And I felt like I was preparing for a performance.
And when I gave birth to my son, I looked at my husband.
I said, I want to do that again.
He was like, you're crazy.
Oh, my gosh.
I had no idea how he was going to respond.
I mean, it can be really overwhelming or scary.
And when I saw Jackson walking towards me and he wasn't holding Olu's hand, I kind of screamed to Olu, why aren't you holding his hand?
He said he wouldn't let me.
He wanted to do this on his own.
And it was just so beautiful.
And, you know, I knelt down and I hugged him and he pulled this little figurine, like a dog, out of his pocket and he just goes, here, Mama, this is for you.
And so I was like holding this little dog in my hand trying to bow.
But he was just so excited.
He was waving at the audience and he felt so confident and comfortable.
And I was like, wow.
And I saw a change in him the next day.
I mean, I feel like he's a different boy now, but I'm just so grateful that he experienced seeing me perform live.
Well, perform for the first time.
He'd never seen me dance.
