JOHN KAGWAINI: A LEGEND IN DISGUISE OF A FATHER

There's no love greater than mothers love, and there's no greater sacrifice than what a father does for his kids. As my father’s  daughter – not ONLY  has John Kagwaini taught me to be a princess  but he is the man who taught me  how to ride , my first bike and be the coolest kid ever, he is also my anchor, my friend, my  guidepost and my  role model. 

From getting me  through school troubles, undergoing a bad-ass crazy teen phase all over again to getting overtly protective when you started to hang out with the guys whilst comforting you through heartbreaks and being there through thick and thin, John Kagwaini Has loved me and my siblings  ever-so-more every single moment right from the time he saw us . 

And on this beautiful journey, he not only made me who i am  but also has laid the template for my personal  understanding of who i am as an individual ,self-love ,  the world and relationships.

He has celebrated our minds and our ideas mind, taught me to love ME be confident, self-reliant and at ease in my own skin and sexuality, invest respect to earn it and differentiate between how real men and jerks treat women, negotiate differences with them and handle relationships, he became the sterling example of a gentleman to Me As such, how could he not be but the first man i ever loved not because he taught me the ‘how to,’ but because he showed me how!

For our  baby Brother Charles –dad has been the man within whom his potentials have been mirrored and continue to be mirrored each day and who he can grow up to be. While the bond between a father and son can define who he wants (or does not want) to be, a dad has been a positive person and he has build a good father-son relationship he has broken free of the invincible shell of distant respect to one that is brimming with love, care and sharing. Not only has he made an attempt to bond early with our little brother but he has also helped  Charles overcome the Freudian phase of competition, by standing firm by his side as a friend, philosopher and guide.

By being a role model to us John Kagwaini, not only transcends his conventional role as provider but also embroiders delicate and invaluable patterns of the values that have become our guiding compass for us in our lives when he is no longer around. By injecting a perfect complementary parenting style to the blend that his yang nurture has easily worked with   mommy’s yin care, he has made us grow under the composite whole of  learning what we live, in place of living what we learn!

So Dad Thank you for giving us the greatest gift anyone could give us You have believed in us, You never told us how to live, you have lived and let us watch you do it …perfectly we have   had a hard life, but our hardships are nothing against the hardships that you went through in order to get us to where we started.

I believe that what we have become has been wholly dependent on what you have taught us at  our most odd moments. We have been formed by your  little  scraps of your wisdom. Dad, like any coach, HE has always stressed the fundamentals. He taught us responsibility, accountability, and the importance of hard work.

 

I think that our desire to be better comes from  the very strong, dynamic personality of who you are  we have never ever met a person more fearless and courageous than You  … The thing that we admire most about you dad is your  genuine Christian character. You are a man of real integrity, deeply committed to moral and ethical principles. You are conscientious in all of your undertakings … If we have a problem we know we can always call Daddy. 

Thank you for telling us we are uncommonly beautiful/handsome  and that we are the most precious people in your life. We can fly higher because of you

 

We pray that God will satisfy you with Long life. we love you like X.O.X.O

Happy  Early Fathers Day Johntez

With Love
