Grandpa!
Technically, I guess they are right when they say that I am a Grandpa now. If all of these youth that we have been caring for so intensely call me “Daddy”, then yes, their children would have to be my Grandchildren. WHEEEEEWWWWW…What a mouth full there. Our YOUTH having CHILDREN.
My Mercy has ascended the Ocean Breeze hill with her 2 month old Son. I called for her since I knew that she would not come up on her own. When our youth feel that they have disappointed me, they will not come up to see me; even if they are in need of something. I was somewhat prepared to give my Fatherly speech about Parenthood and what coulda, shoulda, woulda been. But once those lil’ eyes met mine, IT WAS A WRAP! I fell in love instantly and could only hug Mercy and tell her how blessed she was to have such a beautiful and healthy Son.
She told me that she plans to return to school which will still be JSS. She is still not too sure of her birthdate, but is more confident that she is about 18-19yrs old. She was one of our first true orphans when we first started and I instantly fell in love with her stature and shy smile. As I watched her breastfeed the baby, I thought about when they first came to me with dreams of having all of their supplies for school and regular meals. Now she is providing for another being. Her son…my Grandson…Kwamena Muhammed.
Peace and Eternal Light Family…
