Must Read - A Life Lesson From My Daughter's Award In School by EmekaStanley: 5:30pm On Jul 28, 2023 |
You can't give what you don't have; you can only instill in your kids what you have imbibed in you. My daughter Eden aged 4, won the award for the neatest girl in school. I was not very surprised; I was just pleased that the school noticed how clean she always looks. And this is the handiwork of my wife, her mother who herself was a prefect in charge of neatness when she was in secondary school. Years after, she is instilling that neatness identity into her children. She ensures my kids' uniforms are washed and ironed every day. At times I wake up in the middle of the night to ease myself, and there she is, ironing the Children's uniforms. Needless to say that the home is almost always very neat even with the presence of 2 active kids coupled with the help of a paid cleaner. The point is, a lot of people from their mid twenties upwards were raised right but along the line they lost the precepts they were raised with. They fell for a new world or society where anything goes; where nothing seems to be bad anymore. You can choose to be one of those who are still 'traditional' when it comes to sticking with the right things in life. All the same, Congratulations to my wife and to my daughter.

A good story but I am yet to see the life lesson. I am not downplaying your wife's good quality. But as I see "Life lesson" in the post, I expected to read something unique or extraordinary that resulted in your daughter getting the award. |

EmekaStanley:Which one is open mind? Kids win the neatness award in many schools and nobody exaggerated it to be a life lesson. Some of the winners are kept neat by nannies, not even by parents. I am not downplaying your wife's good quality. But as I see "Life lesson" in the post, I expected to read something unique or extraordinary that resulted in your daughter getting the award. Well, it is good for one to be so much excited about his or her achievements. You probably put, "Life lesson", in the post because you are very excited about your daughter's award. Keep it up. |

Congratulations to your daughter for her award. "At times I wake up in the middle of the night to ease myself, and there she is, ironing the Children's uniforms".....I just to want to believe that is when "NEPA light" was restored but if it is a pattern on her own part, she has to slow it down. I love neatness but I love children who play and get dirty, like the tag line of OMO.....dirt is good! |

@OP, well-done for recognising and appreciating ur wife's effort, but is only your daughter that deserve all the praises. There was a time I had 3 kids in same school same time but only one was always given that kind of award, because he is a gentle guy and doesn't play rough others wasn't like him. I have a great friend who is very neat but, when u see her son in school, hmmmm let me just say wonderful wonder. When your daughter gets to secondary sch, she will be the one taking care of herself so, if she is still taking it that's when u should have written this kind of epistle to praise Ur wife and for other women to learn from her. |
