My Second Mboch

She was from kao land and didn't know how to read the clock. She had no interest in learning how to read it. This was frustrating. How was she to know when to start preparing lunch for baby, wash baby etc ? Her favourite past time watching cars drive by from our 5th floor "apartment" basement. Surely?. She was the first mboch i ever fired.

My First Mboch

I was 8 months pregnant excited and anxious about my very first baby when i got my first own experience with a mboch of my own (i mean not my mothers). She came one fine evening and left on the very next day!. Reason being she got this persistant stomache and headache and nausea which had no intention of getting better. Not even the medicine recommended by my aunt who was a nurse would make her feel any better!. Little did i know this was gonna be the start of my journey with countless Mboches.
