Five years old. Wow. I've held and loved you with my eyes and my arms for five years. God must love me infinitely to have blessed me with you. Because you're so precious. So special. So wonderful. Not like people say it - but like it really is. You're a wonderful, delightful child. I love you with everything I am, have and hope for. Happy Birthday, Boogie (Rainbow Girl).
Simi prayed for her baby girl, wishing her long life and favour, she also prophesied greatness into her daughter’s life.
I pray that God will never hide His face from you. Your life will be for signs and wonders. You will find favor with God and man. You will prosper in all things. You will live long and you will fulfill your purpose. I pray for you with my spirit, with my heart, with my womb and in the name of Jesus. I love you. I love you. I love you.
Deja’s father Adekunle Gold also took to Instagram to celebrate his baby girl, calling the past five years a period that changed his life.
5 years ago today, you changed my world forever. You made me a father, and everyday since, you’ve made me better.Watching you grow has been the most beautiful part of my life. You get braver, kinder, and more curious every day. Sometimes I just want to pause time and stay in these moments forever. I love you more than anything.
