D’Weighta Cumberbatch felt like a queen yesterday.
Like millions of mothers around the world, the 24-year-old was celebrated – in her case by in-laws and friends – for the very special role she plays.
A weekend of delight started from Saturday when she did something she hadn’t done for sometime.
Needing to get from Lower Burney to My Lord’s Hill in St Michael and with her usual transport unavailable, Cumberbatch took control of matters.
Wheelchair notwithstanding, she got on a minibus with her two children and made it safely with the assistance of her daughter’s godfather Shamar Grant.
“Today is Mother’s Day and it was a pleasure to be out with my kids,” she said yesterday with pride.
