I would like to describe something that amazed me and made me joyous. It happened last year when my birthday was approaching.

I have been thinking of how to celebrate this day in a grand style, but I was short of cash. The money I intended to use to celebrate it was diverted to an unplanned project. I had to accept that I would just celebrate it on a low key.

On D-day, very early in the morning, I was still in the bedroom sleeping. Just then, I had a beautiful sound and music in the living.

I was so curious to know what it was and where the music was coming from that I quickly got up and barged into the parlour.

Then I saw my husband, my siblings, my colleagues at work and trumpeters. One of my siblings was holding a big cake, and my husband was holding a beautiful throw pillow with my picture; I was shocked.

I didn’t know when I started crying because I wasn’t expecting it. The music and merriments continued, and I quickly adjusted to the tones and celebration.

I took pictures, and I cut the cake. It was one of the happiest days of my life, and I won’t forget it because it made me so happy.

Question 3:- What do you think is the most surprising thing about you?

No. I don’t think there is pressure on people to buy gifts. Everything is not about gifts. For instance, personally, I prefer people to call me, send me texts, or chat with me through social media rather than buy me gifts. Some people can buy you gifts, and they may cherish or respect you.

Yes, Nigerians often love to give surprises. I watch couples surprise each other with several gifts on social media. Yesterday, I watched a man build a big mansion for his mother on Facebook. He told the mother that he was taking her to one of his friends’ places, not knowing it was her house. The mother was so shocked that she couldn’t control her tears.

Nigerians love to give surprises like surprise proposals, surprise gifts, surprise parties, surprise good news and lots more.

Question 10:- Do children prefer receiving gifts or spending happy time with their parents?

Children are lovers of gifts; they prefer to receive presents than spend time with their parents. For example, anytime I go to work, and my son tells me he will follow him, I normally give him gifts. He will just change his mind and continue playing. These happen to most children; once you give them gifts, they forget their worries.
