Mom Week - Day 4

As a kid I didn’t understand mom's tardiness to school ceremonies or performances.  At my eighth grade continuation as my classmates were embraced with long hugs and words of encouragement from their parents I stood there alone waiting in anticipation to catch just a glimpse of her to calm my nerves. It never failed however, close to the end of the program, in that still quiet moment of unscheduled silence I would hear her voice yell out, “Love you Niecey! That’s my girl! Yeah!”

Sometimes I close my eyes and go back to those moments. Where mom steals the silence to make known her presence and her expression of love. 💕😌😊💕 #missingher
