Even though we were not born in the same family, God knew he had to give me a little sister one way or another, so he gave me Rue. Both Rue, her brother and mum and dad welcomed me with both arms and with them i gained another family. We are sisters to the point that if i have a problem and Rue knows she cant fix it, she tells her mum and mum handles it or comforts me the same way she does for Rue.
Rue lights up any room that she walks into and her big personality matches her big heart. Rue never stays down for too long and this is one of the things i love about her. She inspires me to try and do the same. When things dont make sense i phone Rue and she always picks up the phone no matter, and she always makes it make sense!!. She is there in good and bad times. Rue and i have been friends for what feels like forever. Despite being younger than me Rue teaches me a lot about life. This last year, every time i speak or see Rue she asks me "how is wedding planning." Well guess what Sis, we made it !! & I cant wait to have you my side like you have been for the last 11 years ♥
Olivia never ceases to amaze me or make me laugh. She is funny, smart & witty.
She has such a wise head on her shoulders for her age because some of the things she comes out with you can only laugh and wonder how she even thought of it. I look forward to watching her grow. She is a breath of fresh air and she brightens any space she walks into. That’s why I can’t wait to have this little shining star as my flower girl, lighting up the way for me and making me laugh along the way ♥
Mr Happy
He is only best man because I was best man at his wedding!
Jokes aside, there isn’t much I have been through that this guy does not know. Which truly speaks volumes in terms of how much we are invested in each others lives - a friend who became a brother. Some of the best moments in my life Peter has been a part of - university and he has also been there when the tough gets going. but one thing about Peter, he will always be optimistic to allow the tough period to not last. From helping me learn how to drive using his own car to helping get jobs he has always been there for me.If he has to stop doing what he is doing to help me with an issue, he will do which highlights the nature of Peter's personality - a true gent and a true friend.

Sanjay and I have known each other for close to 20 years now. Having attended the same high school we both took a liking to basketball thus becoming friends.
Sanjay is one of the smartest people I know - someone who has the ability to work hard and also play hard - thats why I call him Mr Daredevil, he takes a lot of risk but they prove to be worthy. Sanjay is someone I really relate to as he is someone who allows me to loosen up a bit as sometimes I can be a bit of an overthinker. Although he is one of the most stubborn people I have ever met! I truly value my friendship with Sanjay has he has never steered me wrong in any regard has always been there for me whether thats giving life advice or driving me home at 3 in the morning - thank you.
Mr Cool -
My not so little brother.
Denzel and I have been in each others lives from the moment we could speak. We have lived together and we have disagreed and agreed on a lot thats why i know we will be brothers for life. I truly appreciate Denzel for the sense of responsibility he has brought to my life in knowing i do not want to let him repeat the same mistakes as me so i had to set a good example being the elder one. Even though now he occasionally gives me advice!
in times of need we have always been able to lean on each other and thats a testament to the way we grew up sharing toys, food and all the things family share. Therefore why i will always value Denzel.
Mr Marvellous
Tomi has been such a God sent of a friend to me - someone I cannot fault in how he is as a person and as a friend.
Tomi and I have known each other long time from being in the same classes at the age of 16 to now working together. Tomi is such a motivation to me as he inspires me to be better each day that is academically to professionally. He has always extended an olive branch toward me to help me with all that I ask him, and the one the I will never take for granted is the fact he has always made time for me. One thing I will never take for granted with Tomi is the fact we have never engaged in an argument because of the fact I believe how we know where we stand within our friendship. The nature of Tomi's ability to work hard and to sacrifice is something I have taken from him which is why he is Mr Marvellous.
I think the saying of you choose your friend's really rings true when it comes to Timi. We met whilst studying in Preston and I have to truly say he has been a blessing into my life. I say this because we have lived together, worked together, travelled together and we have so much in common from our unfortunate undying support of Man United to gaming. I am truly grateful for the manner in which Timi has supported me when I have needed him in these last 10 years. He has gone out of his way on numerous occasions to be there for me but he is the adventurous one as whenever I speak to him I have to ask if he is in the UK! He has introduced me to the finer things in life which he has shown all things are attainable through hard work inspiring me to also work hard.
Mr Wise
We nickname Daniel the oracle, because of his ability to be the voice of reason, logical and seeing the bigger picture with everything.
Daniel and I have known each other from when I was in high school and even then, up until now he has taken on the role of a protective older brother toward me. I appreciate Daniel for this as he helped me navigate university, relationships and aspects of adult life all together. Daniel is a person who puts himself second when it really matters and he is very pro active in his planning and actioning, no wonder he is the successful project manager he is! This is one of the many aspects I draw inspiration from Daniel - such a positive influence in my life I am grateful for, always wanting the best for me.
