5 Things Motherhood Has Taught Me That Nobody Prepared Me For

Image
Motherhood is one of those journeys you can read a thousand books about, listen to advice from experienced mothers, and still discover something new every single day. Before becoming a mother, I thought I understood what motherhood meant. Now, I laugh when I remember how confident I was.  Here are five things motherhood has taught me that nobody really prepared me for. 1. You can be tired and still keep going. There are days when your body is begging for rest, but your children have other plans. Someone is hungry, someone needs attention, someone has misplaced something that was literally in their hands two minutes ago.  Motherhood has taught me that I am stronger than I thought, but also that rest is important whenever I can get it. 2. Children can turn a quiet house upside down in minutes. A clean house can remain clean for approximately five minutes when children are around.  Toys appear everywhere, food somehow gets to places food shouldn't be, and sometimes I find my...

I Started Blogging in 2014. Here's Why I Stopped and Why I'm Back

Image
I started blogging in 2014, long before I ever imagined that I would return to it more than a decade later. At the time, I was an ardent follower of Linda Ikeji's Blog and Stella Dimoko Korkus' Blog. I enjoyed reading blogs, following trending stories and keeping up with what was happening around me. Eventually, I found myself thinking, "Why can't I have something like this too?" That was how my blogging journey began. I created my blog and started sharing the things I found interesting—entertainment, news, fashion, lifestyle, relationships and trending stories. I was excited about having my own little space on the internet. Then life happened. The setback I got admission into university, and shortly after, I was robbed around campus. It might sound like a small thing today, but at that time, that phone meant everything to me. It was the only device I had for blogging because I couldn't afford a laptop. Losing it was a major setback. Without my phone, blogging...

PHOTOS: Woman Marries HERSELF after Being Single for 6 Years

Image
Grace Gelder was so fed up with the dating scene and single life that she decided to become the first person in Britain to marry HERSELF. Grace decided to commit to the most important person in her life, 'proposed' to herself last November on a park bench and staged a full wedding ceremony with 50 guests. According to her, after being single for six years she had built up a brilliant relationship with herself - and creating that bond with someone else seemed like too much hard work. Inspired by the Björk song Isobel, which includes the line, 'My name's Isobel, married to myself', the Londoner said the lyric struck a chord with her and it was then she decided to walk solo down the aisle. Grace bought a dress, a ring, rehearsed vows and eventually wed in a farmhouse in rural Devon watched by her sister and friends - sealing the deal by planting a kiss on a mirror. Speaking to the Guardian, she said: "A few did comment, in a light-hearted w...

Image
And the divorce drama gets messier....:( A few days ago, Ini Edo took to twitter to confirm she is divorcing her hubby Phillip Ehiagwina, she however recited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the divorce and denied claims she had cheated on her husband. Well, relatives & friends of her soon to be ex husband are calling her out…saying she’s lying about being faithful. The close relative of Phillip Ehiagwina told PulseNG thus: Ini Edo should shut up about the marriage crash because with the way she is going by trying to paint Phillip as the wrong party, we may be forced to open her can of worms and it will not be palatable to her and her career. I can tell you that Ini Edo is a serial cheat who played the field behind her husband’s back for the duration of their marriage. Is she going to deny she was dating one Island big boy whose girlfriend organised her friends to beat her up and injured her? Another family source s...
