We celebrated our beloved sister's birthday today, we talked and had fun as a family. Celebrating birthdays is one of the things that brings family together and strengthen one another bonds to become stronger. While we were celebrating our niece birthday, her mother told us the history and what happened when she got pregnant for her husband at that time. She said when they got married newly, just few months the husband told her he doesn't want them to start having kids or children yet.
The husband said he wants them to enjoy life first, travel to different places for adventures, going to occasions and attending weddings together. But if she gets pregnant so early, they won't be able to travel to different places again due to her pregnancy condition, or go to party to dance and have fun together while being pregnant.
She agreed and accepted to his terms, but after three months of their marriage she got pregnant and refused to tell her husband. The husband came back home after his two weeks trips for business purposes and wanted to take her out for three days outting in a close by hostel but found her on a sick bed. She told me she had been feeling dizzy, cold and feverish for days but she has been taking medication she bought from a nearby chemist for malaria treatment. But it seems it's not getting any more better.
The husband asked they will go to hospital and run some tests on her to know the exact problem so she can receive good and proper treatment. After they went to the hospital and was told that his wife is three months pregnant and had malaria, the husband was shocked why or how he didn't noticed his wife is pregnant even though the wife is big and have big body structure.
The wife smiled at the results interpreted by the physician and told the husband she knew she is pregnant and didn't know how to tell him considering the fact they all agreed for her not to get pregnant this early after their marriage ceremony. All of them laughed and went home happily and started planning for the baby. And today, the little baby whose husband didn't expect so soon is now 17 years old. When we heard the history and story from the mother we too laughed and tease our the birthday girl Precious, whose is my niece. Daddy unexpected baby girl has now grown and becoming a full grown up lady.
We sing and dance around the setting room, we drank drinks and ate cake. We pray for her and wished her many more years ahead and long life and prosperity with different fruitfulness of any good things life can offer in her life.
It was indeed a beautiful day and an amazing birthday celebration we had with one big family.
