He Slept With My Cousin Six Months Into The Marriage But That Was Just The Beginning –

treatment he gave me the first time I tried to live with him. So I decided to leave him to his own devices. I had saved the number of one of the girls he cheated on me with in the past. I never got around to calling her.

I even forgot about her existence until I was going through the WhatsApp status of people on my contact. I came across a video on her status. She was with someone who looked like Dan. I opened the video and truly, it was my husband…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

 

The two of them were having a fun time in an expensive restaurant in Accra. This was a man who always told me, “I don’t have money,” every time I asked him for money for our upkeep. I knew he was a lot of things but this was too much.

I texted the girl and introduced myself. She was surprised. “Madam, I didn’t know he is married. He told me he was divorced.” I thanked the girl for giving me that information.

If the man says he is divorced then what was I still doing in the marriage? The next day I gave him his rings and told him, “This is not a marriage. Let’s just end things so you can have the freedom to live your life as a single man.” I thought he would be happy, or at least relieved, but he started acting sad.

He put on the same act that he always did when I caught him cheating. I always fell for it but not this time. I had had enough. He kept apologizing and asking for another chance but it wasn’t something I could do. All I kept thinking about was my mother’s backup stove.

When I was a child, my mum had a metal stove in the kitchen. She cherished it until one day she came home with a new shiny glass stove. She took off the metal stove and kept it in a cupboard. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

After she fixed the new stove, I asked her why she wouldn’t just throw the metal stove away. She said, “Let it be there. It might come in handy one day.

I watched her treat the new stove like a trophy, constantly cleaning it and keeping it shiny while the backup stove sat in the cupboard gathering dust, hoping to become useful one day.

This memory from my childhood reminded me of my marriage. I had become the backup metal stove Dan kept in his cupboard, while he flaunted his girlfriend like the new shiny stove.

He wouldn’t let me go but wouldn’t commit to making our marriage relevant either. It was up to me to set myself free. That’s what I did. We were only married traditionally so my family returned his drinks to him. I have my own place in Accra now.

I am currently in the university while working to take care of my daughter. Let it not be said of me that I chose to be a backup stove when I could be someone’s shiny glass stove someday.

Nicola and Todd Bailey, a British couple from Sheffield, had a cozy life with their four-year-old son, Lucas. However, a deep-seated desire to expand their family was always on their minds.

Nicola, who worked part-time as a nurse at a community health center, and Todd, an experienced real estate agent, were financially secure and eager to bring more children into their world.

One summer evening, sitting on their porch, Nicola and Todd found themselves discussing their future. Their conversation centered on Lucas, their beloved son, and the possibility of him having siblings.

Nicola had been an only child herself and understood the occasional loneliness that came with it. She didn’t want Lucas to grow up alone, and so the idea of having more children resonated strongly with her…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

 

Their hearts full of love for Lucas and a desire to see him enjoy the unique bond of having siblings, they decided to expand their family. Todd enthusiastically expressed his desire to build a larger family with Nicola, who he adored deeply.

The couple spent the rest of that night dreaming about their future children and how they would play together in their garden. Little did they know their dreams would soon become a reality.

The Baileys didn’t have to wait long for their lives to be filled with joy. A mere five months after that heartfelt conversation, Nicola had a dizzying moment. She collapsed to the floor and was immediately rushed to the hospital. While Todd was initially concerned, they quickly discovered the cause of her dizziness – she was pregnant.

Ecstatic, they returned home and immediately shared the joyful news with Lucas. He was thrilled to learn that he would soon be a big brother.

The prospect of having a sibling filled him with excitement, and he bombarded his parents with questions about his unborn sibling. The family was enveloped in happiness, their hearts full of anticipation for the new addition.

However, their journey was not without its challenges. During her pregnancy, Nicola started to feel unwell. She became incredibly fatigued, experienced frequent dizziness, and her body felt unusually heavy.

As a nurse, she recognized that something was amiss and insisted that Todd take her to the hospital. This decision likely saved their unborn daughters’ lives. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

After a series of tests at the hospital, Nicola received unexpected news – she was pregnant with twins. The couple was overjoyed and promptly made the announcement to their son, Lucas. They explained that they were going to have twin sisters and received an enthusiastic response. Lucas was delighted by the thought of becoming a big brother to not one but two siblings.

Nicola’s pregnancy, however, became fraught with challenges. She had to be placed on bed rest, a tough task for someone as active as she was. The safety of both the mother and her twin daughters was of paramount concern, and the doctors ensured that she was in good hands.

Through her prenatal care, the Baileys learned the gender of their twins. They were to have two baby girls, and Nicola immediately knew what she wanted to name them – Harper and Quinn. Their hearts swelled with excitement as they envisioned the future of their family with their two daughters.

However, the story took an unexpected turn 38 minutes after Harper’s birth. The doctor returned to Nicola’s room with a solemn expression and revealed that Harper had Down syndrome, a genetic disorder. Nicola and Todd hadn’t known that their daughter had Down syndrome during the pregnancy, and this news was a revelation.

Though this revelation could have dampened their spirits, Nicola, a nurse with experience in caring for children with Down syndrome, welcomed it with open arms. Her knowledge and experience provided a unique perspective.

She knew that Harper would be unique in her own way and understood that Down syndrome would not limit her daughter’s potential or happiness. The couple decided to raise their daughters equally, ensuring Harper would receive the support she needed to thrive.

Despite the unexpected news, their love for Harper remained unconditional. Her condition didn’t change the way they saw her. Nicola and Todd went on to create an Instagram account to share their family’s journey. It became a platform for Nicola to raise awareness about Down syndrome, dispel societal prejudices, and, most importantly, share the joy of their growing family.

As they journeyed forward, the family embraced the uniqueness of their situation. Their story is a testament to the power of love and acceptance. Harper, Quinn, and Lucas are indeed a unique and loving family, demonstrating that love knows no genetic boundaries.

Nicola and Todd wouldn’t change their family for the world. They are proud of their unique and beautiful family, which has redefined their understanding of love and acceptance.

Chick-fil-A is known for caring about the community wherever the restaurant is located.

Many of the managers hold fundraisers for organizations and people who are in need as well as those who are sick or who have lost family members and need a helping hand.

Meeting someone who is homeless often strikes a nerve to do something to try to help for many people. There are also those who tend to avoid helping the homeless.

One man stumbled into a Chick-fil-A in Tennessee, possibly looking for something to drink or just to get away from being outside for just a few moments.

The manager decided to do something a little special for the man.

When the homeless man entered the restaurant, he wanted to try to get a few scraps that would otherwise be thrown away…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>

 

He wasn’t asking for money and didn’t ask the customers for any kind of assistance.

When he left the restaurant, he had a huge smile on his face because of the actions of the manager.

While the interaction was taking place, a father and his daughter were enjoying a meal at a nearby table. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>

The father made a social media post about the story so that others might be able to see how the homeless are treated and how simple actions can make a difference.

The daughter decided to trade the toy from her meal for ice cream.

As they waited for a few minutes for her ice cream to be prepared, they saw the exchange between the manager and the homeless man.

The man was wearing muddy shoes and looked tired. Most of the people in the restaurant tried to stay away from him.

Soon after the man entered the building, the manager talked to him and explained that he wanted to help. He was given a full meal instead of the scraps that he wanted.

The manager also prayed with the homeless man, touching his shoulder so that he would feel as though someone cared.

For some managers, they could have sent the man away, but this manager made a difference if only for a few moments in time.
