Christmas that one holiday that is beyond compared. In Zayatun Bello's voice it's the one holiday that fills the earth with so much love and care. It was the 21 is December 2018 and I was with my family we went for a beach party at the lekki leisure lake. It was the first time Chloe mom and I were going out as a family along with serenity my daughter. It was also her first family outing as well as she won't stop giggling and laughing.

The Osun state governor would have  been here as well but he couldn't make it. He had Offical matters to attend to and I'm my heart of heart I knew this gathering would have been awkward so I am glad he couldn't make it. If he did then he won't be able to stay long because of the  attitude Chloe and I will unconsciously give him.

We were in our tent having lunch which  was Chinese food and I was busy savoring the taste in my mouth. Serenity was hitting the table as an indication that she wanted some so I gave her the part that wasn't too spicy or difficult for her to chew. Since she was just growing her tooth, she could really chew much she was using her saliva to March  the food in her mouth.

She stared at me while Trying to Chew on the one I give her with the little tooth she has. When she got got tied she swallowed it like that's i and gave her water to drink. He began hitting the table again for me and I gave her the softest part of the rice to chew and swallows. When she finished eating that one well she looked at me with her dove eyes and instantly I knew she wanted more.  I just laughed at her and she giggle as well before I put some more into her mouth. I have no idea that all this while my biological mother was watching me.

"You are such an amazing mother Zoe, I don't why it took me so long to so it."

" it's okay mom. At least you are here now and you are going to Make amends. Beside I am sure you would have been a better mother if only you held unto us when you still could."

She smile at me letting my words resonate in her ears. This was indeed a magical moment for me and for serenity. Chloe would have been siting here with us oo , but for some reasons, she was taking a horse ride and acting like a Girl name Uwana from the literature text titled My Uwana. we both read the book when we are in JSS 1 and it was about a girl who rides a horse to school in the  middle of Canada. Such a weird yet touching and interesting storyline, i would have read the  book finish oo bit Omo the book had  six-three and I gave up at chapter two. Before I could get further  lost in thought again, mom spoke

"Hey, looks I... I know I haven't been like the best mom the Universe has to offer. And i have Made horrible mistake that made you Wish and wasn't your actual mom. I know, I see the way to look at Mrs Babajide and trust me it hurts that you don't look at me like that but it's cool. I guess I deserve that, maybe even worse than that but still. I'd like you to find it on your heart to forgive me Because believe it or not from this day  forward I will continue to be there and be the best mother you can ever ask for. I am sorry I wish you and your twin sister away when you were newly born."

She said concluding and apologizing and I simply smiled at get. That single act caused tears to flow from hey eyed I'm river's off water. At that point thank Goodness I had finished eating so it was easy to Will my self to stand up and go and hugged. It felt foreign ad first because it was my first time hugging my mom, but as the cool breeze blow sending shiver down my spin do began to feel the warmth our hug radiating through our bodies .

" it alright moms. All is forgiven. We all make mistakes, it's the ability to correct and learn from them is what makes us human."

" thank you Zoe. Thank you. My beautiful princess thank you."
