MY VALENTINE

My darling husband 💖,

You were worth the wait!

Remember when we were just friends, the first time I told you that I have a personal blog; a haven I occasionally dump my stories & thoughts?...to which you carefully listened then asked:

“Will you one day write about me on your blog?” 

I laughed!! I laughed so hard then told you how for you to feature in my writing you’d have to be out-of-this-world special to me ... to which you thoughtfully responded:

“Mercy, never say never!” ….. and then went on a mission to overturn my entire life!! You clever, genius hunk of a man! 😉😉

I’m here today to categorically say that a blogpost is the least of what you, my elusive leading man, deserve!

The universe kept saying “The right person will show up, find a path into your heart and know how to hold your love with all the delicateness it deserves, choose you just as deeply as they choose themselves and as you choose them, reciprocate your vibe, match your energy and never make you feel like you’re too much”…and I’d be like “Weeeewe universe wacha zako! Mtu kama huyo ako kwa hii dunia kusema tu ukweli!??😂😝.”

The universe said …."Hold my beer 😂” then brought you along.

You have been my subtle reminder to never force a connection, or love, or give too much. I waited, with the innocence and eagerness of a toddler (amidst past resolve to not want love) for a love that would ‘soften’ my heart. Funny thing is I thought I didn’t need a man, and I kept telling you that time and again. Little did I know that you were and still are EXACTLY what I needed! 

I love our life. Maaan, I really do baby!!! We don’t have it all but what’s there is enough! We ride together, we go through the bad seasons too but I just love that we find a way to make life easy for each other as we keep saying - IPO SIKU - ipo siku yetu itafika nasi pia tutabarikiwa! You are God's gift to me and heaven knows I'm close to him more than ever because of you. Thank you Jaherana! Ero kamano sana osiep chunya!

My love for you remains unshakeable, unquestionable , irreversible, irrevocable and unstoppable.

Happy Valentine’s my King 

I Love You 💖💖💖

ROOFTOP

After exactly 3 months and 11 days, today I went back up the stairs to the rooftop of the apartment we stay at. Trembling and shaking, I kept taking a step after the next hoping to get to the top. Several times I kept thinking, …why go? …but kept at it regardless. On this rooftop, I had set a very calm meeting place with my Father. For about 3 months leading to the delivery of my darling baby girl, I'd come up here, do some simple workouts but most importantly have a daily tete-a-tete with Him. I couldn't and still can't wrap my head around the fatigue that comes with the 3rd trimester and rightly so, many times I contemplated not going up there. What made me keep up with the routine was the fact that I knew He was waiting for me and was eager to talk about how far and smooth my pregnancy journey was.   We'd talk about my hopes, dreams and plans for baby in my tummy. We'd discuss my maternity leave plans and among other things mostly just sit in the silence of dawn ...

With this topic, you know the norm right? I share some quotes I've come across that make some sense to me, well, because not all do. Picture quotes are more interesting to look at and so they'll take most space in this particular post. I will be overjoyed is you left a comment, maybe share one quote that keeps you going? Enjoy!  “It's not my responsibility to be beautiful. I'm not alive for that purpose. My existence is not about how desirable you find me." ~Warsan Shire. “Don't assume, ask. Be kind. Tell the truth. Don't say anything you can't stand behind fully. Have integrity. Tell people how you feel.” ~ Warsan Shire. “Perhaps, the problem is not the intensity of your love, but the quality of the people you are loving.”~ Warsan Shire.

The world didn't quite prepare me for the experience that came with this phase of my life. I boast occasionally of how easy it has been for me to grasp and adapt to changes in my life but this one, naah ...I had to readjust, relearn and extensively educate myself. What I'm I talking about, you ask? Motherhood. I am writing this while on my 3rd trimester; 35 weeks & 6 days to be precise. The once subtle baby kicks are now more defined you'd think the baby's made my womb a mixed martial art ring. It feels heavenly every time it happens and I am not joking when I say that I live for them kicks...I could be having a really crappy day but anytime I sit and the kicks intensify, my mood instantly changes!  The reason I started by saying that the world didn't quite prepare me for the journey is because with my many years of schooling and seeking knowledge, I realized that I didn't know much about pregnancy. I was never taught about what to expect in any of the trime...
