Sonnie’s Porch

I personally went to one of our centers last week to visit a pregnant staff to personally thank her for her support, hard work and dedication, and inform her also of my decision to accept an offer to be an Asst. Vice President of another company.  She’s on the last Q of her sensitive pregnancy and I don’t find it proper for her to travel all the way to the other end of the city for this. I can see both the excitement and hardship on her face brought about by this pregnancy.

My kids are now 11 and 9, but I still remember the first night with my boy when I sought the help of a nurse because I can’t make him stop crying. I feel so helpless specially that wifey is still recuperating from the C operation. I also remember the joy when our baby first smiled, the challenge of giving the first bath, first solid food and the elation when we see our baby make the first step.  Ohh that was a decade ago, I miss those times but, it does not mean I want another baby, he he he. It’s expensive to raise a child.

Those were the days when we were so concerned of a lot of things, we bought an air conditioning unit for the baby. We rented a bigger house and even ensure the babes have their crib and beddings. Though, there were baby beddings endowed with animal & kiddie characters,  the  fire truck bedding now on sale at  beyondbeddings.com is not available then.

I can share with the excitment on the face of my staff but I can also feel some of her worries. So we prayed together for her safety and the baby, and requested the good Lord to bless her and the child of good health, protection and prosperity for the family on the days ahead.
