Hello Friends and Happy Saturday, I hope you had an enjoyable day.
I am sitting at the kitchen table sipping Ginger tea trying to accept the fact that son #2 is no longer my baby. He and I had planned to go to Best Buy to purchase Dragon Speak software and an external DVD drive for his Notebook. I asked him to take a few shots before leaving and as he reluctantly did, he informed me that we had to be home by 4:00 because his “girlfriend” was coming over. “Girlfriend…girlfriend…did he say girlfriend?”
I was all smiles as he hadn’t told me yet
Huh, what did he just say?
Don’t get me wrong, he is 16 and has had crushes on girls before but this was going to be the first time I was actually going to meet “his girlfriend”, the first time a girl was coming to the house. I know…I know…but I’m gonna need something stronger than this tea!
And he knows that if he doesn’t do the right thing, these will be up his butt!
Just grin and bear it…..

- my God is Awesome
- i look in the mirror and see my mother
- bore but did not raise me
- died before I really got to know her
- feared I would have to care for her in her old age
- grandmother said in order to live a long life you have to treat everybody right and pray
- Mother’s Day will be bittersweet
- not a friend but a fierce protector and provider
- mother never saw her grandsons
- a mother of 2 black males – RIP Trayvon

- slow down you are driving too fast
- look in your rear view mirror
