Good old days, everything is just like yesterday, I could remember all what happened vividly many years ago as kids how me and my elder sister use to do like cat and rat in the hose. I should be doing the cat and rat thing with my elder brothers but no, I choose to being troublesome with a lady.
We're a family of seven my parent and my four other siblings, three boys, two girls and I'm the fourth born of the family.
There was a time that I fought with my sister, we started with words of mouth, then it escalate to physical fight, my mom was not around, if not she wouldn't have allowed us do those nonsense.
Trust African mothers, when my mom came back, before she even listened to my side of the story, I received a very hot slap for fighting my elder sister, because in our culture, it's a sign of disrespect.

After the explanation of the cause of our fight, I was still the one guilty, so I was calmly dealt with this time. My mom is someone that doesn't know how to beat, she beats anyhow, as the spirit gives her ability and inspiration hehehe.
After the beating and punishment, my mom called me in her room and talked some sense into me. Ever since then I've never been rude to my sister again, even when she did something that's offensive, all I do is to report her and then mom will know what to do.
After that incidence, we became best of friends instead of our former way, being cat and rat.
Till today we're still the closest even though I've brothers I should be more close with, reverse is the case, I choose to be more closer to my sister. We're far away from each other, yet we communicate every time.
My brothers and I are also close to some extent though, especially with the second born of the family, we became more close the time we saw some money on the ground one faithful day while going to school hehehe it's weird right? He did not give me my own share at once, he was giving me everyday as I'm going to school, he knew if he had given me at once, I might spend everything that day or within two days.
My brother made me know how to play PlayStation, he would take me along whenever he wants to go and play, that time it was only PlayStation one and two that was reigning then, winning eleven. That was when I know how to play it a little, if not for him I wouldn't know how to play at all, because after that time, I didn't play for a very long time.
It was after that time we now had PES AND FIFA, I only know how to play PES a little when I was in higher institution because I do escort my friends to game center, so I play once in a while.
Sometime ago, I use to be the last born of the family, not until my parent decides to give birth to another child hehehe, you know how last born use to enjoy, that was how I was enjoying my last born privilege, but one faithful day another girl was born into the family, I have no choice than to vacate that role for her. Well, I like her though because she grew up to be very brilliant and intelligent. Despite giving birth to another child, I was still having access to some privilege because my dad love me so much, I get whatever I need from him within a twinkle of an eye, except if he doesn't have that thing.

Now that our last born is fully grown, she's now in the university and she's always billing us her elder brothers and sisters. That's the part I don't like hehehe but anyways if we don't do it for her, who will, so I'm still happy we are able to help her when we have the privilege.
I'm also happy for how far we've come, right from childhood till now, the journey was rough at some point but we thank God, everything is making sense now and to the glory of God we're all happily married except for our last born of the house who's still in school.
Everyone is matured now unlike before that we fight like kids, even when we have misunderstandings now we settle it amicably and move on with life, I can't fight with my siblings again, I can only fight for them, because they are my world, my pride.

Our moms are the best😂😂😂.. they're some days you'll receive beating, and you'd start to wonder if you were adopted 😂😂
Swears, you get it 😂😂
God bless our mothers
Yeah😂
Amen!!
That's one thing I came to learn, as we keep growing, we found better ways of handling issues better without causing fights or much drama.
With more maturity, we will no longer be irritated by those little things we usually get annoyed at when we were younger.
Maturity has taken all those childish behaviors from us.
We now know better.
Your level lowered and you are now a Red Fish!

Mothers truly beat however the spirit inspires them. I know what it's like although I didn't receive much😂😂
It's good to know that your mum reset your brain when you fought with your elder sister. Else, you'd have challenged her far more than you did then.
I could not have fought with any one of my siblings because them for beat me well well. I'm glad I understood this early sha😅
Trust African mothers, they don't have time, they will use beating to set ones brain to factory settings 😃😃
The day I fought with my sister ehn, after she dealt with me, my mum also did her own too, double beating lol.
