Truth is… Tuesday
Happy New Year - Oh how I missed you all!!!
Truth is, after Landon was finally released from NICU, “he”
didn’t even show up for our 1st doctor’s appointment - and I was so
mad. The more I thought about it, the more I heard Jazmine Sullivan in my
head……“I bust the windows out your car”…lol! I just couldn’t understand what
this man was thinking, but I was sure about what he was NOT thinking about –
his son. This little boy was so precious and innocent, why wouldn’t you want to
be a part of his life? One day I was super tired, but my mom and granny
had to run some errands so that meant I had to be a big girl and care for this
little man by myself. I called his dad and asked could he come help me. I could
hear the rap music blazing and a few of his friends talking extra loud in the
background. His response was, “I will come get him but I’m not coming over
there.” Sir, this little baby is only 4 weeks and will not ride with you
and your homeboys anywhere. He said, “Oh well, I guess you’re own your own.” I
cried as if I was the baby while this sweet little boy slept so peacefully.
La’Marion get yourself together (I’m going to be saying this a lot to myself!)
After that, I resolved in myself that I was not going to put
myself in a position to be told “you’re on your own” again, and apparently,
that set off something I could have NEVER guessed! I remember this day so
clearly….. It was two weeks later as I was riding with my mom. My grandmother
called and said “Hey, you have a letter from the attorney general’s office”.
The blonde in me is thinking I have committed a crime! Lol! My mom and granny
said Sue maybe he has put himself on Child Support! I start laughing extremely
loud telling them he wouldn’t do something like that. Well, BOY was I wrong! He
said “Yes, because I’m sick of you dictating when I can see my son”, which made
me go completely off on him. I didn’t want to keep Landon away from his dad
(completely), I just didn’t trust all the places he went. I explained to him
(yelled at him!) that “I dated you before we had a baby and knew that some
places you went where definitely not safe for a baby and your mom smokes
cigarettes like she’s trying to break a world record!”. After that I was ready
for War! I didn’t want these people in my business. I know this may sound
childish…… BUT this is MY Single Truth.
