Single mama, I know the holidays aren’t always exactly happy. They can look like a lot of second guessing and hoping that all the effort is enough.

Don’t Be So Easy
My prayer is that I am never again so easy; that we are never again too easy. More times then I want to admit, I have allowed others to get things from me with limited effort.

September is a month of change. Leaves will be changing soon. Summer clothes will be pushed to the back of the closest. Pumpkin scented and flavored everything is completely taking over.
Sis, you are not milk….
Sis, please don’t ever forget, you are not milk. There isn’t an expiration date stamped on your side. There is far too much pressure being placed on you because of all the imaginary timelines. Timelines designed by others; for your life. But quite frankly, screw those timelines and even the guidelines. No one knows YOUContinue reading “Sis, you are not milk….”
