I also remember Mrs. Blanc and Maureen.\u00a0 I remember my aunts, Aunty May and Nurse who took us to live with them after Mama\u2019s death, however my brothers came for us shortly after promising my father and aunts that they would help to take care of us as they wanted our family to stay together.\u00a0 And oh they did a fantastic job! I remember my mother\u2019s friends including Ma Sherry from Salisbury, Mrs. King and Ma Lewis, Ma Marita, Ma Hogan, Ma Mavis, Ma Patrick, my mother\u2019s goddaughter, Famie and the mothers of Mahaut who looked out for us<\/p>\n<p>And as I reflect on Mother\u2019s day, I pay homage to my Aunty Vonnie, who loved us unconditionally, cared for and protected us.\u00a0 Aunty Vonnie had little but she gave us much.\u00a0 She stepped in to ensure her sister\u2019s children were okay though she had many children of her own.\u00a0 Her children too loved us dearly.\u00a0 Aunty Vonnie often cries tears of joy saying that we have not forgotten her, but how can we?\u00a0 How do you forget and not honour and love a person who gave so much of her life for you, when she did not have to and even more when she had so little?\u00a0 Aunty Vonnie epitomizes the thought and I take liberty to make an amendment, \u201cWith God [and with Love], a little is much.\u201d\u00a0 Thank You Aunty Vonnie!\u00a0 Thank You my Cousins!<\/p>\n<p>I pay homage to Ma Agatha, Ma Philomen and Ma Magai, who provided another home for us. \u00a0I pay homage to Rita, my uncle\u2019s wife who was always so kind to us.\u00a0 They have moved on to join Mama however I remember. \u00a0I remember spending summer holidays in Warner and to this day I cannot drink Nannee and Basilic without milk.\u00a0 And those penny breads! The scent of nannee and basilic also bring back many happy childhood memories.<\/p>\n<p>I pay homage to Shirley who became our primary caregiver, cooking, cleaning, caring and loving.\u00a0 Shirley also loved us unconditionally and would do anything for our children and us.\u00a0 To this day, she provides grandmother services!\u00a0 Nathan loves going by \u201cMama\u201d, and this is the only place that when I return from my travels, Nathan does not want to come home with me!\u00a0 Shirley\u2019s home will always be our home.\u00a0 Thank You Shirley!<\/p>\n<p>And lastly I pay homage to my two eldest sisters, Cleo and Connie, particularly Connie who stepped in as Mother for their younger siblings.\u00a0 These two sisters gave selflessly and on many occasions put their lives on hold to care for us.\u00a0 When Connie graduated from UWI Mona, Cleo was away at UWI Cave Hill, and she just assumed the role of mother (Cleo also considers Connie as Mother!)\u00a0\u00a0 Connie took on that role with such love and humility that we did not for one moment feel that we were burdens.\u00a0 I remember when we were together, people would ask her whether I was her daughter, and when she would answer, \u201cNo, my sister,\u201d I would say, \u201cTell them I am your daughter!\u201d\u00a0 You see, I knew she was my sister but felt that she was my mother!\u00a0 A feeling I still feel!<\/p>\n<p>After Connie got married, all of us younger sisters lived with her for sometime, and I stayed the longest (until the year of my 40<sup>th<\/sup> birthday &#8211; Remember I told you there were some men who played key roles in our lives.\u00a0 She could not have done that without the love and support of her husband)! After Hurricane David, Cleo placed her doctoral studies on hold to come to care for us in Barbados. They made sacrifices with no complaints.\u00a0 It was only as we became adults we understood the magnitude of the sacrifices our sisters made.\u00a0 And they made them expecting nothing from us in return.\u00a0 They not once reproached us; not once did they remind us of all they have done for us.\u00a0 My sister Catherine always says, \u201cI grew up without a mother, never feeling I did not have a mother; thanks to the love and support of my sisters and family.\u201d\u00a0 Cleo and Connie, I thank you for shaping us into the persons we became!\u00a0 Know that you are the \u201cwind beneath our wings and in our sail.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0 We will always remember, give thanks and show our appreciation.\u00a0 We Give Thanks.<\/p>\n<p>Everyday we are to appreciate and give thanks for our mothers and the people in our lives who mothered us, however Mother\u2019s Day, is a reminder for us to stop, give them their flowers while alive and let them know how they have shaped our lives.<\/p>\n<p>Happy Mother\u2019s Day to All Mothers and Those who Mother!<\/p>\n<p>I can be contacted at <a href=\"mailto:info@vfinc.org\">info@vfinc.org<\/a> and Tel: 767 449 9649<\/p>\n<p>Until we meet again, may the Lord continue to Keep us in the Palm of His Hands.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Happy Mother\u2019s Day to all mothers!\u00a0 May the Lord continue to bless you with love, wisdom, peace, understanding, patience, so that you can continue nurturing your children to ensure they fulfill God\u2019s purpose for their lives and they touch others\u2019&#8230;","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_cbd_carousel_blocks":"[]","footnotes":""},"categories":[89,30],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-117030","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-business-life","category-columns"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>BUSINESS &amp;
