It’s Friday, and you know what that means…it’s time to write for five minutes flat about whatever Lisa-Jo decides. Come on…you know you want to try it. This week, the word is ACHE. Let’s see what bubbles out of my heart today.
Ready, set, GO!
All Grown Up
He lies in the bedroom next to mine…crumpled comforter covering his broad shoulders. Dreams of college, career, and creative ventures caress his mind.
The boy who made me a momma is almost grown.
But he still calls me Momma…moreso the closer he gets to his graduation day.
He knows it’s the name I prefer. Not Mom, but Momma.
He used to save the name for when he wanted something…a ride to a friend’s house or an extra 10 bucks.
But now, he uses my favorite name just because. Just because he loves me. Just because he knows my momma heart aches that he’s growing so fast.
Just because he’s my boy and he doesn’t ever want me to forget it.
