Day 2986: Missing SisiMama (aka Virginia)

Some days we miss people more than others– that’s my message the world

It’s 2: 41 PM on day 2986 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray read a Bible verse, and do some work

Today I’ve been thinking a lot about Sisi Virginia – my second mommy (she started working for my family before I was born and remained with us till she passed) – it breaks my heart that she’s not here to see what I became (and am becoming) she was such a loving and kind person – she had many homes which we helped her acquire and yet she chose to live in our garage it was the sweetest thing it was like she didn’t want to be away from us even in the evenings…since she was unmarried when my brother was born she use to call him “her husbendo” (not husband but her “Husbendo” ) it was too cute she was so attached to us that when my sister and I were younger she used to wrap us to her back so she didn’t have to be away from us while doing housework… it was made especially beautiful by the fact that it’s something African mothers do for THEIR CHILDREN (she really thought of all three of us as HER children we really felt that…we love and miss her so much I hope she knows that)
