Since my last entry in November, lots positives have occurred in my life. The biggest is I am now an AUNTIE!! Daniella was born March 12, 2011. She’s now 5 and a half months and full of energy. As always here are some pics from the missed time.

On a quest to find the perfect name for the young women’s ministry, I came across a scripture that reminded me of my sisters and I.

“A cord of three strands is not easily broken.” Ecclesiastes 4:12

It made me think of our strengths and will power. Together we can be a greater force.

It can be a tough pill to swallow when you begin to succeed and surpass the ones around you then all of a sudden a change occurs in your relationships. They’re around when you’re pretty much on the same level as them, doing the same ish every day. When new doors open and opportunity knocks and you jump to answer, who would have thunk it that things would change amongst your family and friends. Why should I have to down play my success so you feel comfortable? I worked HARD for what I have achieved. And for some of them, things would have been much easier than it was for me, but they chose not to answer that knocking. My fault?…No, I didn’t think so. Daddy says, “You paid your dues. Now let the haters hate!” It’s quite frustrating but such is life. I’m proud, my parents are proud and so are the ones that unconditionally care for me. Deuces!

This came on in the car on the way home from church and immediately put a smile on face. Sing it Kelly! ((Click on the picture to hear it))

“I Don’t Know About Tomorrow” Kelly Price

I don’t know
About tomorrow
I just live from day to day
And I don’t borrow from its sunshine
For its skies may turn to gray
And I don’t worry about my future
For I know what Jesus said
And today He walks beside me
For He knows what lies ahead
Many things about tomorrow
I don’t seem to under-understand
But I, I know, I know, I know who holds tomorrow
And I know who holds, who holds my hand
Oh yeah, yeah, yes, hey, yes
Who holds my hand

Googling reviews for hair products, I stumbled upon an informative blog about Black hair and skin. Its called The American Parlor. Check it out.

I wanted to share this quote said in church today. I really like the last part, let it marinate.

“A bell’s not a bell ’til you ring, a song’s not a song ’til you sing it, love in your heart wasn’t put there too stay, love isn’t love ’til you give it away” ~Oscar Hamerstein II

I’ll post pictures of the events once I get them from my dad.

September 16^th was my little Puddin’s 21^st birthday. This weekend she came to Baltimore with some of her friends to celebrate. We met up at Milan, a hot new fashion inspired restaurant and lounge with Italian cuisine. Here are some pictures from the night.
