He took his first steps today...Yipee!!

Hi there, Momore took his first steps today!!!! I'm so happy and everyone needs to hear this. Lol. I was somewhere waiting to be attended to, and while waiting, Momore's foster brother (living with us) pointed my attention to the fact that he had taken a step unaided. I was flabbergasted! I immediately took my phone and started recording his every action, hoping he would repeat the steps again, and he sure did. I made up to 10 short videos. I was very ready for this because recently, a friend told me when her daughter took her first steps but sadly, she wasn't able to make any videos, and that was when i told myself that i had to be ready for mine. Hehehehe.

We were all so excited that we totally forgot we were not at home and started laughing whenever he took one or two steps. I guess he knew i was recording, as he kept entertaining us and sometimes even made me forget that i was a bit disappointed that i couldn't see the person i went there to see.

In short, it was a lovely day for us. I have at different points been anxious to see him sit, crawl, stand, speak clearly, clap, walk, and all these have been achieved. I know experienced moms and others too will say that my work has just begun, but "abeg" (means 'please') i can't to see him walk very well, run, go to school, date ;), graduate from Uni, get married etc. It’s been a wonderful journey so far and i know it can only get better. I am however very grateful to God for giving me the grace to "mother" this wonderful boy and i pray for such grace for everyone who prays for same too.
