I am always around children. I love children so much and you will always see me playing with a child or buying something for kids, because of how much I love them. Then if there is one thing that could draw me to a child is either how gorgeous they look or how smart they are. In this century we find out that children get mature and smart very fast.
One child that amazes me so much is my little brother who is the last child of the family. I was done with my high school when my mom gave birth to him. It was shocking that if I was told that I would have another sibling after high school, I would disagree with that person. Well, it happened and then I had a younger sibling who I was by far older than. I love kids so well so it was very easy for me to get close to him.
Well if there is one thing that amazes me so much about my brother is how smart he is from when he was just 2 years old and had started going to school. He started talking at an early age and could even walk so there was no need to keep him at home. The times we have been together, made me realize how smart my brother is and it seems like every day he keeps getting smart.
When I came back from my National Youth Service Corp (NYSC), I was so shocked at the kind of questions he was asking me. He kept asking me about the place I was posted to and I was so surprised that a child of 8 years could hold a meaningful conversation. Even at an early age, he could read and pronounce words very correctly and easily.
When he was 5years old, we went to a party and then they had to call out children within his age bracket and ask them to spell some words, he was able to spell and when they also kept him with a higher age bracket, he was still able to spell the words they gave to him. Most parents after the party, even came around to ask me what school he attends and what class he was in.
I am also astonished at that fact that he could operate gadgets and also understand it so well. Most grown-ups find it difficult to operate a computer, but then the reverse is the case with him. He knows how to type even if he isn鈥檛 so fast at typing but then he could access certain things on a computer and he is just 8years old. At first, I thought he could only operate a phone but then i was shocked when he was able to operate the computer system at home effectively without any body鈥檚 help.
I think children can learn very fast since their brains are open to accumulating lots of things. Most times I look at my brother and wonder if he isn鈥檛 older than his age or maybe he is just an old man in the body of a child. Either way, I am proud of him and every day i am surprised at how smart he is becoming regularly.
