My walk with CHRIST

 Hello everyone I have an announcement to make. I am letting go. I am letting go of myself and my expectations of my life and giving it all to God. I've skated this line long enough and I always did just enough, but not anymore. I've completely given my life over to Christ Jesus. I've been through a lot in my short life time and I've always lived my life off what I feel others will think of me and what I do but no more. I've tried to solve my problems my way and interpret my trials and tribulations my way and it has gotten me NO WHERE fast. The missing piece to my life is Him and He is who I choose. I am in the process of being reborn and will I fall? Yes! I don't expect that just because I gave my life over that I will be perfect but I will continue to surround myself with positive people to keep me on my with God. Yes I will change, My walk will change, my talk will change, my attitude will change, and I gladly except that. My husband and I decided that we needed to take this walk together because we have an obligation to our daughter to teach her how to be a God fearing young lady, and she can't learn that if her parents the most important people in her life, don't provide her with examples. We also decided to take this walk together because we are obligated to each other to be the best we can be for one another. We haven't been the best at that and we both agreed to make that change. Those of you who personally know myself and my husband just know that those two people have died and 1 person is emerging. Thanks in advance for all of your support and love. :-)

Hello World! :-)

Hello all! So I've been gone for a couple of months and it's all out of discouragement. I figured that  if I don't have any subscribers, why write my life? But I had to remember how good it felt to just talk and get things out no matter what it is. So here is an update :-) I did purchase the Exederm baby skincare line for my daughter. As I stated before she has super sensitive, dry, and itchy/flaky at times skin. I purchased the baby oil, baby bath, lotion, and cream. To me it didn't do anything special. After using all of the products  for about  a month or so, I didn't see any change in Mya's skin. She still itched and her skin was still dry. The only thing I like about it was that none of  it irritated her skin. So back to the drawing board it is.

Also, I am 6 months into my natural hair transition. It's weird because I thought by now I would be screaming for a relaxer but my natural hair is actually softer than my relaxed hair. The one thing I am absolutely falling in love with is my curl pattern. The longer my natural hair gets the more my coils start to define themselves. I LOVE IT! It makes me want to cut my hair NOW but I did set a one year goal and I'm going to TRY to stick to it. Plus I already know who I want to let " Big Chop" my hair.

Lastly, I have to say that I fell off the "loving me wagon." I find it very hard as a mother ( and let me be real a wife too.) to take care of me. I have so many goals for myself and I can't seem to accomplish them. During a recent girl's night, my girls and I all completed our own 2012 vision boards which I have posted in my bedroom. This is my first time creating one and I'm looking forward to crossing things off my board that I've accomplished. To me the only problem I have is MOTHERHOOD & WIFEDOM LOL I am constantly thinking about and doing things to make Mya and my husband happy to the point that I will drop anything for them and I don't make time for myself and  in a lot of ways that hasn't been good. I'm not making excuses for myself( or maybe I am) but starting today and not because it's a new year, I am going to start loving me just a little bit more. Soooo, to the people out there that view my blog postings this question is for you.

What do you do to show yourself l ove? Thanks for reading! :-)
