I woke up this morning to an EMPTY house. I almost I woke up this morning to an EMPTY house. I almost started cleaning, then my inner sane person said AHT AHT. Free time does not mean cleaning time! How often do we think because we have free time, we need to spend it cleaning the house? As a mamma, it’s so easy to fall into that trap, because it’s just “easier.” Nope, not in 2021. I’m prioritizing rest over mess! Raise your hand if you’re guilty of cleaning when you should be resting. 🙋🏽‍♀️ I’m off to the nail salon and @ikeausa! Enjoy your Saturday!
Cheers to the freaking weekend! I just picked up s Cheers to the freaking weekend! I just picked up some fresh flowers from @wholefoods, which has been my weekly routine these past few months. Who am I becoming?! I don’t know, but it makes me feel grown and sexy! 🤣 Is this a thing, or did I totally make this up? Do you buy fresh flowers for your home? 💕💐
History has been made! Today we celebrate the inau History has been made! Today we celebrate the inauguration of the FIRST female VP of the United States.⠀ ⠀ I think about how hard my ancestors fought for this day to come. As a millennial, I’ve had the privilege to excerise my right to vote for the first Black president and the first female vice president of the U.S. If you asked me if I ever imagined I’d see such milestones as a little Black girl growing up, my answer would’ve been a hard NO. In a country that has made many of us feel hopeless time after time; today I feel HOPEFUL. ⠀ I had to break out my @converse Chuck Taylors for this occasion! She may be the first, but she will certainly not be the last. Get ready, get ready, get ready!!!💕🇺🇸
How can I love you better this week? Have you ever How can I love you better this week? Have you ever asked your partner this question?💕⠀ ⠀ This question came up in one of my devotionals . Such a simple question, yet powerful. Of course I asked Rob and he was caught off guard, so he replied with an R-rated answer.🤣🤦🏾‍♀️ ⠀ With all that’s going on in the world, it’s important to have these check-ins for you and your partner to communicate your needs. What you need this week may be totally different from what you need next week and vice versa. ⠀ ⠀ I’m a talker, Rob not so much, so this question is a great prompt for us to check in with one another. ⠀ ⠀ ⠀
“Life’s most persistent and urgent question is “Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, ‘What are you doing for others?'” - Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.⠀ ⠀ For most of my professional life, I always celebrate this as a Day Off From Work, But a Day on for Service. Thankful to all of our amazing supporters for helping us reach our goal this year. Because of your donations, time, likes and shares, we were able to distribute 300 blessing bags to displaced citizens of Union and Essex counties. I’m so grateful to my phenomenal @princessfoundationnj team for organizing and executing another successful Blessing Bag Drive. ⠀ ⠀ I can’t wait for Karter to get older, so he can learn all about the life and legacy of Dr. King! Service to others is essential to our family values. How did you teach your little ones about giving back? PS - Y’all peep your girl leggings getting baggy?! Ayeee💪🏾
“If you don’t like the road you’re walking, “If you don’t like the road you’re walking, start paving another one.” - Dolly Parton⠀ ⠀ This is your Saturday reminder that you have the power to create your own story. Don’t let writers block get in the way. Just start writing!📝⠀
How do you keep your blonde curls so moisturized i How do you keep your blonde curls so moisturized in cooler weather? I get this question often, so here’s the deal. K.I.S.S - Keep it simple sis! ⠀ ⠀ Chasing after a toddler, working full-time and managing two businesses’ does not allow for me to prolong wash day. I usually give myself one hour to get it washed, detangled, styled and diffused. ⠀ ⠀ Here’s 3 tips that work for me. I hope they’re helpful!⠀ ⠀ 1️⃣ Limit my shampoo use. I usually shampoo once a month, and co-wash the remaining weeks with my favorite @asiamnaturally co-wash.⠀ 2️⃣ Put my hair in a pineapple for bed, with a hair sleeve. Check out @dlolo for one.⠀ 3️⃣ Leave in conditioner is Bae.⠀ ⠀ That’s all, that’s it!🧖🏾‍♀️ Are you #teamcolor or #teamnocolor ?
Karter is obsessed with @magnatiles! I love to see Karter is obsessed with @magnatiles! I love to see his creativity flourish and the different masterpieces he’s been creating. I live for toys that allow me to sneak in learning, while he plays.

Improves critical thinking skills⠀ 3. Great for fine motor skills⠀ 4. Helps little ones to identify shapes and colors⠀
