In the last two weeks my son (he is 3 yrs and 7 months), has been asking me to buy him cooking tools. He asked me everyday and even picked one from the racks in the mall. I had to return it because it was all pink and girlie. This weekend he made me promise I would get him one, “Mama, I really want to cook, please buy me a pot, and plates, and ………” he said. I knew I really had to oblige him even if it meant buying the pink girlie set. You should have seen the look of glee on his face when I presented him this set. He has been singing all sorts of cooking songs. This is what happens when your mother is Òunjè Aladun.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the wonderful mums in the world.
