Have you ever woken up from your life and it feels like a dream. That's how mine currently feels. I am standing in my bathroom mirror looking at my bloated stomach. I still can't believe that I have a baby growing in me. I can't believe that I am going to be a mother. How I would pray for a day like this ,the day I would feel like a complete woman because I can also produce fruits out of my womb.
My tears escaped me and Tshile walks in the room. He wraps his arms around us. That's normally what he does lately just wrap his arms around me and kiss my forehead or my tummy.
"It feels unreal " I say "I know baby,do you want me to book you another appointment with the gynaecologist?" He asks that's what's been happening for the last few weeks. He takes me to go listen to the heartbeat so I can come to terms with my reality. "No baby it's fine" I say taking a deep breath We stand in silence.
"How was I married for eight years Tshile and not the slightest bit of a late period and four months with you I have a bun in the oven ?" I ask him for the hundredth "Everything is Gods timing Tshepi" he says and I sigh
"How I had my life planned out ,get educated get married and have kids,look at me now?" I say "But you did all that and Gods showing you sometimes not having control is also not as bad thing" he says "Do you think God punished me for leaving you?" I ask "Nonsense!Tsheps look I had alot of growing up to do as well,we probably would have hated each other now" he says
"Are we going to tell our family?" I ask "Uhmmmm! My mother sort of knows" he says and my eyes shoot out. "How?" I ask "I was worried about how I will approach you with my suspicions,so I had mentioned to her and she has been excited for us" he says "How about my parents?" I ask "I was hoping I can send my uncle's ,I want you both to carry my surname " he says And tears streaming. "I want to keep the promises I made to you,Tsheps I want to add value into your existence " he says

Tshepi_KK Finding a partner who brings you peace is not just a stroke of luck, but a conscious choice to prioritize emotional well-being in your relationship. It is an acknowledgment that true happiness comes from a harmonious connection, where both partners contribute to each other's tranquility. In a world that often glorifies passion and intensity, it is easy to overlook the significance of peace. Yet, it is the absence of conflict and the presence of a serene bond that allow love to flourish and endure. A peaceful partner understands the importance of open communication, empathy, and compromise. They seek to understand your needs and emotions, offering a safe space for vulnerability and understanding. With them, you can be your authentic self without fear of judgment or rejection. Their peaceful presence becomes a source of strength, allowing you to face life's challenges with a peaceful heart and a steadfast spirit.
