Taking to Instagram to pen a heartwarming message for her daughter, Basetsana said Bontle is the most loving little girl, ” These are the words I wake to and am told every single day…and I mean every single day! I miss you when I am sleeping, I miss you when I don’t see you (I could be just in another room) I miss my Mommy when I don’t see your face! I love you. You are amazing. You are beautiful. You are sweet like candy.”
She said she is grateful that at the age of 40, God visited them with a gift of another beautiful life, “such deep, profound, and pure love is something that I treasure and I live with. What joy, what a gift, what measure of love that has been bestowed upon us. Some days I have to pinch myself.
