My baby just look at you. Doing this father thing so effortlessly. ☺️❤️👏🏻
I remember when we were still dating and we had the babies conversation and you expressed your concerns about how you were worried you wouldn’t be a good dad. I remember all the reassuring I had to do. 😩😓🙄But look at you now, bossing it and even giving other new dads tips!!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
I’m so proud of the father you’re turning out to be. Thank you for always reassuring me that I’m doing good. Thank you for always being present. Reading, researching, asking questions. Thank you for playing your part of sharing the load of caring for, and taking care of him. 🥰😍❤️
You’re the best Dad he could ever ask for. He is such a lucky little man for having such a gentleman like you to look up to. You are an amazing example for him to follow and I know he will grow into a man who knows what it means to be a decent human being. We love you, and pray you live to enjoy the fruits of your labour and Love. Amen 🙏
God bless you. And keep you. And continue to grant you grace and favour in Jesus name. HAPPY FIRST FATHER’S DAY MY BABYDADDY @ibrahimsuleimanofficial 🥰😘😍❤️

I always knew you would be a great dad but watching you since we conceived Adéoreòfé has left me in awe.
From being the primary caregiver those first 4 weeks to the night shift and just the way you love and care for him- looks like you have been doing this for more than just 4months. Adeore is especially grateful for your chest.😂😂
I declare that you will grow in this role. You will continue to be a present, loving and supportive father not just to our biological children but to every person who looks up to you. Above all, you will indeed be a perfect representation of God the father. Happy first Father’s Day D squared. We love you ❤️

Disbelief. In the year that the crescendo of the Panasonic began, In its second month on its nineteenth day, I witnessed the miracle of you. The bewilderment of hearing your beating heart for all those hours, your first sneeze, you and I sleeping next to each other, me swaddling you like an experienced midwife.
The wonder of your calmness, your screech at the perfect times for your food, the beauty and kindness in your eyes, your holding of whoever’s finger or shirt that’s feeding you, even in your colic discomfort you’re so precious to behold. To believe all this is still something that the grasp of my imagination is failing at.
My eyes glisten with saltwater at your toothless smile. Victoria Falls too eventually sometimes. You’re just too beautiful. Disbelief, I get to be called father. Disbelief that I have the chance to be better than history.
But my disbelief doesn’t blur the clarity of your laugh, your beating heart on your favourite bed… My chest. I get God a little more now. I understand that embrace now. That I’ve loved you with an everlasting love thing now.
Adebobo, Your crown of grace has created room for other ones to wear their crowns. It will never fall from your head. I have touched more than the hem of the garment of favour. I’m wrapped in ten yards of it.
My gratitude runs over, because you, Adéoerofe Toritseju Chukwuebuka Call me Father

You know? I knew it. I knew the exact kind of father you would be. @bankywellington.
I knew it from the way you take such great care of me and others.
There’s so much I can say about the things you do but I don’t even think it’s necessary. At this point, we all know how wonderful you are. My favourite thing though? My favourite thing about watching you being a father to our son is the fact that it makes so clear in my mind, the love God must-have for us as his children. My goodness! What love that is.You are Present, you are patient, you are kind, you are not judgemental, you are SO HELPFUL and SO LOVING. I knew it, baby, I knew it. That you’d be the ‘greatest dad ever liveth’.
You’ve handled it all like a Pro. We are so blessed to call you our own. To know that Zaiah and his siblings get to walk through life, holding your hands, gives me such peace and such joy.We love you more than we can possibly put into words. Today, tomorrow, Always. May the writer of the Great script of our lives continue to show you the way. May he keep you. Envelope you in his love and protect you. Papa Z. My baby daddy and Zaddy. You make our lives so much more beautiful.

My BestGuy. My BabyBoy. My SonShine. My Reason.
I can’t wait to listen to you ask a million questions, and all the new things I will learn because of you. But for now, thank you for giving me my most impressive title yet: Father. God bless you, Iman. @keonimansuleiman And of course, I can’t be a Father without a Mother to do all of that gestation and breastfeeding madness, can I? Thank you, Sweetcheeks!
