I'm an aunt!

I do not have a child. I plan to have one when am in the region of 30 years. My mother thinks this is way out and with what she calls a good reason; I will be too old! really? I don't think so. But that is not the reason why I opened Snippets of a diary today.  My sister gave birth to a baby girl the other day! Am an aunt!!. 

This last few days I have been involved in aunt duties, including baby-sitting a days-old Kristine- thats her name, and taking care of her convalescing mother. Our female kith and kin came to town too to deliver crash courses on BABY. I have learnt many things about babies and mothers in two days than I have in five years! It's about time everyone had a distraction....

Baby could not have arrived at a better time, what with godsend milk promos like buy one packet get one free on the streets!

Color me pink
And why pink color for girls, or blue for boys, am yet to find a plausible explanation to. But pink is slowly becoming the color theme in my life. Heck! I look for pink every time I want to pick anything!
