“It’s because of you that my sense of family and identity became complete. I appreciate you now more than ever,” she said.
In closing, she wished him all the best and thanked him again for everything he has done for their family.
“May this year ahead bring you many blessings in disguise 🎂♥️ We love you so much and appreciate you and all that you’ve done for the family. 😊 Im always praying for overflowing joy to come to you dad!!! Your fifties are going to be great. I believe it!” she said.
