*Following the shooting deaths of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile, model Amber Rose was moved to write about the “bittersweet” blessing of raising a black boy in America.

“I woke up this morning to my beautiful son with such a heavy heart,” she captioned a close-up of her 3-year-old Sebastian, whom she shares with ex Wiz Khalifa. “I grabbed my baby and kissed him, hugged him, told him how beautiful his skin and hair is and let him know that one day he will be able to change the world and I will love him and accept him no matter what.”

Rose shared her thoughts on Instagram after taking a social media break following the Sterling and Castile shootings.

“I stayed off of social media all day today to spend every waking second of my day off with my boy and loved him up,” the 32-year-old “Amber Rose Show” host continued. “Now that he’s warm in his bed it is so bittersweet that I have my baby next to me and other women are losing their babies left and right. I’m filled with such sadness. Alton and Philando were somebodies babies and they had babies themselves. Kiss ur babies tonight no matter how old they are and tell them you love them more than anything! Because at this rate we don’t know how much time we have left with them.”
