WOW. Where do I start. As I write this post tears roll down by eyes. I am so so blessed to have two wonderful Children. Andre and Jordane. Andre my son is 18 and my daughter Jordane is 12. Words cannot explain where I would be today if it wasnt for these two wonderful children. They themselves have gone through so much for there little age, but I am telling you when you have the Favor of God on your life you can rise up over anything.
Andre, was classified as a child who couldn’t read, wouldn’t do good, lazy and always gave trouble. But I am here to tell you today, that my son, has overcome all of the negative words that was spoken over him my family members, and other and he is doing well in school, he accepted Jesus into his life and he is a fantastic son. Over the past five years has been the hardest for us. The children have seen me being attack by the enemy in so may different ways, my health, my finances, my marriage and on a whole just every area of my life. But even though we have gone through so much, they have stood beside me and they pray with me. Days when I am in pain and cannot get out of bed, my son will cook and bring dinner to me. He ensures that I take my medicine. He looks after his little sister. God, thank you from the bottom of my heart for Andre. I was so happy when he reached one big milestone which was his 18th birthday and I was able to give him a surprise birthday party, purchase his drum set and had his friends and extended family over. On this day I had a spiritual Bar Mitzvah where I gave Andre back to the Lord. It was a wonderful day.
Now.. as for my daughter, my princess as she calls herself. She is a handful, but a very loving child. Words really cannot explain Jordane., She is tough, she wants to be an attorney then a Judge. I am telling you, I often laugh and joke when I tell her I feel so sorry for the people on the other side of the court room. She is cold. When all the trials began five years ago and my whole life us turned upside down, I remember Jordane saying to me… ” Mummy, if I can Do it. You can too”. Days when I am down and tears down, Jordane comes in wipe them away. She has this crazy laugh and she says and do things to just make you smile. God, Jesus….. I am blessed, oh so blessed. Thank you for my babies. I could never ever ask for better children.
Whenever they want to go somewhere is it includes sleeping out they make sure that one of them is always in the house with me. By 6pm if I am not home, I know my phone is going ring. Andre comes and tuck me in ever night. he will not go to sleep before me or his sister. He kisses me on the check and says good night mom, good night sis and then goes to bed.
If I should sit down and write about these children, I don’t think I would have enough hours in the day. They are blessed, they are special, they are covered under the blood of Jesus, they are loved and cherished. My Babies mean more to me than you can ever imagine.
Yes, I am a single mother and its hard when they choose to not listen to me and to disobey as all children do, but I wouldn’t change them for anything. Father’s when they leave there children they don’t know what they are missing. Even if they are in a situation where they cannot be with them, call them, write to them, try and communicate some way. The are very precious and priceless to God.
Andre and Jordane, your mom is oh so proud of both of you and she wishes she can do so much more for both of you. Thank God for my babies.
