“Mommy, I’m scared,” He said.
“Honey, everyone’s scared of their first day of school,
just look your fears in the face and kick ‘em away!” I
said, tickling his neck to lighten the mood. “Bye Mommy, I
wub you!” He said, taking his lunch box from my hand."I
love too, Sweetheart,” I said, and bent down to kiss him on
his head.I watched him skip off. “Go get ‘em,
baby.” I said. I opened my eyes again. I was back, this time
back-stage. Justin put his arm over my shoulder.“Mom, I
don’t feel well,” he said, “I’m scared to
perform. I don’t want to mess up.” I looked up at my
son. “Just look right at your fears-““And kick
‘em,” He said and smiled at me. “I love you,
Mom” I handed him his microphone, and leaned up to kiss him
on the cheek.“Love you too sweetheart,” I said.
“JUSTIN! JUSTIN! JUSTIN!” the crowd cheered as my son
walked on stage. He would always be my little boy, the little
Justin skipping into his classroom, the one I gave up everything
for, the little stranger that changed my life.
“Go get ‘em baby.”
