I want a “just checking in” kind of love.

a “baby did you eat today?” kind of love.

a “you’re the first person I told” kind of love.

an “I gotta kiss you before you leave” kind of love

an “I love you” before we say bye kind of love.

an “I noticed that you need this so I got it for you” kind of love.

a “we’re not going to bed til we’ve made up” kind of love.

a wipe my tears away kind of love.

a nonstop joke fest until I smile again kind of love.

a goofy smile when I walk in the room kind of love.

a hold me until my panic attack passes kind of love.

a rub my back after work kind of love.

I just want to feel completely, totally, truly loved.

Father Pens Book to Explain Protest to Kids in the Time of Black Lives Matter

When Kenneth Braswell, the founder of Fathers Incorporated, realized that he could not explain protesting to his then-6-year-old son in the face of the Baltimore protests for Freddie Gray, he came up with a solution that would also help other parents of young children facilitate the conversation.

“What’s protesting?” It was this innocent question last year from Kenneth Braswell’s then-6-year-old son that acted as a catalyst for the community activist to write a children’s book.

“I had an adult answer for that, but I did not have a 6-year-old answer,“ Braswell told The Root. “And I fumbled with trying to explain to him what protest meant, why people were protesting and what they were protesting.”
