The unimaginable

I just had a moment.
Like everyone else, I still can’t believe we are  the current adults now.

An old friend of mine, who’s a mom now (I have to remind myself of that every so often because, eiy 🤣), always says, “The smallest coffins are the hardest to carry.”

I’m not a mom yet. But I genuinely love babies. And somehow, babies just gravitate toward me.

So I get what she means.

Just this Wednesday, I wrote a letter in my diary to my future child. I even gave them a name, something unisex, for the balance.

My brother recently had a baby..Kibali. I’ve been with him since he was 0 days old. And honestly? I think, somewhere in his tiny heart, he might believe I’m his mom.
Okay, not to brag, but you should see how his face lights up every time he sees me. And he just turned three months old on Sunday.

He is my little darling right now. The reason my days feel lighter. When I see Kibali, it’s like everything turns to bliss.

Recently, someone in our neighborhood lost a child, not even a year old.
My heart broke for them.

I’ve been trying to imagine what they must be feeling. And all I know for sure is, it’s devastating.

I’ve lost my train of thought.
Some things are just too painful to imagine.
