Raising A Gentleman

Today is a big deal! My son is 3 years old! How did time go by so fast? I’m still trying to wrap my head around the fact that he’s about to leave the nest soon. My goal has always been to raise a strong and compassionate man. Reflecting on his three years, and just like any other parent, there has been some very high-highs and low-lows. The good outweighs the bad 🙂 It’s a huge honor to be a parent. It takes courage to trust the journey and raising my son has been quite fulfilling 🙂

CHIT CHAT + MOTHERS DAY!
My Motherhood Journey

CHIT CHAT + MOTHERS DAY!

“As the old adage goes, there is more happiness in giving than there is in receiving. People carry a lot of burden with them around the streets, in their houses, in their offices, all up in their minds and hearts but when you free yourself off that burden, then you never look back to see who’s gonna stab you cause that’s not your concern.” This was sent to me by a good friend of mine. Sometimes we just can use some words of wisdom from our inner circles.

MATERNITY WEAR TIPS + WHERE WE ARE AT.

MATERNITY WEAR TIPS + WHERE WE ARE AT.

It’s very scary to imagine that God trusted me with raising a whole human being. Did you know that half the time it’s practically guess work?  There’s no manual to raising these little humans.  In between sore breasts, cries that drive me nuts and nipple grabs that have me screaming all over the house, I’ve finally managed to spare some time aside and share what was my go to maternity style/wear while preggers and do some catching up on our lives with a month old litu human. PS: I’ve been postponing this blog post for a while now since I’ve been trying to catch some sleep when baby is asleep but today, we’re doing this! Also, I felt I needed the break. Being in the house full time can drive you insane. I remember telling my very good ol’ fried Carey before I had baby that  I’ll stay in the…

BUMPING & GLOWING.

There’s no denying that these pictures actually show that my body carried the baby very well apart from the morning sickness and high level emotions that weighed me down. However, today I choose to focus on the GLOW UP that came with the hormones. :D  We can’t deny the glow up here, well of course with the help of a super facebeat thanks to John K and the healthy  hair!  Yes, I finally rocked MY real hair here. Good-bye extensions!  For the longest time, I really struggled to get my hair on track and healthy as well as getting rid of my very bad acne and there’s no denying that  these pregnancy hormones did a very commendable job with my hair and skin and a few other areas! 😀 If you’ve been a keen reader, you’ll notice I’ve featured this dress here before I think It looks way better and…

EMOTIONAL ROLLER COASTER & LOVE OF MY LIFE.

Hey Yo!! Before we get into today’s post, I want to deeply thank everyone who sent their warm and sweet messages following the GRAND arrival of our little one. We are so grateful and we thank God. Now let’s get into the details of how those 40 weeks 5 days we’re probably the most emotional and draining weeks of my life because girllllllllllll what a ride. What a ride that was🤷. First off, with  today’s post, my intentions are pure ladies and maybe gents. I’m not here to discourage anyone but simply just sharing my own experience to hopefully enable you to be very open minded about pregnancy. I was so used to hearing women say what a magical journey it was and how they’d do it again in a heart beat and I expected it to be the same for me. Honestly speaking, mine wasn’t anything close to magical.…
