Best Answer

Ezinma survived childhood, while 9 other of Ekwefi's children have died. Ekwefi is especially glad to have a child who has survived, as she values motherhood. Ekwefi spoils Ezinma, by letting her choose what food to cook and eat, including feeding Ezinma eggs, delicacies normally reserved for adults.

Ezinma means everything to her mother because she is her only surviving child out of ten pregnancies, and she is her hope for the future. Her mother sees Ezinma as a source of pride and strength, and relies on her for emotional support and companionship.

Ezinma is one of at least 10 children of Ekwefi, but is the only one who survives. Ekwefi becomes neurotically worried about Ekwefi when she comes down with iba. Further, Ekwefi constantly spoils Ezinma, and lets her call her by her name as opposed to Nne.
