The Diary Game: Early Morning Bond With My Son And Rainy Day 26/4/2026

Before leaving for work this morning as s special worker, I had a little time with my son. He got up from sleep white early while I was preparing for work and was all over me and won't let go so I decided to make him happy by playing with him and also serving him cheese balls when he became hungry because food was not ready yet though my wife was in the kitchen making breakfast.

Breakfast was ready and my wife carried him so she could feed him but he didn't want to follow the mom so I fed him before having my own breakfast, he was satisfied or should I say overly satisfied that he went back to bed himself without being forced to. I took my bath, got dressed and left to work. While I was still on my way to work, I received a call from my wife that she will be going to church and from there would visit her parents before returning home and I told her to take all the time she needed as I knew how boring it's always been for her being at home alone especially this period we're having light challenge and there's no means of using the electronics.

I got to work and was a feeling a bit worried for not being in Church then I decided to stream our service online, Thank God for technology. Work was going well and I enjoyed today's service, someone shared a testimony that was mind blowing, and I sowed towards it in order to receive such blessings because it was humbling. In the afternoon, I took a short break and went to buy chicken with juice from a spot close to my work place but they were still closed and since I don't like getting it anywhere else, I reported back at work but used the money to buy a rubber of palm oil I saw close to the spot I went to buy chicken which was quite affordable.

The rain came during the late hours of the afternoon and I kept praying in my mind for it to subside or stop when it's time for me to return home because I was hungry and won't be patient to delay for more hours at home because of the rain and to God be the Glory, the rain subsided in the evening while I began to pack up my items to return home. I met my neighbor on my way though we were close to the house, he was with fresh atama leaves although I didn't know what it was at first despite leaving here in Akwa Ibom for almost six years. I asked him and he told me the name and also explained two ways it's being prepared as a meal and I marveled at the excellent cooking skills he has as a bachelor because at that stage of my life, I depended on women to make most of my meals.

I got home and my wife wasn't back yet from her parents place but the good thing was that there was food at home which was already cooked so warmed and scooped some portion and ate before taking my bath and relaxing. I fell asleep a short while on the couch that my wife came home knocking and I didn't hear on time till my phone rang and I got up to take the call, I was told to open the door which I did before we all had our dinner together after it was prepared and I went I bed due to how exhausted I was.
