Love of a big sister knows no bound



It was a long weekend for some Florida residents especially those closer to the eye of the storm, to some this might be a once in a life time adventure getting to experience what a category 4/5 hurricane feels like, but to some it is not something they would want to ever experience. For others, it was anxiety driven but for us, it was mixed, regardless we had a chunk of fun, stayed at home all day for updates, off school, off work and enjoyed the curfew; restriction of movements while it all lasted.  Apparently, it was an opportunity for us to catch up with all the house chores we neglected but still we got to relax. We were hopeful while the short storm raged, we hoped for the best because we prepared for the worst, but it never came, and changed course that spared us all. Then our hope for the best paid off in the end.

Sibling and a Playmate for life
 Then excitingly, after all the fun and mixed feelings, there comes a resounding moment of a greater joy just a day after. Of course there is no better way to wrap up the phenomenal weekend of hurricane Matthew better than the arrival of another beautiful amazon; NEFESOCHI CHIDERA into the Nonyelum's dynasty just a day after the storm.

She patiently waited till it is all raged and cleared, then she gently showed up boom!! on Sunday 10/09/2016 at 11am. She weighed 7.13 pounds and 20.14 cm in height. 





We could not have been more excited , but her big-sister Adachijokx seems more excited than we are.We saw the startling, the unspeakable joy, a unique form of love, compassion so natural all flowing through as she held her little sister with cheek full of smiles. It is true that the love of a big sister knows no bounds. The connection between both was so unique, a true reflection of Emily thorne's words; that the moment we are born, we are drawn to form a unique union. An abiding drive to connect, to love, and to belong. 

We could not have been more proud, it has always been grace from above; Na God win and we are proud of the unmerited favors that knows no bounds.

 Thinking out loud in words for Adachijokx. 10/10/16

THE PRICE OF OBEDIENCE

Despite being a mere recreational shepherd, he became the greatest warrior of all time from his first battle!  Despite being the least in his family, he was appointed and exalted above others by the Almighty God I serve! Despite the existence of a crowned king, he was anointed and crowned a King in the presence of another living King!  Despite his iniquities, the scripture I strongly believed in, referred to him as "the Man after God's heart"! Despite his shortcomings, his offspring became the wealthiest man; mentally and materially that has ever lived!  Despite all, Christ the Savior, The indomitable Champion! The Star of all ages! The life game changer! The unarmed Commander-in-chief that never lost a battle, The Prince of Favor! The perfect Judge! came from his root.  Although, he wasn't perfect, but two things made him exceptional; obedience and purity of heart. Nothing he did was for show nor for brag, but for pure purpose and need....

BIOLOGICAL MILES AND THE MOTHERLAND EXPERIENCE

Image
So many has happened within a very short period. I couldn't believe how fast I have accumulated many biological mileage. I have grown many teeth, walk, run, enrolled in preschool and now learning to speak and do some sign languages. Aside personal developments, I have had my first international flight experience to my motherland earlier this year at mere 7months to attend my grand dad's funeral. Although, that wasn't how I imagined my first visit to motherland, but fate made it so. The planning process involves a lot, like completing my immunization, having my international passport, and other paper and health work. Although, the travel itself was short, but the experience is amazingly remarkable. MY Mum and I~ On our 12hours Flight to Nigeria ME- So excited that I am traveling to the 'motherland' My Parent and Mr. Peter Obi (Former Governor of Anambra State) During our visit. My mum and I in our train heading to catch our flight to Orlando ...

POWERFUL FEELING OF BEING TWO

Image
For some reason I woke up yesterday feeling so powerful. I couldn't understand the feeling until I realized it was actually my birthday! whatever that means. Yay! it was my second birthday! I felt so powerful perhaps because of the surprising early morning 'happy birthday' song by Nonyelum's choir group led by my adorable mom with my daddy and great grandma as members. Maybe because it was my day, maybe not, maybe because of milestones I accomplished. Maybe not. Regardless of the reason behind the feeling, I am sure I exceeded all my milestones and that alone could not have been more fun without growing older by a way of adding another year! Yes! a day to celebrate just me, I guess that's what birthday means. Sometimes it seems like a trap growing old, but actually its not as am beginning to take control of different habits like communicating, expressing myself, being in charge picking up nature's call. Maybe that was the actual reason I felt so powerful. Most...
