My first day on earth


I was born on 28th April 2006, in a little room in a hospital called Lister hospital. It is on the Spintex road in Accra, the country of my parents Nana and Vivian. I was born around 8.47am. There was a lot of excitement at my arrival; I think a lot of people were waiting for me.



A few hours after my arrival, my uncle Charles came to visit me and Mum, and came with a little box with lights, called a camera. And flashed the lights in my face!

Later Uncle Bryan and Auntie Theresa also came and brought another camera, and took photos.
