I am sure that most of you do not realize how we meet. Well here is the initial story. I was working at Cato with Shifonda and things between me and Marcus had diminished. We had broken up and I was sick. I would go to work and we would talk for hours about the current situation. She would let me know that everything would be alright and to put my faith in GOD. That my son and I would be ok. Things happen in life and every turn there is another road. She encouraged me to no dwell on the things in life that can’t be changed.
She was having a family reunion at her aunt and uncles house and said that me and J were welcome to come. I told her that I was going to stay at the house and she said that I would do better out of the house. She didn’t take no for an answer and came by the house the next day insisting that I get dressed and bring J over for a day among other kids.
I went and put clothes on and decided to come with. (Trust me she wasn’t leaving) We got to her aunt and uncles house (Cory’s parents) and I get out of the car and walk up with her. That is when I saw the “boys” for the very first time. Eldrick, Perez, Cobi, Cory and Bill were all standing together. They turned and saw me….. Next thing I know they were all asking Shifonda who I was and making sure that I wasn’t related.
Throughout the day they all trickled up and spoke…..
But that day lead to sooooo much more
