To The One I Call Love: Happy Birthday, Boo!
·
In the early afternoon of June 24 this year, i had just finished this argument over the phone with him. In anger and frustration at how bull-headed and stubborn one man could be, i had "announced" to my colleagues and whoever cared to listen that my husband was for sale! i was still spoiling for a fight even as i heard his car pull in that fateful evening. Then came the knock, a few minutes later, that informed me that my husband, the very one i was ready to "sell", had been accosted and taken away by three armed men just as he was alighting from his car.
For a few minutes, i didn't quite understand what i just heard. When i did, i collapsed....literally! At that moment, and for a few hours until my husband came home, i experienced a miniscle of a widow's thought process.....its not pretty! The anxiety, the uncertainties, the fear, but mostly, the regrets ( i should've not argued with him; i should've told him i loved him......)
And so, today on his birthday, i just want to remind him how much i love him and to appreciate him. He may be stubborn and strong-willed in a way that gets my goat sometimes, but he is my husband, the sweetest guy i know, generous to a fault. He loves in a way no other has (well, except God)! He is also an amazing father.
To my boo, my signed-sealed-delivered-all-mine hubby, the father of my children, my rock, my pillar of strength, my friend, my gossip-partner, my FS, i say HAPPY BIRTHDAY. My prayer for you today: No plans of your enemies shall ever find you...not even remotely; you will always remain a person of reckon amongst your peers and may God continue to bless and protect you. It is, and will continue to be well with you....
I LOVE YOU, TODAY....ALWAYS!!!!

Happy birthday to Uncle Eee...wishing him God's best today and always!
These are the best words I've heard in life. I think I might need to memorize them and make it the driver of whatever i do going forward. B I love you totally and would never give you that opportunity of putting me up for sale again. Like I told your parents (wedding Vote of Thanks) and like I keep saying, you are the best gift any man can ever wish for, the best mum I have come across, the world’s “bestest” partner. I keep thanking God that sent you and your parents that brought you into the world and most especially YOU for agreeing to be my best friend, partner, companion, mum, I can go on and on. Thank you so much love and keep being you
