IT's A WRAP GUYS! ( HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL!)

She woke us all up with her continous movements in and around the house, in the early hours of the morning. I had looked forward to that day and i had plans for my self. It was my birthday no doubt, but i had no plans of waking up from my beauty sleep so early in the morning as a result of some rubbish noise nwuye was making. Eventually, i had to get out bed because tried as i could, i just could not keep my eyes closed with all her gra gra(i felt like punching her in the face).

Nwunye woke up as early as 3am, put on her favourite spaghetti strap and leggings she bought at her favourite okriks boutique at tej market her excuse being, pregnancy had no permanent dress. She had on a pair of big earings, big enough for a canary to play jangilover in.her ibo lo shey (ibo made said in yoruba but pronounced in italian) designer sandals were cleaned in a hurry and as such, still had traces of dust here and there. I scanned her with a frown on my face before asking her where she was headed and if the witches convention started so early in the year that she had to wake us all up.

"Abeg leave me" she said. Where you dey go na wey u no go let us hear word and by the way, you no even wish me happy birthday sef. Na so them send you?(Rme). Oh i almost forgot and im sorry she said, with a hug to show her genuine repentance. That still does not answer my question madam! I want to quickly get to my doctor's at ikoyi, i think my baby is in distress she said. With eyes wide open, i wondered what she was talking about and i quickly had to call mum. Hmm distress kwa no be only! I think you are in labour. It wasn't long before i discovered that arguing with Nwunye was a bloody waste of my precious time not after her display of madness a few days before. I saw a side of her she so carefully concealed until she said "i do"

I made up my mind, not to argue with her, but to accompany her to the bus_stop and just play "yes boss" to my madam" all i had on was a sheer short red night gown and a wrapper on my waist and mum wore an old boubou she bought at ivory coast. We had not stood for ten minutes before our madam Nwunye experienced her first cramp. Nwunye had began seeing double and before we knew it, she was bending on the streets to pee. My leggings wearing madam wants to piss on the road. Wonderful! Mum made me give her my wrapper and made me carry this 20ton woman to the nearest clinic, leaving me and my short dress at the mercy of the early morning harmatan cold.

It was not a very long walk as we got to the clinic in good time for her to pee. Lo and behold, a bloody show. She was admitted immediately and in less than two hours, i watched for the first time in my life, a woman give life to another soul. My nephew, the best birthday gift anyone could ever ask for. I filmed it all. His grand entrance, his first cry, his first poop, bath etc. I couldn't be happier. I ran from the clinic to the house, no fewer than a hundred times if i am not exaggerating. I was so excited and confused at the same time. For once, i forgot all about Nwunye's madness and just embraced the beauty of reproduction. My first God son. He was so little and fragile looking yet beautiful. Behold! Subsideen(lol)

This year has been a very eventful year for me. I loved, lied, cried, kissed a couple of frogs, hammered*winks dont ask me how or if i am speaking the truth about hammering oh! With all i have been through this year,i will say that nothing tops my gmy experience of witnessing the birth of my birthday gift. Mind sharing your best experience of the year on this space? Please feel free to tell us all.

Lest i forget, i met a couple of wonderful people too and i am thankful to God almighty for bringing them my way. For those i may have offended, i apologise and those who offended me, i forgive you too. To my haters, see you all on the other side of 2013 and i wish you all loose your front teeth so when you smile, folks know y'all are evil(lol) just teasing.

Here is wishing us all a blissful 2013 filled with wonderful endings and fulfilled dreams. Kisses****
Ps I like Charles' baby and Kathy's baby too.
