My dear son, on this day, 17th September, when you celebrate your birthday, I wish to as your mother congratulate you on this special occasion. As a mother, I thank Almighty Allah for giving me this special boy that I have known and ever wish to have as my son.
Your birthday synified a lot of things to me because one of the lesson I learnt from my late parents is not only about having a son, but about having a son that signify happiness, joy, and fulfillment of what having a son is all about. And for me as a mother you have become a symbol of my pride because as a mother who knows the value of having someone whose special heart is close to her chest when you were born, I know that you will become eventually when you grow up the essence of my existence.
Today you have become a man with your attainment of this age but I am proud today that I can also proudly call you my son. You have grown up to be the man which every mother wish to have because the star of your birth have continually remind me that it will take you far. The qualities you had, your level headedness, your educational attainment with excellence and your unquestionable character is a vivid momentum to what a true son should be.
I am happy that you are keeping my dream alive even though that I am still alive . Your sterling qualities is a fillip to my existence that in the next world I will proudly want to have you as a son. I wish you a happy birthday and many better returns and many years of service to humanity and the country at large
I will love u forever
Your mum,
