”Happy Birthday to My Doc, Reuben Abati, the Nigerian encyclopedia of Journalism, the love I never saw coming. 💎✨️#MYLIFEBUOY

You are the love that came without warning, the calm in my storm, and my partner in this beautiful journey. Having you as my co-pilot in life makes me the luckiest woman alive because I trust my life entirely in your hands. Choosing to walk this path with you is, without a doubt, the best decision I’ve ever made—forget the stubborn side of me that may say otherwise sometimes. 😉

R – Resilient
E – Extraordinary
U – Understanding
B – Brilliant
E – Enduring
N – Noble

These words embody who you are to me, and what your name truly means in my life.

To you, my husband,I know life brings its stresses and demands,but I want you to know how deeply proud I am of you.I see you, I see every effort you make for me and for us all, and I choose you every single day. Being called “Iyawo E” by you is an honor, and I am proud to be your treasure.

In this mixed-up, crazy world, we were made to find each other. There is nothing I want more than to spend eternity with you. It’s me and you, hand in hand, through every season. Life has not been easy, and we’ve both made our share of mistakes, but we ended up together for a reason. We’re learning how to love correctly and to appreciate the things we never fully grasped in the past. So to the world, when you see us happy, I plead with you—let us be happy. We deserve the peace we bring to each other.

You are the yin to my yang Ruby, my hope in a world of chaos. Ruby, you are the whole point, and I hope you know that.

The rest of our story is still unwritten, and we will live it with our arms wide open, embracing all that comes our way. Understanding now that marriage is an assignment, not an accomplishment.

Any woman can bear children, but there is more that must be brought to the table and the journey one shares…

I’m proud of every challenge that life has thrown at me because it brought me to you. I see my mirror in you, a reflection of purity and purpose.

Here’s to you, my pinnacle—my forever, my everything. Happy Birthday, Ruby of Rubies💎✨️. 🥂😘❤️
