Yesterday at 8:30 pm I got a text from my son that his best friends mom passed away. Jude & my son have been friends for 15 years & seen each other through so much. His mom moved here from Kenya maybe 10 years ago with her younger son & the first time I met her she said thank you for being so kind to my son. I teared up & said I feel like he is my family, like my son too. She hugged me..
The fact that she has two awesome hard working honest boys is a testament to what a good mother she was to them. Jude is an amazing person, caring, funny just a genuinely good man. When he is with his son they have this amazing bond & he has a daughter on the way in a few weeks.
I wish I could hug him & tell him it will all be ok but I can't because of this stupid virus. I just hope he knows that I love him like he is my own son. My entire family loves him, cousins, aunts, uncles etc
Here is a funny story to tell you how good of friends Jude & my son are. When they were younger they would go to the movies together all the time, Jude would call it a "man date" because they both have this huge love of movies. They would go to the mall & catch a movie then maybe walk around. They were doing it so much that a lady at one of the kiosks thought they were a gay couple & said it was so nice they have date nights. :)
