Granted it was only from another four year girl, when I heard that my baby niece (well Tano's niece Jada, we aren't blood related but she adores me and I love her) had been punched in the face by another little girl at her "new" school, I was sick to my stomach.
Jada is beautiful and has taken a lot of shit for it at the age of four. Her mother Kierra is black and her father, my brother in law, is (obv) Puerto Rican. He's not full blooded Puerto RIcan like my husband but they share they same mother and Damien is half Puerto Rican, half New Yorker.... no not half white, half New Yorker, there is a difference. But this little girl has the most beautiful curly hair and perfect light brown skin. Little girls always hate on her. But apparently this girl named Diamond straight punched my niece in the face!
I can't tell you how close I came to really wanting to hurt this four year old girl, especially when I found out she outweights Jada by fourty pounds! Where the hell does she get off?
Since Neveah has been born, Jada has moved out of Gengas house during the week and stays with her Grandmother Gram, on her mothers side. This part of the family don't have the structure that Jada was receiving from Gengas home. She doesn't bathe every day, just does "wash ups", she never gets her hair done just braided with beads in it, etc. And when you take these braids out of her hair it shreds and rips the hair out and though she has beautiful hair its thin. I'm worried about her being at Grams house because there's six or seven other kids there between the ages of three and nine and just no structure!
Jada is so freaking intelligent its scary, she is Miguels age and so far beyond his levels of wisdom its scary.
Tonight I got to see Jada since before school started. As soon as I stepped in the door she came running to me and hopped in my lap. I LOVE this little girl! I asked her how school went and she said, "its not fun!" And crossed her little arms. Broke my heart.
I know this is off subject but this just made me so sad! All because this little girl is light skinned and beautiful.
In other news, I didn't talk to Tano tonight. When I got there Damien, Ty, Jada, Neveah, Jeanette, Tano and Elijah were all in the living room. Yes I want to tell him but in front of everyone? Yeah right!
