My Hero...

By -

Two Thursday's ago it was D.'s birthday and let me tell you what an incredible Man I have. It was his birthday and he decides to surprise me with a trip to the Salon. He hung out with little j. while I spent 3 hours in the Salon. Every now and then this is the kind of thing that he does for me, just because and it reminds me of what I have in him.

I haven't been to the Salon since little j. was born and that's been 8 months now. I really needed my hair done (colored, permed and trimmed) and he knew how badly I've been wanting to go. It's not easy leaving your breastfeed baby for many hours at a time. Those things I've just accepted had to wait until my babies got a little older to go more than 3 hours without nursing.
His Mom came over to stay with the kids so it was a perfect time for us to spend together celebrating his day. We eventually did, just after my appointment.

Do you know what it means to have someone who you can call on and they will be there for you whenever you need them to be. Someone who encourages you to be you, in spite of yourself. Someone who cherishes you like you are the very air that they breath. Someone who supports you when you need it most. Someone who believes in you when you don't. Giving all of this unconditionally, not looking for anything in return.

-This to me is the meaning of LOVE!

    Sweetheart thank you for your wonderful comments, and for taking the time and space in your online world to talk about lil ole me.

    I Love You more than ANYTHING! And what can a man do that effectively demonstrates ANYTHING? I am constantly perplexed by the heights and depths that must be reached in order to show you just what that means to me.
    Hero...?

My Monday Morning Started At 11:00PM...Last Night!

We had to take little j. to the Doctor this morning because last night he didn't sleep good and neither did we. He kept crying and crying and wouldn't stop. We were completely thrown because he had such a good day. Could it be: 1. He's teething and it's bothering him? Yes, but a little baby Orajel and infants Tylenol should have done the trick. It didn't. 2. I ate something that didn't agree with him? Of course we couldn't come up with anything. 3. He was just so tired from everything we did yesterday and it was hard for him to fall asleep? Maybe. 4. He got bit by a bug and we didn't know? We checked all over, no bites. We even checked to see if there was a piece of hair wrapped around his little fingers and toes. None! 5. Because he's teething he could have an ear infection? Yes very possible but he didn't show the usual signs: fever, pulling at his ears (that looked like it was out of the norm for him because it's something he does often...

Inspired To Write...

The other day a friend of mine asked me, where have you been? She then proceeded to say, it's like you fell off the face of the earth. I laughed and said, "no, I've actually fallen onto the face of the earth". Girl, thanks for that little laugh, I appreciated the moment :) I've fallen onto the face of the earth and bumped right into my family, friends (old and new), business partners, business meetings, social gatherings, moms meetings, and so many activities for the kids, life has been busy. My natural journey has opened so many doors, talk about beautiful women. Sistah's who have inspired me to keep going and stay focused on the end result rather than the transitioning stage. These days I mostly wear my hair in a ponytail-bun. I don't have time to get all fancy, but when I can I'll do a two-strand twist style and use my latest product discovery, Oyin Handmade . They are very reasonable and the products smell so good. If it's one thing I...
