WCW(1)

   My woman crush Wednesday today is my mum. It's not mother's day so don't panic. You didn't forget to wish your mum happy mothers day. But do we always have to wait till mothers day before we appreciate our mothers? Yea I didn't think so too. So as I was saying, she is my woman crush Wednesday. My mum is like the strongest woman i have known. Lol. who wouldn't say that about their mum? But on a more serious note my mum has gone through a lot and she still remains the same smiling loving mum she has always been even when I am being a regular frustrating teen.
   She stopped her full time job to take care of her kids and give them her full attention towards the peak of her career when it became difficult to balance her work and house hold duties. Some women would have chosen their career over their home. But she stayed with us, giving us her time, coaching us teaching us values that would mold and shape our lives.
   Her work usually went unnoticed by me in particular until one day i had to stay at home and fill in her shoes for virtually that whole day. She had matters to attend to so i had to clean cook and co ordinate my younger ones. By the time I was done cooking while on my feet for almost 4hrs, I was exhausted and that was not the end. I had to clean up and by the end of the day i realized how much my mum worked and i didn't notice. I decided i was going to commend her. I think that made her day and I was glad it did.
   It's not easy having had four kids and losing one to an illness and still having the courage to move on an press on without being bitter. Yet my mum does all that and a lot more. She's the best mum in the world and i pray God keeps her alive for me so that i can be able to repay her in kind.
