Hello friends!!

Am so excited, can you guess why?

I just realized that nothing ever works without consistency, persistent and hard work.

You must have heard those 3 words before right? But for me I have not only heard those words, I have seen those words real in the lives of people even here on steemit.

And one of those person's that these words are evident in her life is @ngoenyi, founder of steemkids and parents.

How she has been pushing on this platform, and has successfully made the community a home away from home. And today the community is celebrating her 2 years anniversary.

The big occasion was announced here on steemit and on our united Africa group on Whatsapp. I marked my calendar and didn't want to miss the occasion.

Even though I don't live in the city where the occasion was held. Mrs ngoenyi carried everyone along by making an alternative provision for those who can not make it to her house which is the venue. She provided a link to Discord channel where we all could join

At exactly 2:50pm Nigerian time, I joined the anniversary celebration online through the discord. I was so excited to see beautiful faces of great steemians.

There were some steemians that also joined online like me. I saw some faces I have not seen before. I saw @patjewell an amazing woman I cherish so much that has impacted my life in a short time. Even though her network had some issues, she stayed put till the occasion ended. At a point she used only her audio.

Another great steemian that connected online which was my first time If seeing him was @yousafharoonkhan an able professor back then when we had crypto academy lectures and homework. Oh those days were beautiful.

He kept smiling at us and showing off his kids and house to us. He was excited to see our faces, he encouraged us to continue.

Other steemians who connected online was @xkool24 @simonnwigwe @josepha @ninapenda @chiabertrand @vickyson @chibuzorwisdom

Our smiling faces	we were so excited

The occasion began as Mrs ngoenyi shared a story behind the creation of the community. She told us that it was on one of her assignments of crypto academy that made her create the community when professor @yousafharoonkhan asked that we show steps to creating a community.

Other steemians joined on ground for the occasion, prayers was done, down to cutting of cake, toast, music, refreshment and picture session.

Like I said before @ngoenyi would have just abandoned the community after she created it for the purpose of the assignment but no she took it up..And her hard work, consistency and persistence is paying off. I celebrate with her.

They had enough to eat and drink but we online just watched the occasion. But all the same we all celebrated together.

Some of those present online were @mesola @okere-blessing @bossj23 @vudeme123 @manuelhooks @benson3 and the rest.

If there was anything I learnt it would be to kill procrastination. Imagine if the founder of steemkids and parents decided to keep procrastinating starting up the community after she created it?

She took a bold step and today that bold step is two years old and has impacted lives on this platform. So whatever you desire and want to achieve, stop waiting for everything to fall in place before you do. Take your first step.
