The promised

What is that dada? Well, my child, that is how Lela fed.



Thula got to see Lela (Lay-la) and she was ecstatic! She was gleaming with joy. And rightly so (and by the way, this is Stuart not the super blogger Elaine. She is kinder indisposed right now :))



So, it's Lela Lindiwe Mushala and the little chubby cheeks is coming home Thursday. No, I did not pick Lela, Elaine did. I thought she was going with Lindiwe. Lindiwe rightly means, "We have waited for you." Which we have...seeing Thula is 5 and all and Lela was a week and a half late (besides, who says it has to be exactly 9 months). But I love Lela. She is definitely a Lela; Just like Thula is definitely a Thula (Thula was almost a Lindiwe and that would have been a shame)



And as for the meaning of Lela, well, my blogger wife will tackle that one. Am sure Blessings (yes, my brother’s name is Blessings) will be proud, or at least honored. He is a good kid, but I aint selling my rights for any pottage :)

Where was I? Oh ya Thula and Lela.
Thula also got some goodies (the whole ‘make sure your other child does not feel that life will cease to revolve around them’ thingy. But who knows, maybe after the second you are like “forget that!”). She not only got Enchanted Blue-Ray (Elaine’s has brainwashed of my kid to be all mushy…I would rather she got the Transformer movie or something with stuff blowing up or Matrixy. Because that way, I get to enjoy it too!).
She also got Chuck E Cheese's and Dunkin Donuts (hey, the Thula weighs less than a paper, and she earned it too…and this is the Northeast, we have a Dunkin Donut on every corner because America, runs on Dunkin…more like on Coffee). If only my parents did that, I might be a better man today :). (not the Coffee part, the make sure your other child does not feel that life will cease to revolve around them’ thingy). But it’s not like am not already forced to watch The Little Mermaid, Bugs Bunny, Tom and Jerry (I love Tom and Jerry!..Bugs bugs me but I have to watch it if Thubs asks me). And being the pedant that I am, I digress.

And that is that. Lela is here and we could not be happier. It is our responsibility to rear these children of our Heavenly Father in ways that will lead them back to Him. There is no happier dad (and mom) than me and my sweet bride.

Hey, this blog thing is not bad at all (but I aint doing it...except for special occasions, and this is a special occasion).
