“When they took the stage, the friends, two girls and a boy, formed a protective shell around L. One stood behind her, the other two on either side. And then, they each lay a hand on their friend, one on each of her shoulders, one at the base of her neck. And L. read, “Alabanza, my mom.””

I loved this post, Michelle. I’m suppose to be working and could not resist the blog…Mommy diary. Such a touching and simple moment of frustration validated for every mother. …and yes, Michelle, I love the way you wrote this. I’m so inspired. Thank you for the distraction. It boosted my energy and love of motherhood…with all it’s frustrations…it’s beauties…it’s children of peculiar ways…I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world. Hugs!

I think you are exactly what K needed at 5 am.
