I LOVE all – of my kids with ALL my heart, and I LIVE for them through the work I do.
This video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hj6RECNvMWE&feature=youtu.be) of my 2 year old son was recorded just before I left for Cotonou, the afternoon of the following day -Saturday – after his birthday.
T-boy is what I call him (Tayo Solagbade Junior being what I named him) – but his mother and siblings, plus grandparents (in a grand conspiracy) all call him David. Na wa O.
Anyway he clocked 2 years old on FRIDAY 8TH APRIL 2016 and his siblings put their home based baking biz to serve him.
He and his siblings had taken their home made Pizzas and other gifts to celebrate with their cousins that day.
So I got them to bake him the special cake with candles the morning after. That was their first ever formal effort at using icing on their cakes – and it was a BIG struggle, with yours truly getting involved, even though I knew next to nothing about it.
We managed to get it done – and I was sooooo proud of my boys and girls. Since arriving Cotonou? I have been showing off the videos and photos
