Dear Daddy - O'funlola Boluwakole

Dear Daddy,

I have many things and too many reasons to thank You for. When I consider how much You have done for me, I cannot thank You enough.

Daddy, You know how You make me feel. How I feel when I'm short of words to express my love. You know how I enjoy dancing with no music just because I am short of words to say exactly how I feel. I never really have been good with words anyway, so I dance to You to express my affection for You.

I have tried everything else, I have done and undone but nothing is as sweet as You. Even when I am unfaithful, You love me still. You are the perfect lover anyone can ever ask for. When You scold or correct me I know it is because You love me so much. Even Your word says You correct those You love.

So when You are silent, I get really worried because at that time I feel like Your love is dwindling (though I know that is impossible). You matter to me more than anything or anyone else in the world. I always itch to hear from You and love it when You speak. You fill me with joy and gladness.

Thank You for blessing me with a beautiful family, they are the best in the world; even with all our intricacies and differences. Thank you for my lovely daughter too. I look at her and I wonder why You ever thought to give me such a beauty as a child. But it is to me a proof of Your love and most importantly, Your mercy.

I learn a lot about You from my relationship with her. Been a single mom can be very tasking and demanding most times, but her smile always light up my world. And I know You love me as much and even more. Always watching me so I don't fall. And when I do, You lovingly tend my wounds and wipe my tears.

Thank You for being my number 1 and my all-in-all. You are the best Lover I could ever have. I love You with all my heart. I cannot even love You to the moon and back because You are farther than the moon. :-D

Your baby boo,

Funmi B.
