Journal of Babida the lumberjack - after marriage (ten months later)
So this afternoon, I became a father for the first time. What an incredible feeling it is! The best present that my wife Suzie could offer me.
As the sun was shining amazingly on Okunde, she gave birth at the village dispensary to a bouncing baby boy that looks just like me. He is undoubtedly my spitting image.
Right now, the toddler is sleeping in his crib that I made myself from the best ebony I found in the bushes behind our imperial villa.
Since I have been Governor, I haven't been chopping wood but for my son, I had to make an exception.
After all, I will be a lumberjack forever. That's something that is in my DNA. Surely I will pass on this family heritage to my heir…
Umm, I'm still thinking about his name. Let's see what the ancestors will reveal to me tonight in my dream.
My wife Suzie is also dozing in our marital bed so exhausted she is after the long pregnancy and then the baby's delivery.
