SFS Contest! Picture of the Day Week 31 "
Hello and warmest greetings to all my fellow amiable steemians in this community, it's a pleasure for me to have you all in this amazing and weekly contest; SFS Contest! Picture of the Day Week 31 "
I was busy reading my book inside my room when i started hearing a cry of a baby which happens to be the cry of our neighbor little child, first i decided to ignore and pretended assive i didn't hear the sound of the crying baby because my plan was to finish up with the chapter of the book i was reading before attending to anything else, since i can't no longer bear with the cry of the baby any longer as the noise increases i went out to check out for the baby because the sound was just disturbing me that i can no longer focus on the book i am reading.

Going out i saw our neighbor the mother of the crying baby trying to do some laundry at thesame time she was carrying the baby on her back but the baby refuse to sleep or keep quiet which was making him to cry and disturb the neighborhood, I felt so compassionate for her because no body was there to help her do the laundry and other house chores or even carry the baby for her while she is doing that, since her mom that was helping her just left last week that was how the baby usually disturb and stress her day and night.
When she saw me outside she pleaded with me to help her babysit the baby for a short while so that she can finish up with the laundry and come take the baby back, i quickly accepted without complain because i was having it in mind to do so even before she asked me to do that for her.

I took the baby inside my room because outside was not too convenient for me to stay since i was busy inside reading my books, when we got inside i started by recalling and flashing back to those old nursery and primary poem we normally sing together in the class back then and i sang it for the baby even though i was not that perfect with the song any longer but the sweetest part of it is that the baby was smiling which show signs that he is enjoying it through the smile that comes out of his face when i was singing the poem with alot of joy and the dancing i display that makes him so happy and smiling too hard.
After some minutes the baby started feeling sleepy that was when i knew he wants to sleep then i gently lay him on the bed which i as well lie down too with him and still continue singing and playing with him so that he will not wake up again till he finally fell asleep completely i very happy and impressed because atleast i can continue with my reading without any disturbance.

After sometimes when i was almost done with last chapter of the day, i heard a knock on the door which happens to be the mother of the baby when i open the door she was very happy to see the baby sleeping calmly and she like you are very good in nursing babies very well, she even added by saying that my future wife will not stress herself with the children stress and disturbance and i was just smiling as she was busy praising me for taking care of her baby and thanking me that i really saved her day.
When she left with her baby the smile she put in my face took long to vanish because of those beautiful words she said to me and on the other way round i was also delighted that i am able to put a smile on someone face that day, at least it helps us to connect with one another and also understand other people so don't be too busy to help people when you have the ability and time to do so because no one knows what tomorrow has to offer.
I have finally come to the end point of this amazing contest, special thanks to the organizer @ashkhan and also to the community for giving us the privilege to participate in this amazing contest.
I will respectfully call on the attention of my fellow steemians @simonnwigwe @josepha @pandora2010 to take part in this contest as well.
