In the previous post I mentioned a huuuuge surprise/gift was arriving at 6.45 am. I can now reveal that this secret was in fact the arrival of my thirteen year old sister, Mimu. At about 4 am lost my battle to stay up all night waiting for Harry so when Mimu called me at 8 am I could barely string a sentence together. It was still a great pleasure to hear her voice without the delays and disconnections that long distance calls are prone to.
Living miles a way from London means that I will not get to see her until Wednesday night but I am so thrilled she is here. My cousins, who were clueless, woke up to a wonderful surprise and I know they are having a fantastic time.
Mimu, who spells her names Mimo (why?), has apparently been reading my blog but today was the first time she left a comment. I usually do not single out comments but I have decided to give one of her comments a special mention.
In April this year I did a birthday post for Mimu incorporating songs from the year she was born (1992). Today she left a comment in my Birthday Countdown post which contained hits from the year 1978 (the year I was born). Apparently I am meant to guess the odd one out. What I want to know is how on earth she found all these songs. Anyway here is the message:
Wangui, My sister you keep me (STAYIN’) ALIVE. When ever I am apart from you I GO CRAZY. You will always TAKE A CHANCE ON ME even when I am at my worst. I can never explain HOW MUCH I FEEL for you. You are one HOT CHILD IN THE CITY. So MOVE YOUR BOOGIE BODY girl you are 27!!!!
I will love you forever big sis mwah!
P.S. All the words in big letters are songs from the year 1978 can you guess the odd one out.
The only ones I can identify are Stayin’ Alive by the Bee Gees, and ABBA’s Take a Chance on Me, though I don’t know if either of them was a hit in 1978.
Any one got any ideas?
the gods/godesses must be smiling on you-am sure you are ecstatic chillin for ur lil sis and am really happy for you.
hot child in the city, 27 are all 78. but for the rest u have to ask her…

A (very) wild guess: I go crazy?
That Drama Queen, I tell you! The stories I had heard from the airport to 82 are enough to fill two books at least
Am sooo happy for you, now that your small sis is around. As for the songs am CLUELESS. Hahhaa its in caps but it ain’t a song lols
Encourage the child to start her own blog - I am sure it will be an education for all of us. Enjoy Wednesday. I am wondering who will talk faster she or your
