      How I Learned to Forgive - Regina Faith

      Watching My Mother Leave

      One fall day the year of 1955, I was sitting outside in my brothers red wagon playing in the leaves in front of our house on Belvidere. While sitting there, my mother came out the neighbor’s house next door to where we lived. My mother was dressed in a long dark coat carrying a suitcase in each hand. I asked my mother where she was going, and she told me to the bank. Then I watched my mother walk to the corner of Belvidere and Forest. She turned the corner, and that was the last day we saw each other. I was just four years old.

      Life without My Mother

      My father got his mother (my grandmother) to sign guardian papers so that he would be able to raise his three children. Back in the ’50s, divorce men were not allowed to raise children by themselves, unless there was a woman in the household. Thank goodness my grandmother accepted to be our legal guardian. Otherwise, my brother, sister, and myself would have been placed in an orphanage. This was a real blessing for us.

      The First Year without a Mother

      My siblings were school age, so they were gone during the day. I had my grandmother to myself until my brother and sister came home from school. We had a sandbox in the backyard that I played in unless my grandmother took me downtown, or to the Warren/Conner shopping center, or the five-and-dime on the corner of Belvidere and Mack. I spent a lot of time
