"Chuchu check the rice, it should be cooked by now" I instructed, today is noor's birthday and we are celebrating hers along with Abbu's on. His birthday is just two days before noors on, he is turning 65 while noor 1

It still feels like yesterday that I gave birth to her but she is all grown up now, Allahuma bareek. We are celebrating the birthday in my in-laws house, it's just a small family thing

"It's almost done" chuchu replied going back to the mock tail she was making, while I tried to finish decorating the second cake I baked, ummi sat chopping the vegetables for the salad, I have ordered for snacks already from the bakery so no stress

Noor was playing in the living room with her cousins so no disturbance, she can't speak but she speaks gibberish way to much for her age. Concentrating in what i was doing I hastened up

"Pass me the eggs" ummi requested politely

I passed and walked to the gas cooker and turned it off "chuchu the food warmer please" she passed it and I turned the rice into three big food warmers, our chicken was currently roasting in the oven. I was frosting the cupcakes, the birthday party was to start by 7 after magrib and it was currently 4;27pm so we have less than 2hours to finish setting everywhere.

A simple decoration was done, the backyard looks great. I and noor are wearing matching gowns, 1 want thing I love with been a girl mom is we were matching outfits and that's super cute, after we finished our arrangements, we started moving them to the backyard and arranged everything. A birthday cake was ordered from gogzy, they make the best cake in Abuja.

"Noor" i cooed after picking her up from where she played

"Maama, maama" came her baby voice, she calls everyone maama, including her dad

"Let's go get dressed darling" i said to her kissing her round her face while she giggled

I wore her peach gown for her and a bow styled cap, she looked so stunning in it, I must say pink fits her so well. I prayed magrib and freshened up before getting dressed in a lemon green flay gown with balloon hands and styled an army green turban on my head, i did a very light makeup which consisted of just mascara, powder, eyeliner, lipgloss. Wore my accessories which consisted of watch, rings, earrings and necklace. It was currently 6;50 and some of qalbi's cousin have started arriving, so I moved out to cross check everything one last time and it was all good

"Awwwwn, you look stunning adda" chuchu compliment

"Thank you darling, you don't look bad either" i said with a smile, she was also dressed in a dress similar to mine but hers was black

"Thank you, yaya is looking for you" she informed

"Is he in the living room? I was about calling him" I spoke

"Yes, he is upstairs" she said and I nodded, I climbed up to meet him

"Baeee we didn't even hang out much today, you look gorgeous" he said with a pout hugging me

"Thank youuu, but then free me, we are in your parents house remember" I said trying to free myself from him

"And so? We aren't doing anything wrong" he said hugging me tighter

"Dan Allah mana, Nikam sakani" I whined but he refused, what's even wrong with him today

We heard someone clearing his throat form the back and to turn it was Abbu who was standing there, it was as if the ground should swallow me now

"Let's go downstairs, guest have arrived" were the only words he said with a mischievous smile and walked to the staircase

I gave qalbi a nice hit in his arm for embarrassing me. "What was that for??" He retorted in pain, holding the place
