Hello, dear Steemians!
Today i want to share about a Seed.... A seed has everything it needs to succeed within itself. It is self contained, provided that proper environment is provided for it, It will pull all the water, sunlight and nutrients it needs to grow. It will fight to break out of the ground and as sure a day and night are it will grow....
When I started out the journey of parenting in 2014 after my twins were born, It looked like an impossible mission since almost every slibling of mine was helped by my parents to raise their kids... But not me!!!! I wanted a challenge....And a challenge I got.... From the doorsteps of the hospital where everything was rosy, just coming and seeing the little ones being taken care of (fed, cleaned etc...) and holding and playing with them, I thought "this is the life".... Then it hit me, it was a mirage...

The beutiful images i had held at the hospital were a lie... Nobody advised me of the work that was awaiting me....The same night I took them home, they caught a very bad cold which led us back to the hospital again and our sleepless nights were at its inception.. We would sleep for a maximum 2 hrs per night (not block two hours but 15 mins here, 10 mins there....you get the point :) )for the next 6 months since they alternated in waking up.
This picture perfectly demonstrates what i was going through.... It felt like my world was crumbling down...to be continued....Children duty :)
