Dad would have been 72years today We would have had a family celebration, maybe eat out or have the special food delivered to the house. One thing l remember about Dad was that he always celebrated us on our birthday, Growing up the birthday celebrant would choose the hotel or restaurant and it was always fun eating out together as a family. We must have sampled the menu in nearly all the good restaurants in Ibadan Today l lit a candle for Dad and asked God to give me a special birthday gift, Wisdom to grow the legacy he left behind. Sometimes the challenges build up and l feel inadequate I wish Dad was still around He always seemed to know the right action, contact and decision to make. The confidence l have is that God has been good and faithful to the family this past 17months granting us favor, peace, protection and wisdom. I just cant stop thanking him I will sing Dads special and favorite song throughout today "Praising The Lord Always my God is good to me" and the yoruba one "sese ninu mi dun Ayo kun inu okan mi tori moni Jesu ni Oluwa" It is well we will keep the torch burning with God on our side. Happy birthday Dad, I really really miss you It is well. I Thank God for the 70years you spent here on earth and for being my father Much Love Bunmi
