The first Christmas I will spend without you and it feels so so empty, you were more of a friend than a father, you were a replica of love, true love dad. I haven't had anyone call me everyday to ask if I have eaten? How am doing and just to hear my voice.... how sweet to recall all those things that mattered to you but didn't matter to me but suddenly are gone and i miss them. You were my best friend, my gisting partner and mum severally will say IT, won't you leave my husband alone? Looooool, she misses you alot dad and there is no one that can feel that vacuum but I know Christ will. You were a soldier, a true believer, a man of peace. Papa you were my support and the only reason I gave up on some habits, today I am a better woman because you taught me to be, was scrolling through our phone conversations and it put so much smiles and tears on my face because I know that I am never gonna have that again, you loved me without conditions dad, you protected me too much now I realise it because all those vacuum are there. I remember the day I challenged you to stop calling me My baby that am all grown and a mother but you said I grown ko, grown ni.....oh dear, your grandchildren misses you dad. Now I wish I had just one more call from you then I will tell you all the things I have to say, it's heavy to accept the fact that you are no more here with us but at the same time, it's relaxing to know that you are in a better place, out of pain and this wicked world, you are with our heavenly daddy. I recall those times I strolled to your place with your grandchildren and we have evening prayers together and you will give a sermon as if it's a large congregation, you were so passionate about the word and that is something I have learnt to do in my home, devotions with a sermon...smiles. I can go on and on but it's time to say Good night dad and see you in the morning, I'm definitely going to miss you each day.
