Rollin With The Homies

I have two homies that really crack me up. They’re so much fun, so entertaining and they make me look good when we go out on the town.

One is 2 years old and the other is 4. They’re my sons.

It’s great having boys! When the weekend comes, I plan activities for us and we all get dressed up. I’m looking cute and they’re looking so handsome with their fresh white sneakers and shorts sets. We all put on our sunglasses (spiderman and the hulk glasses for them) and we step out and go to the mall or out to lunch or wherever and I become one of those Mama’s that I used to see out with their kids.

It still amazes me that I’m a Mom and they are my two little men.

Last week I was in the nail shop getting my feet done and I had to play the Mama role and give them my evil eye so they’ll behave. It was so funny! I’d be a great actress.

I get to say all the stuff my Mama used to say to me:

Don’t make me come in there!
Ya’ll betta sit ya’ll behinds down!
Do I look like I’m playin with you?!
Betta carry your behind to bed, NOW!
No, you CAN NOT have anything else to drink.

I squint my eyes, roll my neck and stand with my hands on my hips- snap my finger and point at what I want them to do. “PICK UP THE CLOTHES, NOW!” I have authority! LOL!

Then I go round the corner and laugh. he, he…

And Mamas get special treatment too. Don’t think it’s just the single ladies who get the free stuff. When I go out, someone always holds the door open for me. Extra toys for the boys. I even get offers for free food. Once a man said to me after looking me up and down, “Hell I’d work three jobs to take care of you and both them boys. Just gimme a chance!”

I laughed and smiled at him as I pushed my boys in the shopping cart.

Motherhood, by any means, is a beautiful thing.

I pray you all get to be as blessed as I am.
