9 Years & Counting!

By -
Yesterday was my wedding Anniversary. We've been married for 9 years. Being married to David has been an incredible experience!!

The first time we met we were actually 7 years old. Yes, in Sunday school. My Father was one of the Pastors and his Mother was one of our Sunday School teachers and choir director. Who would have thought all these years later we'd be married raising 5 kids.

The kids love to hear the stories about how me and D. use to hang out together with our friends when we were younger. We didn't date back then, I didn't even know he had a crush on me until we got together 15 years later, which was over 9 years ago.

I moved to Ga two years before he did. We stayed in touch a little here and there and then lost touch for 4 years. The very first time we saw each other again, we knew we were going to be together for the rest of our lives and got married 5 months later. That's when I started hearing all of those stories about him having a crush on me and me being totally oblivious to it...LOL, my guess is that I didn't need to know what I didn't know back then.

**Right now I'm watching D. with little Joshy. He's combing his hair (listening to Jay's new video, "I Know"). I love watching him with his kids. It's beautiful to see a Man so loving and affectionate with little ones, isn't it? I can't wait to see what the next 9 years will bring, I'm blushing just thinking about it.

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...

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...
