Wonderful news 📰 even if we never had the chance to raise our children 👦 up ⬆️. I keep telling myself that “one day “ my son will call 📱/text and/or I will be able to call him and he will return my calls. It hurts so very much when I have no relationship with him, my one and only, son. I’m so very proud 🥲 of him. He graduated from college “summa cum laude”. My ex said that he must’ve developed his smarts (other than him). I laughed thinking 💭 that it was because I have gone back to college and was on the honor roll for most of it. I pray 🙏 that he will want to get in touch with me. If only he would reach out to me. I’m not going to take the time to answer his call 📱 and then hung up 🆙 on him. I’m his one and only mother even though his paternal grandmother 👵 was the one to raise him for me. Thank you for reading 📖 this very long post. God bless you!
