"The moment the midwife said she could see the head of the baby. I think that was the magical word I have ever heard. Coz I knew finally this is our end.

Polycarp said that he could not control himself when he met his son.

I fell on the floor wailing like a small child. Everyone was looking at me wondering what was wrong with me.

I took him and held him on my chest, I cannot forget that feeling. It was the most amazing feeling ever.

Lady Mandy added that when she saw the baby she felt like she had known him forever.

It like I have known you. I could not believe that I was holding someone who I have had conversations with, I have had moments with that were only for us

We held each others hands and As tried and exhausted as I was, I got the energy to keep going. You did well Papa.
