The Best Mother in the world

My mama, my Queen, my Rock, my strength, my heart, my love, my Iron Lady, my lioness, my everything. As tears roll down my eyes, I tremble as I write this knowing why I do. My God, My dear Mother. I miss you mummy.

Words will never be enough to express what I feel and how I feel. My bestfriend is not here. My confidant, you are the first love of my life and the perfect one. Everything you did, everything you are, showed how loving, incredible and amazing God made you. You were perfect in every way. You did everything right and loved with your whole heart. You saw life in such a beautiful and spiritual way, no one can compare. You lived life to the fullest and experienced what only most dream of; you are my superstar. My role model. I know you did not want to leave so soon, but God is the greatest, and I know God is keeping you safe in heaven and you are at peace. I know you are finally with dad; I’m sure he missed you as much as you missed him. Please say hello to Dad and we miss him so much too. I still feel your presence every single day. I still hear your voice, I can still smell you and I know you are definitely still here with us. I also know you are up there in heaven already controlling, demanding and having a wonderful time in heaven with singing and praises. I know how much you did for us ALL, the sacrifices and we love you to eternity. Thank you for showing me how to love, how to be kind, how to be pray, how to love God and how a mother should be. As I told you every day, you are the best mother in the world. If wishes were given, there are still so many things we talked about doing, so many things we wanted to eat and so many places we wanted and talked about going that I wish we could still go and do. I would wish this was a bad dream I would wake up from. I would wish for you to live forever and live to enjoy and see the best the world should offer you. I would wish for you to hold my hand again and walk with me to school, to church or home. I would wish to eat more suya and drink more wine with you. I would wish for you. I will never agree to this reality. I know you are not here in the physical, but I know you will always be by my side as always and forever. God knows why and I can’t question God and I will not.

This one hurts mummy. Your Prince is heartbroken. The pain is there and it’s immense. You will be with me forever. I promise to continue to make you and daddy proud. I love you so much mummy. I know the one thing you would not want me to do is cry, but to make sure to always celebrate you every single day, pray to God, thank him for everything and to cherish all our memories. I know this is not the end and I will see you again, but until then mummy, may your soul rest in perfect heavenly peace.

From your loving Prince,
Ekene
