Yup. You guessed right! Ireti spent a Sunday with me so I could get her hair done. We left church together and went back home. I rented two movies for her – Chiwawa 3 and Brave – and ordered pizza for her, too. As I type this post now, Ireti is sitting next to me and telling me what to include in the post.
She wants me to tell you that at the end of the movie, Brave, I cried — and she did not. When she saw me crying, she kept looking from me to the television, like she was wondering if we were still watching the same movie. And then, she asked me, “Aunty Vera, is it really that sad?” See this small, small people oh! She also wants me to tell you that she chose the title of her videos herself. And she wants to now be known – on Verastic – as Ireti Fashionista.
We were done with her hair at about 7pm, and I resisted tried to resist every single temptation to paint her face. But alas, I failed. It wasn’t my fault though. Her sisters, Funmie and Seun, took forever in showing up. So when I asked Ireti if she wanted to play dress up, she was all too eager to indulge me. We even made videos!
Ireti looking FAHH-BUUUU-LOOOOUUUUSSSS
The what-are-you-wearing interview
The what-are-you-reading interview
The shock on Funmie’s and Seun’s faces when they saw Ireti
And finally, a picture of the hair I did: the reason for this entire visit
I took these pictures and shot the videos on my Samsung Galaxy S III phone, and although they have good quality for a phone, I still miss my Nikon camera. Oh, dear Nikon, please come back to me. I love you. That said, seeing all these pictures, can you imagine what I’m gonna do to my kids – boys and girls? *wide smile*
she’s such a cutie
I know. She has too much shakara too. Lol.
OMG! Love the look on her sister’s face. Toooo funny. LOL. She’s cute!
God help your children and give them grace in advance. They’ll become live ‘doll-baby’. Kai. Love the eye make-up.
Her hair looks lovely. It’s so difficult finding someone who does hair well where I live. Well done 🙂
Ani, I have been saying the same prayers for my children, for God to give them grace in advance because I might be so playful with them that a person may not be able to figure out who is the mom and who is the child between us. You love the eye make-up, really? I don’t like it too much cause I was in a hurry when I was doing it. Next time, we’ll be more relaxed, hopefully. I can’t remember the last time I did hair, but I was just helping Funmie out. I’m really slow at doing hair, and I’m limited in the styles I can actually do.
Wow!!! I love this,Ireti is so Adorable……….. As for you Vera,well done! Funmi asked Ireti what she was doing? Do u need her to spell it out to u? I bet u dont,whether u like it or not,she’s taking over and she rocks always. Love You Darling.
