Good day great steemians. I bring you greetings from Nigeria my home country and welcome to my blog where I share my daily lifestyle with you all. Do have a pleasant time reading through.

Woke up at 5am and began to prepare for church service. Having to prepare toddlers and a baby every Sunday morning is very tiring because when you are set, one will just say I want to pee or poo or spill tea on their clothes. The list goes on and on but what can a mother do? I have to attend to them so we have a good time at church.

We arrived at 6:45am, I dropped the kids in their class and went to my duty post in church. ![IMG_20250413_065421_633.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmYZcJSUcqv44i28s5KWtEWPuAhYe6vdX773DiF6ibcm2v/IMG_20250413_065421_633.jpg) ^{as a unit, we pray before the service begins}

Today was our covenant day of favour service,I was posted to the entrance of the church where I welcome many worshippers in and I was really blessed with the praises and preaching and communion today. ![IMG_20250413_065824_045.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmRwdkxBnHCvpWR3Jyoh1XX68KmGGkd6wLiCHX63Y3598E/IMG_20250413_065824_045.jpg) ^{at the entrance}

It is also our duty to count the attendance for the day and I was asked to go count the children at the children's church and I gladly obliged. ![IMG_20250413_082227_738.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmT4MKoTySpCkxwYh4EYRpBDkpn2qsd3kcLXBrDy9zJbX3/IMG_20250413_082227_738.jpg) ^{counting the children in attendance}

Today I attended just one service instead of two because I hadn't had enough sleep last night and needed to do some chores so I went to pick the kids from their classes and drove home. My husband stayed for the second service because he had a meeting to attend. Got home and went to the kitchen to cook ![IMG_20250413_100740_222.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmZWe3u3u9FA97KWHfASqugSKPYAY3KQGsbtiWJs1KLpXs/IMG_20250413_100740_222.jpg) ^{picking the beans} Parboiled it and made a very big pot of rice and beans ![IMG_20250413_112640_698.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmXvBzn3R72HkVM6f5vyT2pgtoa8kj9uDatWaQQMjEUanq/IMG_20250413_112640_698.jpg) ^{cooking in progress} The kids were already screaming my name for hunger so I quickly brought out fruits from the fridge for us to snack on as we wait for the food. ![IMG_20250413_104804_696.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmZypXecRQ4c219yveNWMPvpP9zmh3SQcoqcjvyvhHx1LF/IMG_20250413_104804_696.jpg) ^{snacking on fruits}

So I gave them my phone to watch cartoon while I concluded the cooking and in no time, food was ready and I served them. Today was indeed a lovely day for me and I intentionally made a very big pot of food because I wanted sharing with my neighbors also. ![IMG_20250413_122824_180.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmUHaGZ72y14GcuRofjVibqCsdzQXgVTS95FZFo8j1Jjc1/IMG_20250413_122824_180.jpg) ^{packaged for my neighbors} I went to their houses and surprised them. They were happy and prayed for me. I felt so much joy doing little things like this. Love your neighbors as yourself. I came back home and dished mine and ate. ![IMG_20250413_123409_896.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmebbE1VdamNy6c5h5ZPJQkahwstCGKDRCLgdM1gaWAjyk/IMG_20250413_123409_896.jpg) ^{rice&bean with stew, lettuce salad and Zobo drink}

Did the dishes and rested, then slept for about 2 hours, woke up at about 5pm, attended to the baby and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner. ![IMG_20250413_183308_212.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmPBZ2cNeekKyJhHQNSNd24BnckkqjUZig2EUatNFvpPvw/IMG_20250413_183308_212.jpg) ^{egusi soup with potato swallow} Finally did the dishes and bath the kids. Also had mine and had chit chat with my husband before heading to bed for the day. Thank you for reading my daily lifestyle blog, till I post again. It's a good night for me. Shalom
