Today would have been my Grandmother's 90th birthday. Today doesn't make a lot of sense to me. This time since she's gone home, 3 months, hasn't made sense to me. It probably never will. More important than my feelings today are my mothers. Today's #blackmothehoodintimesofquarantine feature is my Mother. On her mother's first heavenly birthday I want to share how she's been feeling. And while she has been "keeping it together" for us I see that she is hurting, mourning and trying to figure out how to make this make sense for herself. If you know my mother then you know she is the most compassionate, loving, caring human being on the earth. She has sacrificed everything for her children. She continues to do so for her grands. My mother is an only child. She built sisterhoods with her best friends, who were also only children. They had great adventures in their youth and we have the benefit of hearing those stories. My Grandmother had one wish, echoed over and over again at her memorial service " I want to make sure Tricia is alright." The thing is despite her motherly worry, Tricia has always been alright. My mother in her worst moment is still and has always been ten toes to the ground with faith that can (and has)over mountains. While today we celebrate my Nana, Our Grandmother, Aunt Bunch, we also cover My Mother, Tricia, Ms.Davenport. Happy Heavenly Birthday Mama. The world doesn't make much sense without you. No long stories, just a picture and honest feelings on Motherhood ❤ Black Motherhood 🖤 During Quarantine 💚 Enjoy!
