Femi Fani-Kayode, a former aviation minister, and his ex-wife Precious Chikwendu set aside their differences to celebrate a special occasion—their son’s birthday.
This past weekend, their eldest child, Aragorn, turned a year older, leading both parents to post heartfelt messages on social media.
Precious Chikwendu took to Instagram to write a loving letter to her son, showing her gratitude to God for the gift of being Aragorn’s mom.
She wrote:
“For real , I am a mom to a 9year old
Somebody pour me wata (in portable’s voice)
I’m a dramatic mom and my boys love me that way so I have no shame expressing my heartfelt gratitude to God
Oluwa ose o!
Alagbra kabiesi
Chukwu nna dalu so’
Onye na edu’m ije Imela
Haaaaaa! It’s been a ride and I can’t tell it all.
I’m thankful, im sometimes overwhelmed but never outweighed by the responsibilities of being your mom Lotanna.
You are special, rare, gifted, sweet, tough, kind, a mysterious gem but mostly the most special emotional kid I know . I’m glad I can correct you, go through your key stage years as a mom ought to unlike today’s world might not care, I’m happy I can guide you through your “private gen whatever you guys are called moments” that one in particular scares my liver sugar . Grateful you have leadership and empathy in you , it would take you places , thank you for being Ragnar’s bestie, he looks up to you and adores you . Thank you for mentoring Aiden and not letting him believe his size makes him superior to his brothers , you have a calm way with Liam and he knows big brother got him . This new age we are working on being totally independent and resilient, I know you remember my story of being the family cook at 9 and understand that I am strict on you being a responsible big brother. I won’t continue my admonition here but know you will alway get tired of my sermons as I intend to speak more in parables as my dad did the moment I turned 9 . You will cope my love and trust mama’s reset techniques to aid you . I love you and I can’t wait to see you become the absolute king you are created to be . Happy birthday my Love. The one who makes my facial muscles twitch with joy ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ @aragorn_ffkjnr”
