| Certain memories last a lifetime. For Kwaku Ofosuhene Apenteng, one of the most cherished is from his own childhood. “I remember welcoming home my father, a giant of a man who always carried me on his chest,” he says. “He worked out of town, and I missed him very much anytime he was away.”
That early bond instilled in Kwaku a deep sense of responsibility and love for his own children, whom he raised as a single father. “The opportunity of living with my children as a single parent has brought me my happiest moments as a father.” And for Kwaku, it was the small things that mattered most. The quiet moments that left the most lasting impression. “I loved the experience of raising them, seeing them study, and hearing them play and laugh in their rooms, making fun of themselves.”
Although, today, all three of his children are grown up — and graduated from college — Kwaku recalls the early days with such fondness. “What amused me most was when they came into my room one after the other to say good morning to me. They make me very proud.” |
