Steemit Engagement Challenge Season 2 (Week 2)| Introduce Your Family - Tell us about your Parents, wife, husband, kids and other Family members

My family and I

Hello dear friends and fellow steemians, it is time for me to take part in this amazing contest by SteemAlive community. I had received a lot of invites to take part and now, here I am to introduce my family to you all.

Family is a group of two or more persons who are related either by birth, marriage, adoption. They love each other no matter how far apart they may live. I have a very big family because of where I come from.

My father married 6 wives and all gave birth. My mom also give birth to 6 of which I am the last.

I am married to a family of 8, 6 siblings and their parents, my husband is the second child but first son in the family and he was the first to marry me into the family and as such I become the first daughter in-law.

I love them all and will wish to introduce them all to you but I will rather choose to introduce some in this contest.

My parents are late and as such there is no need telling you about them but there pictures are below

	my late Dad, Chief Okoko Awo. A great farmer before his demise in 2001
	my late mum, Madam Lydia Okoko Awo. She was a farmer before her illness and finally died in 2013

My dad died while I was in secondary school while my mom died a year and 3 months after I gave birth to my son.

Next are my 2 Brothers. I will like to introduce them to you.

	Daniel Awah Uzaru. He is my Mom's second son. He lives in the United States Of America with his family at the present but he comes back almost every 3 years. He works secularly to care for his family
	Chijioke Okoko Awo is my mom's 3rd son. He lives in Lagos Nigeria with his family at the present. He is a business man that deals on a lot of things. He has an outlet for frozen foods, groceries and for kids, men and ladies footwears
	Myself, Mrs Nwankwere Ngozi Enyinnaya, the last of the six children of my family. I currently reside in Uyo, Akwaibom State Nigeria with my family. I am a steemian at the moment

As siblings, we didn't have the opportunity to live together at the same time with my parents because Before I was born, some of them were already away to search for greener pastures. I myself didn't spend much time with my parents as my aunt took me to Anambra state at a tender age where I started schooling from nursery till primary 3 before I came back to my parents. By then, only I and my elder sister were with my parents while all had left for the city. However, I got the opportunity to live with all of them separately at one point or the other and they all took care of me. I always travel to their houses during school vacations before I finally moved to Umuahia in Abia State and finally to Aba where I found my soulmate, Mr Enyinnaya Nwankwere.

I am going to introduce my family after I got married below

	I and my husband, Mr Enyinnaya Nwankwere known as @benton3 here in steemit. We both live in Uyo with our kids. He is a steemian and a cryptocurrency trader.

He is a student in primary 5 who is about writing his common entrance examination that will take him to the secondary school by September this year. He is also a steemian who enjoys drawing, cooking and playing games

_{During our 14th marriage anniversary}

What Special qualities do you like in each family member

My husband is hardworking and caring. He is also loving.

My daughter likes acting like a mother to her brother. Sometimes I wonder if she is a child or an adult. She cares for everyone and loves entertaining us with her stories. She is intelligent

My son is the baby of the house. But he likes working alongside others both in cleaning, cooking and washing. He can also be very funny. He is intelligent and loves critical reasoning.

Mary is very hardworking, caring and loving. She takes my kids as her siblings. She is obedient and funny as well.

Have you ever been helped in a special way by a family member? Tell us your story

In so many ways, I have received special help from all my family members

Before I got married, my two brothers I mentioned above saw me through from my secondary school till my second year in the polytechnic.

They all cared for me to the point that in the school, I don't think about how to pay fees or buy school materials. I only concentrated in my studies.

My mother-in-law has been very helpful to me. She takes me as her own daughter. We all know that when a woman gives birth, she is always taken care of by her mother but when I got married, my mom was already sick that she needs someone to take care of her. Because of that, I wondered who will care for me when I put to bed. But guess what? My mother inlaw was always there for me from the first day I put to bed till about 2 months afterwards. She did such during my first delivery and second. She will do everything that is needed to ensure that I was strong after giving birth before she leaves. And she will still call regularly for directions on matters concerning the kids. Before my sisters will come she has already done everything. I am very grateful to her for that because it's not every mother inlaw that can do that.

Who is your funniest family member?

My son, to me is the funniest because all of us can be funny but he, he can mimic everything you say or do in a funny way. He can reason out something that you can't even imagine.

Tell us any other thing you wish about your family

My family is the best I have. We listen to each other, we worship the same God which makes problems to be resolved as quickly as possible. We go out together and encourage one another. We enjoy travelling as a family but if one member should travel, he or she will always yearn to be back as soon as possible because we cherish each other.
