I had an awesome weekend with my sons!
My older son, Sai was sick. I cuddled him and spoonfed him cold fruit because he said his throat was hurting. It felt so good to nurse him. We also went to the St. Patty’s day parade and had a blast.
Before they left we watched movies, one in particular, an old time favorite of mine called BeBe’s Kids! Remember that? LOL All day long we kept repeating jokes from that cartoon and laughing.
The BEST part was when I explained to them about my upcoming project about removing the fear from women. At first, they were against it but when I explained that I have to do this, to help women, they relaxed and went along.
I bought a posterboard for them to draw on to show their support. They made this sign:
I’m going to use it as I blog about my experiences. As long as I have their support I’ll be okay. This will affect them the most because during the time I am homeless I won’t have a place for them to come and see me. I have less than a month to gather support for this venture and plan out the lessons I want to teach.
“Mama, you’re gonna become famous!” my son Solomon said.
I laughed. “Maybe. If women see me doing this, their fears will be broken and they can go after their dreams, and hopefully this will lead to more success for my website and I’ll finally find my place in this world as a journalist and a speaker just like I hoped I would.”
My sons made me smile so much. When I asked them if they missed each other during the day they laughed and said No.
“But you guys aren’t in the same grade so you have to go the WHOLE day without seeing each other,” I coaxed them.
“Yeah but we see each other at lunch,” Solomon, my 8 year old said.
“Do you? Do you sit together at lunch?”
“I sit with Sai and his friends.” Solomon announced proudly.
What? “You let a 3rd grader sit with you and your 5th grade friends?” I asked Sai.
He shook his head.
“Do they ever tell you to leave?” I asked Solomon.
“Mm Hmm. They do! But I don’t leave. I sit right there.”
“And what does your big brother say when his friends ask you to leave?”
“He says’ ‘He can sit here if he wants to.’ “
My eyes lit up!
“For real Sai?” I’m about to cry with happiness.
Sai rolls his eyes and denies it, “I don’t say that.”
“Yes he does!” Solomon calls out.
“I love how you take such good care of your brother!” I tell my 10 year old.
“I don’t say that,” he says.
“Yes he does!” Solomon assures me.
They’re awesome!
