The BeYOUitful Melanated Child



             I pray your start of the week has been full of family,friends dreams reached,goals met,and lots of love. Our week so far has been uneventful. However my  youngest Sun Masai the Warrior is full of life and keeps me extremely busy.

              He is so full of life and tons of energy....I repeat active and FULL of energy!! As we go through out day to day route I watch him sweep through our daily curriculum and activities,and I'm like woow this lil dude is freaking AWESOME. I've been BLESSED to have birth three of the greatest contribution to the world in the form of my 3 AMAZING Sun's😀.

               However #3 has been something of a relearning experience.. lol. Being an older parent(hub's and I will be 58 when he walks across the stage). So at a few months short of 42yrs old I laugh...thinking what the hezzz I done got myself into. Although this is not my first ride on the bus of parenthood (I've got a 22 and 20yr old Sun's).

                It's really scary with all that's going on in the world right now, police opening fire on us like it's hunting season,and Africans not knowing their worth killing each other. This world is a kinda screwed up place.

                  Nonetheless I try hard not to clip his wings with my fears, of what it means to be a melanated male in this world today. I already have anxieties when it comes to his brother's who are out in the elements.

                    So as hard as it's been seeing our babies being gunned down like animals in the street. I've decided I just have to find a peaceful balance, for my sun. While still instilling healthy discipline, boundaries, communication, and lots of love, patience and understanding. So that he'll be a productive member in society(that unfortunately in a lot of ways still doesn't respect him).I know it'll be work, and hard at time, however such is life!
 
                     So if you have a natural born leader (I've been blessed with three), my advice would be keep nurturing their spirit, through love, prayer, meditation and physical stimulating and watch them soar to be all that the Most High has destined them to be, despite a world that wants to stunt his growth!!!

No Ordinary Child

To all the parent's of those Strong-willed lil ppl....I salute you!! I've raised 2,working on #3..lol!! Our babies are literally born geniuses! I understand the task ahead of you.
Embrace it and enjoy the ride.

After working in Early Childhood Education for 23 yrs,with children from ages birth to 3yrs of age. I was simple amazed at the capabilities our children had to learn, grasps,and apply what they were taught. However over time believe it or not structure killed their Spirit. Being told what,and how to do things from 6:30am-5:30pm is an imagination killer.

Unfortunately the term 'Free Choice' you hear thrown around in schools,daycares and the likes. Free choice is really just,a choice of structured choices...lol. Order is definitely needed that's just common sense. However the freedoms to completely be one's unrestricted self is also needed for the whole self and mental health☺.

So if you have never read Dr. Amos N. Wilson "Awaking the Natural Genius of Black Children" you definitely want to grab it up. So all that to say parents stop being KILL JOY'S....and allow your Seed's to be their true unique selves!!! The role of being ordinary is already taken,and being filled by the masses😏...lol

I Salute You REAL Men Stand Up(Michael Vogel)

Today's I Salute You REAL Men Stand Up is my brother Michael Vogel,or as we call him Uncle Mike! I'm giving this tribute to Uncle Mike! Mike stood in the gap for me as a single parent with Sun's.

Uncle Mike has been a part of my Sun's,my  Nephews,and little Cousin lives as long as I can remember. From homework,to a place to stay when the boys were feeling themselves... lol. To wrestling matches, and driving lessons he has done it all for my Sun's. No words can every express the love and gratitude I have for you.

You saw a need (a male figure)was needed,and stepped right up and in to fill the role. We love you Uncle Mike, and pray Abba Yah continue to bless you,and keep you surrounded in His love,light and shalom!!

I Salute You REAL Man Stand Up(The Brats)

For my second day of I Salute You REAL Men Stand Up is The Brats(what I call my Sun's)! Robert, Ryan,and Masai are literally my life line. I know people say all the  time how much they love their children....well I'm definitely one of'em!

My Sun's have brought me so much joy,and yes a lil pain....lol. However l know without a shadow of a doubt I have been BLESSED with amazing Sun's. I'm very PROUD of the young men they are becoming. I love they way they look out for each other,as well as me!

Even with it being 18,and 16yr space between #1 and #2,with #3,their bond is really tight. I could go on,and on,about the love I have for my Sun's(anyone who knows me,knows that I can...lol). I love you Brat's and thank Abba daily for allowing me to be your mom! You guys ROCK!

Keep shining,and grinding and living by the standards I installed in you,and you'll go far. Always put Abba Yah first and foremost at the head,and your path will be straight! I love you boy's...light,love,and shalom!
