I Remember when your mother said she was pregnant 😂🙏
I was Damn broke ✌️
But something in me said “Tell her to keep it”
I told her and she did
Untill today I owe your mum and God will make me pay her back even though we went thru stress to get here
Now she is like a bestie to me 🎉✌️😂
She calls me king 👑
She call me Daddy
I have forgiven her and she has done same too
Even tho we can’t be together we have found a way to make you a happy child.
Say thank you mummy everyday because you have a very sweet mum ,caring and respectful…
