Portrait of a Sweet Relationship: My Mother, My Son

Every day when we get off the elevator and walk to our "adis bet" (new home), Buchela asks if "Amaye" is going to be there.

When I unlock the door to the apartment, he runs in calling "Amaye!" "Amaye!" and looks around.

If he doesn't find her, for a brief moment, he gets upset.

Every. Single. Day.

Beautiful, Yemi. I see where you get your konjo from :)

I hope everything is okay with your family. Buchela is certainly growing up. How neat that he had his very first swing experience!

We go through this after Great Grandma stays with us or we've been down to Florida to see her. The first time he said, "Love you!" was when she was walking out of the door to leave. Grandma's are special, no doubt about it~

Yemi - I hope everything is Ok with your family. Buchiye looks so happy to be with his grandma. My nephew gets all upset when we call our Mom Emaye, and keeps saying
yene emaye, yene Emaye ..to imply that she is only his and not ours and we get a kick out of making him jealous :)

It is good to see your posts back. :)

Hi guys,

Yes, I am back. I really want to keep blogging but sometimes it is impossible because I have so much to do between work, my kids, and doctor stuff.

I think I am in the swing of things. So, I should be able to update at least a couple of times a week, if not more.

Thank you all for keeping up with me and for sending me some very thoughtful messages.
