that's sista!!

the fab5 hosted a baby shower for Roli on saturday.. tres fab!

i have known Roli for about 7 years now, she is one of the most sincere, honest and down to earth people i know, she quickly became good friends with us despite the difference in age, some of her age mates/friends chide her still to this day about playing with small small girls. their biggest palavar was our calling Roli her name rather than antie Roli. (at Roli's insistence)

over the past 7 years Roli has seen us thru thick and thin..from an emergency crash pad when a certain someone was thrown out by her shakazulu( that's u udu)even tho she was warned/begged/threatened not to shack up with him. to the place to go whenever we were too broke to pay attention or simply just to raid for groceries. (rofl)i can recall a number of times when she was raided by all five of us in the same week at different times for the same exact items.. one time she met the fifth raider at the door coat in arms,(that would be moi) and said "oya nisho nstore".or the staging place each time we had an owambe affair for gele and jewelries (some of her jewelries are still making rounds)i might disclose details for a fee or maybe not for hush money...
i can't forget her paying for a tutor when a certain someone tried to hide flunking calculus and lost a whole semester!! (shako jiya)what about the way she was always there for a certain drama queen? (the oscar goes to...)

we had a chance to return the favor a couple of times when all her so called friends got married and moved to another planet...
i can say without any doubt that,we learned first hand what it means to have faith in God and what integrity is..
as u can see it was only natural that we host her first baby shower at 39.


from now on, it's sista Roli we have an example to set o.

Sista Roli,we didn't mean to make u cry o,(we all hope it was tears of joy)
thanks a trillion for everything.(yes we saw the faces of all them pantis)
what can i say? hey,u raised us well.
