Late this afternoon, me and my 4 years old daughter went to a shopping mall to buy some personal things and to buy some groceries. While walking inside the mall some men keeps looking and smiling at me and my baby asked me, mama did you know them? and I said no I don’t know them. Why they smiled at you and you smiled back? and I said to her, nothing baby it’s just like being friendly they smile at me so i smile at them too that’s all. While I’m getting my personal stuff, she told me. Mama when I grow up I want to be like you. and I asked why? I want to be pretty like you. I want my hair long and i want to have brown hair color like you, I just want to be like you! And then I smiled at her and said. don’t worry baby when you grow up you will look exactly like me because your my daughter. and she said really mama! One sales lady smiled at us and asked “Madam is she is your daughter?” and I said yes! and she said again she doesn’t look like you maybe she looks like her father and I said yes. and the sales lady told me “your child admire you so much and she is very proud of you as her mother” and I said thank you for your compliments. My daughter looks up to me and I’m happy for that but it makes me more conscious of my actions. At her age that’s the stage of idolizing one person and it just happens that it’s me her mother. I remember when I was same as her age I idolized my auntie the sister of my father so i know her feelings. Being a mother I want the best for her, I want her to be beautiful, loving, charming and sweet most especially I want her to be a good person and a God fearing individual.
