Mum always says "You might have more new clothes than I do, but you'll never have more old clothes". I admire the strength of this woman and everything she's been through. She is my first female role model and the ethics and principles that she inbibed in me still remain, not only because she taught them to me, but mostly because she lived by them as well. Be the first amongst women, never feel less of a deserving human amongst men, if you work hard you will succeed, success has no gender if you put in the work, never rely on beauty to take you anywhere it is fickle, and travel.. See the world; are only a few of the things this amazing lady has taught me. Fondly called "King-Woman", I am yet to scratch the surface when comparing my achievements to hers, but believe me when I say I'm working everyday to beat the amazing record she has left me with. My mother is not weak, a push over, lazy, or unintelligent... So I had no choice but to be strong, assertive, hard working and intelligent. This is because my mother was my first role model!! Happy Mother's Day mummy. Love you lots. ❤💋 #DearMama

Dear Mama,
Growing up you made some brave decisions that at the time I did not understand. The older I got the more I understood that everything you did was for the benefit of your children.
Your selflessness, your sacrifice, your words of wisdom, your strength, your support. I pray I can be half the woman you are for my kids.
You are now my mum and my dad, my friend, my confidant, my business advisor and even in the most difficult of times you taught me to turn to be strong and helped me know God better. There is no one like you and for that I know I too am special. I thank God everyday for you.
In all lifetimes I will always love you! ❤️❤️❤️ #HappyMothersDay #DearMama
