First #ballet class! 😭
Summer vibes.
In my feelings after a long week. If I were a wine drinker I’d have a whole bottle all by myself.
When Jesus hit you wit a “heifer when was the last time you read your Bible?” It’s on the to-do list, though. #tbt
Today was the kind of #Momlife day where (upon arriving my home from a long day at the office) my kids screamed “Mom!” Every 5 minutes to show me how great they are at breathing or performing some basic task and expected me to positively affirm them every other minute when I just wanted to yell “leave me the hell alone”. But I didn’t, I smiled and said “that’s nice baby”. I then made some excuse and left them with Dad so mommy could run a quick errand and not flip the dinning room table over in frustration. So basically... I rocked as a mom: today I did not intentionally scare them emotionally.
Joy-filled, ashy knee’d summer vibes.
Her favorite dress (that she wears 3x a week), her custom-made skateboard (cut just for her) and her 1 week old high bun (because over-grooming my girl’s hair is not my thing).
The Queen of the paddle board.
Y’all this #LAheatWave is oppressive.
Me after abandoning my keto diet. I’d rather eat less calories and work out with a splash of anti-inflammatory dieting in between. Also I’m on the market for a good nutritionist.
Twitter found Pool Patrol Paul’s workplace and the CEO’s contact number. The internet is hell bent on creating repercussions for discrimination, racial profiling and the policing of black bodies where none currently exists. Consider this for a moment, 150 years after slavery everybody is still paying the price. Where do you think the irrational fear and suspicion of black bodies stems from? The guilt and shame from slavery and the constant fear that repercussions will come, passed unwittingly down through families and society as a whole. #StayWoke
Precious moments.
