My brother and myself
It so happens that as a kid I was a rebel and never really paid attention to what people thought of me, including my family. I was always at loggerheads with my sisters and they couldn't understand that I was just a troubled fellow, they completely wrote me off.
As a result, the only woman left in my life was my mother and funny how her love after many years and prayers made me see reason even on topics and things I don't fancy.
Some six years ago my Mum passed away and the gap between me and my sisters became larger. I however came around after realising that only my first nephew knew me by name and ever since, I've been paying them surprise visits.
three nephews
Two weeks ago, on a Monday morning, I got up with the longing to see my sisters cause I heard that two of them spent the night at my eldest' house, it'll be killing three birds with one stone.
So I and my brother payed them a visit but I wasn't too pleased with the scene that greeted me. My nephew was being punished by a squad of adults for telling a lie. Even a matured man would lie to save his head from an angry mob.
The funny thing was the same tricky attributes the young man exhibited was one my sister always displayed back when we were kids. Time somehow wipes the slate of our memory clean.
I told my sister and her husband that I would be taking him to my place to spend atleast a week and the dude quickly packed his bag...lol.
That's one thing Uncles are good for - bailing you out of trouble.
But before I left, I spent a little time with my Princess, my only Niece. Her name is Lydia and I love deeply the young woman she's becoming.
I also got to spend time with my youngest nephew Nehemiah, who happens to be partially French, his Dad's not from around here. The dude impresses me cause he speaks and understand French, my native language, my mom's native language and English and he's barely four.
I left my sister's place with my Nephew and took a quite shot on an abandoned road where vehicles don't trod.
My nephew spent the week at my place and it was really fun
Thanks for the visit friends
