Dear Mama



My Mother passed away 7 years ago this WEEK and it’s really difficult because it’s very close to her birthday so this is a melancholy (Nana’s favorite word) time for me....


I thank GOD for my FAMILY! They have my back, front and sides and this weekend let me RELAX for a minute. We took JJ to the Festival and he enjoyed himself and then celebrated Eboni’s birthday and even though she and Bert have their OWN 3 kids  EVERYTHING be about JJ even Nani was like “I got him” and pushed him ALL day on the swings and that’s Angel and Virgens daughter who’s like 6 months older I think lol. 


When my Mother died I KNOW she KNEW Aunt Colette was going to BE just like she is to me EVERYTHING. NOBODY can take your PLACE Ginny but AUNTIE and Aunt Colette DO things just like you COLLECTIVELY. Aunt Darlene, Aunt Rosalie, Auntie S. (“Don’t SING/RAP it Kim SPEAK it) Shewana, TATILLA ,Titis Vanessa and Lisy, Rita, Talitha, Jaime and Jami, ALL the KIDS....AND Uncle James gonna always get us HOME safe. Uncle Ron is going to ALWAYS make sure we have what we need because he’s bringing it to ME...Uncle Sam is ALWAYS gonna CHECK my Homework 💪🏾and Rindy is going to ALWAYS talk some sense into me LITERALLY at times. 


This year is SO different because Gary is GONE. But you KNOW Tab(you and Daddy’s Fav) lives in AZ so we made plans and I’m thankful for the connections I forged in my life. You had some GREAT friends. I’m a go see your best one with God’s Grace. I may be 16 years late but I’m a make it....


She ALWAYS told me “Trust HIM Kim” and I DO! HE KNOWS the plans He has for ME. I miss you both so much but You were not a CRIER! You were the most independent, unapologetic and BEST Mother I have EVER MET. 


I digress-I’m so READY for Spoken word-The fact that you were telling me to do it since “Love Jones” came out just makes it even more poignant..I MISS you so MUCH and I promised Bert no TEARS but I’m SMILING through them because my baby that you handed me from Heaven with a kiss and a smile said “turn it off” tonight soooo.....❤️❤️❤️ #ChessNotCheckers

School Days

Last Friday I was getting my nails and feet done with JJ. I try not to bring him with me but as a single mother I do what I have to do. My day one came in the shop and was talking with us. Like she has known me since David was a little boy going to 197. She was getting a pedicure on her break. She kept JJ entertained while I got my nails done even though she could of been bounced...she went to the store for him and got him a snack and a juice. It’s been on my mind because she gave me a recommendation on a school in our neighborhood for Jermaine. I didn’t even know about it and neither did the Specialist or his teachers....He currently has in-house services 5 days a week and is thriving. He needs to be in an environment with his peers so he can have a great quality of life. I was apprehensive to send him far away in other parts of Queens and Brooklyn that was recommended and although I LOVE my TEAM home based services take a lot of coordination and patience...this will add more balance...

You’ve Got Mail

When we were driving home last night I was thinking about Mommy as we passed her old job the post office. When she was off and we drove by anyone that was working their shift she would say “Hey Audrey, Hey Brina, Hey Jeanie....”my friends (Michael, Daniele, Kim, Vicky you know my REAL friends) KNOW when we went on trips I would say “my Mother works here” I worked there when David was little and I hated it! I would be so LATE so they could fire me-they even had a meeting that I walked into LATE about my ASS. The supervisors were looking at the bitches that was complaining like” that’s Gwen’s Daughter GTFOH with that BS! i used to go inside and sit in the cage with Aunt Jeanie for hours. They let me work like 14 hours a day. I bust my ass for the first 8 and then would go walk around with Mommy or somebody lol. Sit in the cafeteria with Aunt Stephanie... My Mother worked nights so her holiday started early...my Mother worked overtime for 2 months straight EVERY year m, EVERY day so t...
