n said this child is drunk...lol, the following day she received the beating of her life.
Silence is NOT golden, not when you have young kids.
ReplyDeleteI have a young toddler, and I miss when she couldnt walk LOL I miss being able to sleep in when I want or take my own naps when I want. I miss not being scared every time we are in the bathroom, so I run and cover toilet, in case my phone ends up there.
My last glasses was bent by her (sotey they would fall off every time I put them on), and I just got new ones and got insurance on them.
I miss not having to hide to remove things from the drawers so she doesnt know its there.
My little sister poured water on TV, burned the curtain, crossed road at a young age and so much craziness. We were taught NEVER EVER leave her alone.
The responsibility of raising a child no get part 2 o.
Oh I wish there's more. God bless parents.
ReplyDeleteI can't stop laughing... I remembered when we were kids and my younger brother used to suck at his thumb, so a neighbor suggested that my mum should rub pepper on the thumb while he was sleeping, so that if he tries to suck it again the pepperish taste will discourage him from sucking his thumb again. My mum ignored her but me being a 'caring' sister did just that, but unfortunately for me, the first thing he did when he woke up was not to suck his this thumb but to rub his eyes... his scream woke everybody and came and saw me holding the container of pepper and still standing over him... see beating of a lifetime.
ReplyDeleteAnother occasion, we travelled to the village, and there was no light to iron our clothes, so I prepare the local coal iron, after prepping it so that it was hot and ready, I left it to go and get the clothes, then my youngest brother seeing a comfortable seat, came and sat down on the iron... see screaming and commotion, thank God for local herbs, the burns healed without scars...
