The Coleman/Bullock Family comes here today to honor Jayla Coleman.
My daughter Jayla passed just a month shy of her 21st birthday, she was a loving mother of a 3 yr old daughter Nylah, and has 2 older siblings Andre and Raven.
Jayla was not only a beautiful young woman, she was also a smart, caring, funny, & determined young woman. When she put her mind to something she did it. An example of her determination was in her junior year of high school she wanted to graduate early so she put in the work of her 11th and 12th grade year and in a matter of 3 mths she was done. It was a lot of hard work for her but she did it. I was so proud of her. After she accomplished that goal she went on to getting a job and later finding out she was pregnant with her little girl Nylah. She was of course scared and nervous, but I knew she would be a great momma. And she was. She loved her little girl more than anything and strived to give her baby everything she needed and then some.
I wanna share something she had posted about becoming a mom that I found on her Facebook about a week ago. “To this day I get so sad just looking at her. I cannot believe I gave birth to such a smart , loving , funny baby . She’s my world and I couldn’t imagine my life without her, even the thought of not being with her makes me tear up and cry. I have never in my life felt such a strong love for something or someone ever. She literally makes my life complete . It honestly scares me that she has to grow up in this world cause I know one day when she gets older I won’t always be there to protect her and that alone scares the crap out of me. That little girl is my best and only friend, I know no matter what she will always be there.”
I sat and just cried after I read it, my lil girl won’t be here to see the baby she loved so much grow up, but hopefully when her lil Nylah bug as she called her grows up she will be able to look back on the memories and at the legacy her mom left behind. A legacy of not only being a good mom to her but also a legacy of saving 4 peoples lives and also helping a special woman to soon have a baby by donating her uterus. She was such a giving person in life to others who needed it, but she also was able to help others even after. Although it hurts losing my little girl, to know she saved peoples lives and to know she will continue to live on in others helps in this grieving process.
