Firstly, for a successful delivery by my wife because it was her first time. I was just too frightened walking down the street leading to the Clinic where she was deliverd. My younger sister, who was present at the labour room comes out from time to time to give me the minute by minute account of what was happening inside. I actually felt pity for my wife, knowing the pain she was going through at that particular time. If it was possible, I would have joined her in the room and help her ease the pain but I just couldn't. I was scared.
Secondly, I was happy because I was told that when you have a girl as the first child, you willl be visited by luck and your fortune will change for the better. Well, as much as I dont believe in such things, I cannot but testify to it today that things have really changed for the better since then.
Last year, Eight years after the first child, my wife delivered another baby girl. I can imagine you thinking, "Another blessing, right?" Yes, she is indeed a blessing to my family. What more can I say. I am blessed with 3 women in my life!!! My lovely wife and my 2 beautiful daughters. Only me? Yes, only me.
