Becky. This is awesome. It's so relatable because I'm also the first child and I'm born into a family of 5 kids. Having to play the role of a first child and shoulder the responsibility of being an older brother is something I got exposed to when I was still a kid.
Just like you, I found myself having to play the role of Mum & Dad to my siblings because both of my parents were working. So, even when we were in primary school, I used my free time to watch my siblings and be sure they are okay. Haha. I also had to make myself available to help them understand their academic assignments. Now that we've all outgrown that, the responsibility seems to have grown even bigger.
You are doing really well. It can't be easy to be in your shoes and the sacrifices you are making in order to give your daughter and family a good life will be rewarded by God's grace. Well Done.
Thanks a lot @kenechukwu97. Knowing that someone understands me is a big relief cos I used to feel like an alien.
A big amen to your prayers.
Have a lovely new week
