Happy Birthday Lil' B
Happy Birthday to you my dearest son!
When I first brought you from the hospital in 04,
I was so excited,and could not wait for you to try your new outfits,
and I couldn't wait to see you start rolling over,
When you started rolling,
I could not wait to see your first smile,
Once you showed us your first smile,
I couldn't wait for you to start sitting,
When you started sitting,
I could not wait for you to start crawling,
Once you mastered crawling, I was
looking forward to see you standing, and walking
Once you stood, and walked, I couldn't wait to see you
running, and kicking the ball!
Now four years old, and in preschool,
you are doing so many activities.
I believe this is what many other mothers do.
We are so caught up in what is yet to happen
Instead, enjoy the moment.
I love you with all my heart.
May all your good wishes come true!
May God bless you!
Enjoy your day!

Ndamona @ Seven months
My baby girl turned 7 months November 1. I'm still breastfeeding, and have started giving her three meals everyday like rice cereal, squash, yum and much more. Ndamona sleeps through the night, but wakes up to eat every 2- 3 hours, then go right back to sleep;this is very tiring because I just get one to two hours sleep then baby girl wakes up again, feed her, then it might take me an hour to go back to sleep, by the time I sleep for an hour, she gets up again. I think she is old enough to sleep without eating at night. I don't think she's really hungry, I think it's more of a habit. I could have wait until she turns 9 -12 months to break the habit, but I'm overly tired. It's about time I get my full night sleep. It has been 11 months since I slept for at least 4 hours. Can you believe it? During January of 08, I was put on bed rest and took terbutaline (medicine to reduce the contractions) every 4 hours 24/7 until April. Once the baby arrived, she kept me up all days and all nights long. I started training her since this week Monday, but she kept winning me because I don't want to hear her cry for longer than an hour. I'm determined to see her sleeping without eating at night. Right now I wish for a 5 hour long sleep. Women are the most strong people on earth. When it come deep to it, even if I don't get enough sleep right now its ok, my kids come first and I know the sleepless night won't last forever; before I know it, I'll be asking Ndamona to stay awake to listen to my stories or watch a good movie with me.

CNN Reports Borack Obama elected President
The month of November
We're listening to Christmas chorus at this moment. It's only November, but I'm already in the spirit. Christmas has always been my favorite fest since my childhood. I was so happy when I came to the States to learn that people start with the decorations around end of November. Some stores has started with the decorations already. Currently, I'm working on two kids books both Oshiwambo and English. I plan to finish these books before Christmas. I'm extremely busy these days, I don't know how I'm going to pull this off.
