Many of my friends have never given birth, yet they're instrumental in the lives of their nieces, nephews, cousins, neighbors, Godchildren and others.
It really does take a village.
Black women who are willing to stand in the gap and mentor, encourage, babysit, provide financial assistance and nurture our Black children.
For me, I know there were many church members, neighbors, family friends and others who although not related biologically to my daughter were there for her in her formative years.
They're descendants (although not direct) of the same women who took me to church and taught me and lifted me up. I wish I had told them how much they meant to me. Now, of course, it's too late. I pray they knew.
If there are women in your lives: sisters, friends, neighbors, sorority sisters, play cousins, whatever, who are standing in the gap for you with your own daughters and sons, today might be a good day to give them a call (or a text) and let them know that you see them and you appreciate them.
