For this week’s challenge on #WQWWC, Ronovan chose Laughter. Here’s my take on it
In Nigeria and I believe everyother place, the festive period is a time for connecting, celebrations and of course eating!!! You need to check out our Christmas holidays. I wrote about my experience some time back.
Growing up in a Christian setting, it was the norm for little Blossom’s (Duch B) family to be in church for thanksgiving every December. This December was no exception and they were in the village! The Anglican Pastor (probably from excitement of seeing so many people at this period) preached a very loooong sermon. Blossom (5years+), who had gotten tired of listening, left her mother’s side (unbeknownst to her), walked boldly down the aisle to the altar with arms akimbo and in a loud voice, told the Pastor that he was talking too much! 🙂
Her mum was so embarrassed that she couldn’t even get up to pick her, as they were seated at the back and the aisle (you bet) was a long way off. A long walk to freedom you’d say!

Hilarious, Frances, out of the mouth of babes comes the truth.

I can imagine how embarrassed the mum would be, but – that would be something I’d never forget!

LOL. And she’s still the out-spoken person she was then as an adult now. Cracks me up everytime she speaks. She’s married now but still mischievous
