Happy Birthday Sholly!

How wonderful for my very first post here to be a Birthday post to you! Wow! You are 39! Amazing! Just Wow. 
Happy Birthday Aburo mi Owon! How I miss you! I can’t even describe the gaping vacuum you have left in my life. I really don’t even know how I’ve coped but you just do, I guess.
Your 3rd Rising is just around the corner and I look forward to hosting these Rising events as one more way to celebrate you and the love I have for you. All the sharing, all the healing, all the tears and smiles and hugs and laughter, all of it will be in your honor, to the glory of God!  
Love you Aburo.
Happy Birthday Sholly Mi.
Bliss on.

It’s me, your Egbon.

P. S. Hug Prof, Mom and Uncle Abiye for me. Hope they got you a cake…. or some Afang.
