Recently, I've had to search deep into some areas of my life that I had been overlooking. They were the thoughts I commonly have yet I act as if they're not a problem. August can be a tough month for me. My sister, her best friend and friend's mom were killed in August. My grandfather … Continue reading Legacy of Faith: I Am Fighting For Mine 🥊🥊

Kids, Family & Expectations
Today, I had a conversation about adult expectations when interacting with children. The person shared that sometimes family doesn't share the same beliefs (which is true) and may even talk negatively about us for putting our foot down when it comes to our kids.

Thankful, Grateful & Truly Blessed
On the 27th, I posted: We can focus on what we don't have or we can focus on what we do have. Life may not look the way we want, but we should love ourselves and appreciate the fact that we have been given one more day to get it together...one more day to make … Continue reading Thankful, Grateful & Truly Blessed
