Chapter 1 | Holy Shit I'm a mom!
So I haven't posted anything in over two years. Do you know the amount of things that occur in that time?
I am a mother | Now you probably wondering why I haven't written some piece about my insane love for my baby. But the truth is I don't think I had fully comprehended what has happened to me until these past few weeks or let alone ....I never made time for anything else besides being a mom (well so I thought). I've had to prioritise you know!

| On her first birthday |
Meet Lil empress Ifunanya Kurhula Ekwegh, born on the 5th December 2011.
I remember hearing her cry as the Doc placed her near my face for this first time, I kissed her lips and a bit of fluid sneaked into my mouth (hahaha its kinda disgusting now that I think about it). Tears dropped down my cheek that even today I am unsure if it was tears of joy or sadness I had never been so overwhelmed by so many feelings at the same time!
She is my guiding light. The reason I am and will be. You know that saying that giving is receiving Well its true...by giving life I have been blessed with life, purpose, will, courage, unimaginable love, peace and understanding. I am sure other parents agree that the perspective one gains from being a parent is unlike any epiphany. I will be forever happy now...NO MATTER WHAT! And when I'm not happy, it wont take as long to jump back into life and be happier even more.
Thank you Ifu for choosing me. I will always have your back!
