I Celebrate Dad
An Open Letter to my Dad.

Dear Dad,
I still remember the first time I saw an aeroplane fly across the sky above our house. I was so excited, full of questions and some of them downright silly but you never made me feel silly. You always answered me with patience and calm.
I asked, “Where is the plane going?”
You smiled and said, “Ilu oyinbo.”
And when I asked where is that, you replied, “America, the capital of the world.”
Then, without thinking, I said, “I want to be the First Lady of America.”
Everyone laughed, said it wasn’t possible but not you.
You looked me in the eyes and gave me something I’ve carried ever since, belief. You said my dreams were valid. That I could become anything I wanted, if I put my heart and mind to it and that moment planted a seed in me.
You’ve always been my number one supporter, quietly helping my dreams take flight. You never shut me down. You corrected me with love, guided me with wisdom, and raised me in the ways of the Lord.
Dad, you carry so much weight on your shoulders, yet you make it look light. Your love for me is so complete, so unconditional, it taught me to understand the love of Christ in real terms.
Your heart is bigger than anything I know. I’ve watched you care for widows and orphans like they were your own. I’ve seen you give out of a small salary, sending children to school who aren’t even yours, just because you believe in goodness.
Even at 71, you amaze me. The way you use social media, how agile and sharp you still are. You’re an incredible man.
Thank you for every sacrifice, every prayer, every sleepless night. Thank you for treating me like royalty. no wonder I still act like a baby sometimes.
You’ve given me a love I will never outgrow.
Thank you, Daddy.
With all my love,
Temilade, Omo oba.
