It's Christmas 🎄🎄🎄🎄

Yes, the moment is here. Everywhere is bubbling. Christmas sounds are echoing among children and adult. Families are dining together, seeing each other appreciating another end of the year. The grandchildren running around the environment. The adult organizing everything and giving instructions on how the food should go. Grandma is sitting down supervising the meats and chickens.

Wait! This is my family I am talking about. This should also be done in some homes.

I understand the platform was somehow silent yesterday and I know it's because of the season. People are focusing on how things should be planned. I was standing all through yesterday cooking and serving everyone at home. I was only able to sit for few minutes and grandma already started calling my name to do other things. In the evening, I almost broke down due to my tiredness. In fact, I only squeezed time to write this article.

The children went to Church last night for the Christmas Eve Celebration. I was indoor as I couldn't go because of my state and besides, a gift was presented to me yesterday that I had to give it some time to check through.

I got my laptop from my sister. She ordered it for me and brought it home for me. This has been my number one wish and I am glad it was granted even before the new year. God provided for her. With this, I am taking it as a double Celebration for me. Christmas and Birthday gift next month.

I took my time last night exploring the new system. I even used it to read and commented on articles on read.cash

I signed into my Gmail accounts and also signed in my noise.cash and Hive so as to check out the work. I was somehow slow using it for these Platforms because I was already used to my phone but I know it's the first time and with time, I will be used to it.

I should go now to monitor the children on what they are doing. We want to prepare Christmas food before the children would go to Church. It would be another busy day today and this will continue till the end of the year and entering into a new year.

Mama said we should take tea and bread this morning then taking pounded yam with Egusi soup in the afternoon after returning back from Church. This is my favorite and I can't miss it for anything. Christmas is already getting interesting here with everyone running around.

I am so happy because this is my first Christmas on this platform and it would be a memory for me. Yesterday, noise.cash clocked a year and today, we are celebrating Christmas. Isn't that much merriment?

Village is always sweet and fun and it becomes tough if you can't light up the firewood. This is what we use here because we can't use Gas for such quantity of food. We might end up filling more than what we do not expect.

The children already went to get firewoods in the forest that would last till the end of the celebration before everyone returns back to their destinations.

We have a way we do our morning devotion here. The prayer starts by 6pm and it's always 45 minutes gathering. After praying and sharing the grace, we would start the greeting that takes nothing less than 15 minutes because we would greet everyone each seated on the chair starting from the eldest which is my Grandma to the young adult among us. This has always been our own way of doing in our house.

We had two guests yesterday and they were Muslims from my Grandma's lineage. They were surprised seeing how we conducted our morning prayer and I like them too. They also understood we are serving the same God irrespective of our religions.

The power of team work cannot be underestimated. My Aunt instructed us to pick and cut the Vegetables. You can see me sitting with a lady while other two people joined us cutting it while I am picking it.

I believe everyone of us are preparing already with your families. I want to use this moment to wish everyone of us Happy Christmas and New Year in advance. From the bottom of my heart, I love you and let's enjoy this moment.

Thanks for reading
