The Joys of Sisterhood and Motherhood...
Sisterhood is one experience I thank God for all the time...it's simply the best experience one could have growing up. My life as a little girl was wonderful because I had five amazing girls to share it with. Oh, how I remember when we all eat in a tray and mark territories inside the tray; when we would exchange meat for the other persons egg or fish; how we would create amazing but foolish games and feel so happy about it; or the times when we take turns to wash the dishes that heaped like mountains; when we'll sing together under the trees at night with our beautiful voices (minus Eva, she sounds like a male frog when she sings); playing under the rain (yes oh...I'm not ashamed); acting storyless dramas that'll always end in a fight; when you borrow and share dresses and shoes...Oh! I miss some of these moments
Not forgetting my little brothers, they are my everything. Sisterhood extends to them too. Whenever I see them, my heart is filled with joy and happiness, we have pillars amongst us. Life wouldn't be the same without them. Growing up with them was real fun. I am incomplete without my little brothers. God being so kind, added another one to the entourage last year...so I have two + one brothers. And I've lived with two of them for a whole year now. I'm so proud of them...
Being both a sister and playing the mother role hasn't been funny, sometimes I honestly want a break. But right now, I miss being both, not just a sister. Having someone looking up to you brings some kind of pressure, but it is a blessing. I've learnt a lot from this short experience; the art of sacrifice, carefulness in my dealings, equality in everything, pretending to be hard and even making hard decisions...I am grateful to God for this wonderful experience and now I understand a bit about parenting and why our parents take certain decisions...this experience has only increased my desire to become a mother to so many kids (I want plenty children ooo). I so much love these boys with my soul and I pray that I continue evolving and be better for us all.
The Joys of Sisterhood and Motherhood cannot be compared to anything on earth. I'm thankful to have had a little of this experience...
