Hive-reachout/ inleo initiative 20. Sweet childhood memories
Children are special to us and I see them as gifts from above. Not having enough memories of them is not a good one. What this means is that we need to try by all means to keep for the next generation what they will use to remember us when we are gone. Not just that even for us when we are grown up. We need something that will remind us of how we look back then so that we can appreciate our growth.
This is my daughter's image.
I started like this because I felt cheated when I grew up and discovered that no one cared to keep a picture of me when I was a little girl. Ahhhhh! It hurts me so much because I can't even imagine what I looked like back then. Now I wish that I can turn the hands of clock backwards to take a picture of myself and then return to the present. Hahahaha 🤣. Is that even possible? But seriously guys if I can do it I will be very happy. So that at least once in a while I can look at my picture and remember what I looked like when I was a kid. While hence that is not possible now, let me share with the house my little memory of myself when I was a child.
A troublesome child:
Hahahaha 🤣. Please 🙏 if you are reading this now don't laugh too much because even me I don't know why I was so troublesome back then. Before I came onboard all my siblings were too quiet and don't want trouble at all. So, I guess that God wanted to compassate my mother with one that was so troublesome that will scare people away from coming to the house to make trouble. My elder sisters don't really want any trouble, so they can just let anyone go away with any nonsense. But when I came onboard everything changed for good. Hahaha 😂 you know what that means right?
Guys do you believe that for every family there must be that one child that is different from others. Always standing to defend the rest? That one person for my family is me. 😂 I no dey hear. If you come looking for trouble I will give you double portion. Hahaha 😂. In fact, for one of my elder sisters, she was always happy that I am that troublesome. She loves carrying me around because I will not take any nonsense from anyone.
It got to the extent that anywhere I go to play I must come back home with a name that was given to me because I will be engaged with other kids fighting. Before I left the village for Jos in plateau state in the year 1982, I already had a name that up to today people call me by that. Each time I travel home and people see me they always refer back to that name and I will just laugh because I know what they are all saying. Look at me today. So grown up and just laughing whenever I remember my childhood days and the memories that comes with it.

I can totally see the little troublemaker in her eyes. 😂 Reminds me of my own childhood antics too. Sometimes when my mother reminds me of those troubles I gave her when I was younger, I just smiled and shy with them.. Children are great gift indeed.
God bless you Abundantly 🙏
Thanks 🙏
