Life in a Year: August 2025

August was a beautiful month. It always used to be my favorite month until I had my son in the month of June, twelve years ago… so I guess it’s still being good to me for all the love.

August is the month of my birth. This year, I turned 43 on the 23rd… and I am thankful just like I mentioned in Been so Good

I started the month off with a road trip with my son and my older brother. My dad had been in the hospital, and I wanted to go check on him. He lives a few hours away. So I filled up my tank on the 1st of August and we went to see him. We stayed four days and returned because I had to be back at the office.

While I was in Abuja checking up on my dad, I spent a good amount of time with my three sisters and caught up with two darling friends,  Ronnie and Nguwa.

My birthday was beautiful,  and even though I had my first semester exams for my MBA cut through it, Terver, my husband, did all the right things to make it just my kind of day…time with myself in the coziest place he could get for me…away from home. I was spoiled this year. 🥰

On the 26th. Amaka gave me a beautiful gift. She went and had our long-awaited bakeshop baby. Now I have a reason to smile again on the 26th of August. It was Wazzys birthday.

I spent most of August with my son, doing one activity or the other.

A lot of beautiful things happened in August. Too many to mention.

August was beautiful.
