It is often said that it is rare to see a match made in heaven, not in some home or in family because my parents are just an example of the phrase.

Most often when they have issues or misunderstandings, my siblings and I hope that we can use that opportunity to misbehave, thinking that my dad will fight for us.
My mum seems to be a strict person who does not take time for nonsense most especially for me being the first child. I find it hard to make friends with her. I'm always happy when my dad is at home, because I know he will always ensure I take my time to rest before doing some house chores. There are five of us in our family including my parents.
One thing about my parents is that they love each other, no matter the dispute that may occur in their midst. There is no day my dad will travel without getting or buying my mum, his wife something tangible.Their closeness is just beyond understatement. My mom never hides any secrets from him. I'm just blessed to have them as my parents.
One day, I try to carry out an experiment to see how deeply they trust one another.
After school one evening, I went to my mom's shop. Getting there, she was not in the shop, so I decided to take a nap before she came, because she told me to do something for her. I thought she would stay long before returning. But it shocked me, when she came at the time I didn't expect. She definitely spank me for it, so I got annoyed by it. That evening, a man seemed to come to our shop, he is very close to my mum. I plan something just to get revenge. While the man was discussing with my mom outside in front of the shop, I briefly heard their conversation. Then I picked the man's phone from where he plugged it in for charging. I text my mom's number “i miss my dear, when am I going to have you again". I quickly dropped the phone and ran back to what I was doing. When we got home, my dad was back from work. He was the one who picked my mom's phone to check the unread messages. I was in the kitchen when I heard him call my mom. “My sunshine, someone is about to collect you from me o”. Then my mom responded “ who is that”. “Is mr. Kayode”, replied back my dad, “maybe he wanted to send it to his girlfriend”
I was shocked when I heard that from both of them, my plan failed me. I thought maybe my plan would cause a conflict between both of them, to get revenge for what my mum did to me. Their relationship is what I can call made in heaven and I'm hoping to be just like them. The man that would bring peace and happiness to my heart and life just like my mum and dad is what I wanted.
One day I had to ask my dad “why did you two love each other that much?” My dad replied “she is what I prayed for”.
I turned to my mum when my mum was not there and I asked her the same question. I was shocked with the reply she gave to me. “Your dad was the man I had always prayed for”.
That, I can call God's gift.
What a beautiful phrase: he is the person I prayed for so much. May God always listen to our requests, just as he listened to your parents. Oh, and you were mean, you could have caused a big fight between them. Thank goodness love is stronger than your mischief. Greetings
