Silly Means Stupid…

January 14, 2019January 14, 2019 Akwukwo AdminLeave a comment

…to a chunk of Nigerians and according to its official dictionary definition. The other day, someone referred to my kids as silly. Was meant to be a compliment but I was a tad conflicted. Had to clarify it was innocuous and tell them it usually has a negative connotation in Nigeria… Didn’t mention the official… Continue reading Silly Means Stupid…

Beyond our Language

July 15, 2018 Akwukwo Admin2 Comments

Language, language, language. We have been focusing mostly on language as it’s a key aspect of our heritage. Our kids are being taught and exposed to the Igbo language, Nigerian English (lol), Engil-Igbo (haha), and very tiny Pidgin English. The need to get them to not only understand Igbo but to speak as well led… Continue reading Beyond our Language

Igborize: Just like a Marathon

January 29, 2018February 6, 2018 Akwukwo AdminLeave a comment

So, a couple Sundays ago was the 2018 Houston marathon race and coincidentally, I had worn my 2014 marathon finisher shirt for some in-home workout. Got me thinking about training for a full marathon and how I was able to cross the finish line of ‘no return’. Yeah, no return cause no more marathons for… Continue reading Igborize: Just like a Marathon

Is Overfeeding Child Abuse?

November 10, 2017November 11, 2017 Akwukwo Admin2 Comments

The kids requested peanut butter and jelly (PB&J) sandwich for dinner the other evening… I obliged with generous heaping of peanut butter and jelly spread meticulously on their lightly toasted slices of honey-wheat bread. My 4 year old son, Kehz, usually eats 2+ slices while his 2 year old sister, Azah, barely finishes 2 hence,… Continue reading Is Overfeeding Child Abuse?

Why Add AM, PM?

July 29, 2017August 14, 2017 Akwukwo AdminLeave a comment

A few nights ago, I was seriously trying to get the kids to settle down for bed. You see, they tend to have different preferences for bedtime reading and after reading both kids choices, Kehz was adamant on re-reading his selection. I calmly stated that it is well past their bedtime as it was 9:15… Continue reading Why Add AM, PM?
