Who's Yo Mama?
No matter where we go...movies, grocery store, laundromat, airport, post office, gas station,
school, bank, church, or mall...there are always going to be children near and far. Of course,
we have heard the old adage, "It Takes a Village to Raise a Child". In my life, this has
meant that we all look after children, support their success and check their misbehavior.
We recently celebrated Mother's Day, but it made me think...we are all in a position to
nurture children...whether an educator, parent, minister, social worker, psychologist,
counselor, security guard, bus driver, cafeteria worker, custodian, relative, friend...
or even a complete stranger...I challenge us all to consider the question:
Who's Yo Mama? My response? Whoever is in close proximity to...
love, nurture, admonish, encourage, enlighten, inspire, or support...a child..any child..
should do so...why? because YOU CARE! Thank you for caring...
