When I got there the principal called me into the office & threatened in school suspension unless my Mom OK’d it.

They called my Mom & she said “it’s all good. I’ll handle this on my own”

She had my back against the school.
I’ll never forget that. -
I was a senior… was over school & she knew it. She always knew school wasn’t for me - so she never forced me to excel in something I hated.

She focused on building me up & turning me into a man of values. Not superficial worldly titles…. -
Our bond grew & grew… because of the way she chose to raise me. People didn’t always agree with her & how she was doing it either.

She always stood her ground. She knows her son. She respected me.
She raised me the way I needed to be raised -
Momma is now 52, I retired her a couple years ago.
