I swear these songs today are really a bad influence on our children….(Even though I find it hilarious to see them trying to sing and dance to something they dont understand)
“Papi shop it” That the closest my three year old gets to singing the actual song, but boy can she do the dance….Now ask her to count to 20 and thats a different story….
So parents…the next time “Papi shop it” comes on the radio, turn the station ~ lol
I have learned on this day that its truly my little girls world…not mine…
I am merely a player to her game……lol
I woke up one morning and my entire life changed….Ive been running and running….faster than I think My body and mind can keep up…..so much to do……so little patience……
Never thought I would be adopting a little girl…..but just like a song in my heart….she has appeared to my life and I’ll never be the same…….
Pray for us
Ok
Now that we found heaven….when do you SPANK!!! I never knew kids were as smart and as cunning as they actually are! OMG
Its amazing……..they sit there while looking extremely unaware and sometimes oblivious and then out of their mouths can come wisdom and words FAR beyond their years…
Now that the sweet stuff is out of the way…..Lets get to the rest……..so we go from imparting wisdom beyond our years to THROWING A FIT!!! I mean a real one…one were there is vomit involved if the yelling and the screaming dosent work! Vomit all over the pink church dress!!!! I was livid. So now that we’ve found heaven……When do you spank that #$@^&???!!?
Ready or not….Life is coming….
It takes you by surprise…catches you off guard…gives little to no warning…and before you know it..you’re living it. They say life is what you are living while waiting on tomorrow. (The tomorrow that usually never comes).
You gave me a small warning….then you came….LIfe….You got me again. Packed in a package about three feet tall…bony little legs….a head the size of texas with a smile, MOUTH, and ATTITUDE to match……Hello life…Hello Ona……
Good Morning all
I havent written in a few days because I am still recovering from this weekends vacation. I am exhausted! Please dont make the same mistake I did and jam pack a MILLION different things into just three days! Not good.
I attempted to Visit about 9 family members, go to a casting call for Hype Hair magazine in NYC, Shop for a birthday gift for my cousin, attend a birthday party in Philly, Go to the hip hop youth summit in Philly, Have dinner with my father, spend time with a cutie (long story) in the evening in philly, and fly back to chicago and be at work the following day. DIDNT HAPPEN. First I couldnt see half the family members (but I did spend time with my 6mo old cousin and my baby cousin Makalah who is 6yrs old). Next I didnt get to spend time with the cutie (maybe when I go back in July) Next, I was dead tired after the party, Next I went to NYC and did the casting call, and didnt have that much time to shop for my cousins gift so I settled for something from the Hersheys store in Manhattan.
DOnt ever do that!! I got very little sleep and was so tired I couldnt see straight. That can ruin a vacation, and turn a vacation into WORK. And none of us wants that. Carefully plan your vacations, and dont put to much into to short of an amount of time. Next, get plenty of SLEEP. Its the only way you can truly enjoy yourself and feel rejuvinated when you return.
I dont know what I am doing this weekend, but I am going to do something fun. But no matter what, I am going to get SLEEP. Its sooo very important…
*Make it a great day*

This is dedicated to those whom has loved me when I didnt feel as though I loved myself. To those who cheered me when I was a reck and couldnt find cheer anywhere. To those who made me laugh when I felt the only clown was me. And wiped my tears when I know their tissues were drenched from their own.
To:
My Mother (Myra Black) – My Cousin (Rebecca Patton) – My Little Brother (Micheal Sales) – My Best Friend (Reuel Shepherd) – My Friend forever (Kesh) and the many associates that bothered to listen when I needed your ears, including my co-workers and classmates. Thank you. THis is for you:
The Beauty of Our Friendship
Friendship is a priceless gift that cannot be bought or sold
But its value is far greater than a mountain made of Gold
For Gold is cold and lifeless it can neither see nor hear
and in the time of trouble its powerless to cheer
It has no ears to listen nor heart to understand
It cannot bring you comfort or reach out a helping hand
So when you ask God for a gift be thankful if HE sends
Not diamonds, pearls or riches, but the love or real true friends.
I have a cousin that is about four years younger than I. I met her when she was just nine years old and I was about thirteen. Now being the adult that I was (lol) I looked at her as the child that needed the leadership and the big sisterly advice that someone of her age would need. (Although she already has two sisters both of which are older).
I still remember her face at nine years of age. She a beautfiul child with eyes that sparkled and she looked at the world adoringly and with all the kindness that a child has to give. I was meeting that side of the family for the first time and we were at a church outing, out of the entire family, it funny how a nine year old can make you feel the most welcome.
Well that nine year old is 27 now (as of Tues) and I am – well- OLD! lol…. Even though the world has wiped away some of that sweetness, all is not lost. Even though some tough times has darkened some of that sparkle, all is not gone. She is still to me, and always will be that adorable nine year old that makes me feel welcome when the world can seem distant.
She is much crazier now then before (in a good way) and is so direct and blunt. She tells things how they are and is as witty as anyone I have ever met. She puts me in my place sometimes and tells me things I dont want to hear when they are things I need to hear. She seems to me to be always right. (But dont tell her that). When she tells me not to do something and I do it, I always see that she was right. When she tells me that some dude is crazy and not worth my time and I dont listen, I always look back to see that she was right. Its funny how I thought I would lead that nine year old but now that nine year old is leading me.
Happy Birthday Chica
I love ya!
