The day after our wedding, a dear one called and we responded that we were already in the place we chose for our honeymoon. We were to be there for the whole week. She said to us, “You both are very smart. We did not have any honeymoon. We just went back home to continue life and we had spent […]
Some few months after our wedding, we were in a supermart and we needed to buy body cream for the family. I had no particular preference but my wife had the one she was using as a single lady. We headed straight to the section that housed what we wanted. When we saw the price, we looked at each other. […]
When she gave the first push, the midwives began to encourage her. I kept telling her, “Babe, I am here. You can do this”. When the team lead noticed that she was getting a bit tired after about three pushes. She did something profound- she took my wife’s hands and told her, “Touch your baby’s head. She is here already. […]
The nurse told my beloved wife, “When you sense a strong urge that feels like you want to defecate, let me know. It means you are ready to push”. Then she left us to attend to other things. Some few minutes later, my wife began to say to me, “I want to defecate”. I called the midwives and they all […]
When we landed at the hospital, the nurse on duty ushered us into the labour room to check the progress of labour. We had been confessing throughout the pregnancy that she dilates fast, fully and delivers with ease. When the nurse checked and mentioned that she was 8cm gone, we simply began to rejoice. Hope was lifted. We looked at […]
Irewamiri had a typical morning routine of getting things set for the school while I had to bathe Danielle and get her ready also. As labour progressed, we had to decide to either abandon everything and focus on labour or just carry on with our morning schedule in the midst of it all- we focused on our morning schedules. She […]
After about 4 hours of being awake, I kept on encouraging Irewamiri as she went through the intermittent pains of labour. I would hold her as the pains heightened. She told me what she wanted me to do to help her through. But then Danielle woke up and noticed something unusual was happening. As we strolled in the compound around […]
Around 2 am, Irewamiri came to wake me up with these words, “Baby, I have been labouring for the past 2 hours. I cannot do it by myself. I need you by my side”. Well! Sleep vanished. I did not even know she was not by my side anymore. We began to labour together. 😊 Birthing your God-given vision is […]
I was working inside the house when I heard Irewamiri scolding a young girl. She said to her, “You and these your short skirts”. First I wondered who she was scolding and I thought to step out to see. At that moment, the Holy Spirit asked a question, “Why do you want to see who was wearing the short skirt?” […]
A while back, one of the Christian organizations I relate with paid us a courtesy visit in the office. In the middle of our conversation, I realised that one of the female executives had no issue with having her male fiancé spend the night in her room. I had to take out time to teach and guide them by the […]
