“Happy 7th anniversary to me and my family
My beautiful OBA2018 that GOD DID
It started like a gist when we decided that we wanted to grow old together, nurturing everything we have together. Lawrence @okikiafolayan, you said Agbeke. I am a simple man who just wants to live every day of my life freely doing what I love doing best. Still, I promise you peace & you will forever be happy every day of our marriage. You have done that and more, baby.
I wake up every day, blessing the womb you came from because you are indeed my Superman.
Your love fills me up completely
The one GOD handpicked for me
A Love So Peaceful
Seven years of us
of laughter, quiet strength, and morning light.
You love me in a way that softens storms
and makes room for my wings.
With you, I’ve found not just a partner,
but a peace that blooms like wildflowers
unrushed, unwavering,
sweet and strong.
Thank you for giving me love that lifts,
and for standing by as I grow into
everything I’m meant to be.
Here’s to forever,
to more years of flying together.
Today, I pray that God give us long life to enjoy all we have been working for.
Thank you, Almighty GOD, for giving such a peaceful man and a happy family; it can only be you”.
