Children: My View, Myself Wk40.

INTRODUCTION

Children are the spark of life, the essence of innocence, and the embodiment of curiosity. They are the tiny humans who bring immense joy, unconditional love, and unbridled energy to our lives.

What do you understand by the word Children?

I'd say the word children are the young ones who depends on (adults) like us for love, care, support and guidance. They are precious gift that brings us joy and happiness 😌 I call them the future generation. They are vulnerable, innocent and also annoying little humans with pure love and joy in their hearts. They are the most integral part of our life

Tell us your experience with children.

I've had so much experiences with children and I wish I'm always a child, but only if wishes where horses. When I was living in Nasarawa I had the opportunity to live where children where so many and within a very short period of time I was able to win them ove with food. I'm so so good with children and I think my children will be so lucky to have a man as me.

So the best experience I had with the child was one day, I came back from school and the child's mom had gone to the market, she is a market woman that buys and sells. The child was already 2 years then and she had other children to play with. He dad's mom stays in the same compound with them but they don't look out for her like that, that's reasons best known to them though.

One day I came back home and I saw her crying, I asked why she was crying even though it was hard for me to communicate with her in Hausa, I knew she understands the question I asked her as she was pointing to the person that beat her😃 and calling her name. The other child is a bully, I have noticed severally how she beats other children and whenever you complain to her parents you will hear things like she is just a child, I believe that's how children learn how to bully others.

So back to my friend, I took her from the ground and held her on my hand, I pleaded her to stop crying that I had something for her, I took her to my room and i made noodles for her, she isn't the Noodle type becajse she is so uses to tuwo(the hausa tribal food) but then thats what i have to give her at that point because i don't eat Tuwo myself.

From there we became more closer and she comes to find me any day she gets beaten, she call me ble as in blessing because that's what her mum do call me. She come to my door everyday calling my name to open the door for her. She sleeps in my room, sometimes I bath her before her mum comes . back from the market and this create a good relationship between us. I miss her so much and I was told she has started going to school recently I'm a proud friend. If I can't see her during Christmas, I will try to send her Christmas gifts across to her.

How many children do you intend to have in the future? Also, more girls or more boys?

Before I got married, this is the part of discussion I took really serious because I don't want to turn into a baby factory so we discussed this very very well and we concluded on having 3 children. We don't care about the gender as children are gifts from God and we can't really detect the gender that would come but we are ready to accept any gender as a fruit of our marriage.

God answers the prayers of little children, how true is that?

Very true.
Their innocence can not be compared to that of an adult. Even though they where born with an original sin( sins of Adam and Eve) they don't know anything about sin or impurity untill they grow into an adult and understands what life is. A prayer of a little child is like a prayer of a man who is broken and praying with a contrite heart. And we know God does not despise a broken and contrite heart.

Imagin a child asking God to bless her mummy's womb because she want a brother or sister, an innocent prayer from an innocent child. So I believe that it is true God answers prayer of little children. Jesus speaking in Mathew 18:3-4 Jesus said "Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever humbles themselves like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

In conclusion.

I want you'll to know that children are a precious gift from God to us, a source of inspiration, and a reminder of the magic and wonder of life. They bring us joy, challenge us to grow, and teach us to see the world through fresh eyes.
