Say hello, Master Somto.

Hi Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a special guest poster today. Enjoy

Hello Everyone,

My name is Somtochukwu Alexander Ejimofor. I am 5 and a half months old. I live with my mummy and my daddy and my aunty Esther in our house. I have plenty hair on my head, blue eyes and a small nose. I am fair in complexion and I like to smile even though I have no tooth. Yet.

My favourite food is SMA milk and cereal and I try to finish every bottle which mummy gives me, no matter how big it is. Sometimes I wonder why they shout when my tummy grows big after eating. Is the food supposed to go somewhere else?  I don’t like to cry but its only when I am hungry  and aunty Esther is watching African magic instead of making food for me, then I will show her what I can do with my voice.

My Favourite hobby is to catch anything around the house and put in my mouth. Mummy shouts when she sees me. I don’t understand why. I am only trying to help them clean these things. I also like to carry different things from where they are placed. Again, I don’t understand why aunty Esther takes them away from me because I am only trying to show her how to arrange our house. Maybe its because I throw them or slam them into their correct place when I carry them. Who knows?.

I like to move around the house even though I just learnt how to crawl. My uncle bought me a motorcar walker (he thinks I don’t know that it is because he is too lazy to carry me) which i use to explore the house and one day when mummy is not looking, I will climb out of it and walk with my legs. I am learning how to stand with support and if mummy had not removed the second mattress layer from my crib, I would have been able to climb out of it by now.

My mummy is very beautiful and loves me very much.  She works in a bank and she likes to carry me when she comes back from work everyday but I don’t understand why she says I have too much energy when I am only trying to show her what I learnt that day. My Daddy is an engineer and he works outside Lagos and comes to be with us whenever he can. My uncles come to visit us too and they always carry me around (as if I cannot move by myself!).My Grandma and Grandpa live in the village and whenever they come to see us, they always like to play with me. I understand why since I am their first grandchild.

I also like to sleep. What I don’t like is when the sleep wants to come, it will start to do as if it wants to fight with me so I always fight it back until I wake up and see that it won. As I am writing this, it has started coming again, so I will have to leave you all to fight with it again. Bye.
