Time to tackle this week.

Tonight as I reflect over my day I’m brought back to a moment between myself and my youngest. After he had eaten breakfast, brushed his teeth, washed his face, and got dressed as every morning; he looked at me with his big brown eyes and asked “mommy am I handsome?” My response was “you are the most handsome little boy I know, matter fact let me take a picture of you to show you just how handsome you are”! Skyler loves taking pictures so he was down for me capturing him. After I took two and showed him; I said see how handsome you are?” The big smile that spread across his face was the confirmation that he trusted me enough to believe in what I saw and that caused him to see it too! It’s very important as parents, guardians, and trusted caregivers we speak life into our babies very young because this world is cruel! A very sad truth is our children are exposed to cruelty very young and sometimes its right at home before anywhere else. It is our job to nurture, protect, and prepare them for the possibilities of what they could encounter yet instill in them the tools needed to overcome! The world will label them and offer them a false sense of identity very young, so that they never reach the destiny intended. That may be the plan of the enemy, but doesn’t have to be their reality at all. I declare daily as for mine the plan of the enemy will not prevail! I will say this year was definitely a year of awakening for me, but needless to say I’M WOKE NOW!!!

Aperol season is upon us. 🍊

No potion needed… I linger where I’m wanted.

He’s still in training… but the coffee is acceptable.

They should get some more attention soon.

Good boy.
