But time never stands still and soon Jim was moving out of the house. Moving from place to place. Turning twenty-one is Cincinnati; Jim called home and said “Your boy is now a Man.”

And she replied “I don’t care if your 80, you’ll always be my baby” Jim smiled, he was a mommas boy. But one day Jim received a call that would change his life forever. He knew his mother was sick, but not deathly sick. The phone call he got said that his mother was dying and that she needed to see her baby.

Jim immediately got in the car and started driving home to Alabama. He knew that he didn’t have much time and surpassed the speed limit by far. Memories flooded through his mind, already missing his mom. The weather seemed to match his emotions and his tears synced with the rain outside. He wanted his mom to see her baby.

When he arrived he thought that she was sleeping. But all the tears running down the faces of his family told a different story. Jim’s heart shattered as he realized that he arrived too late. Jim never got to say goodbye.

“And he cried, just like a baby. “
