Today's The Beauty of Melanie a Celebration of SISTARhood is CaTina Taylor!!! CaTina and I met on Facebook. I would see all these post about this KC Dreams Kindergarten Program. Since I am homeschooling I didn't give it a second thought.
However that all changed after a series of inbox message exchanges between CaTina and I. We talked about how the connection between what you eat and how the brain works. I was completely amazed and intrigued by this,not many people understand this especially pertaining to how children learn. Trust me there is a HUGE connection.
That's when CaTina invited me to cook for her school. I was very humbled by the request. However I told my hubby she might not want me after I tell her want I won't and don't cook(my holistic stand...lol). I was like ok CaTina here's the deal...
1.I don't cook meat,fish,chicken,beef,and definitely not pork!
2. I don't cook eggs or use cow's milk.
3. I don't use salt(if I do it's small amounts of pink himalayan salt)
4.I don't cook with Lord or butter.
5.I prefer to use live/raw foods,with spices and the like from my garden.
I told hubby,I don't think I got the gig when I didn't hear from CaTina after a couple days! However about five days before the launch of her School she was like Sunni that is PERFECT and exactly what I am looking for. You got the job if you want it,so as they say the rest is history.
It has been a TRUE pleasure working for her. All the love,compassion, hard work, blood, sweat,and tears she's poured into her dream has been a real inspiration to me and so many others. Catina's interaction with the children is a T-R-U-E testament to the love she has for making REAL change in our education system here in KC.
I feel so blessed, humbled, and honored to be apart of her vision and history in the making. Not only is CaTina living her dream,she's helping me fullfil my dream as well of giving health holstic, Vegan and Vegetarian meal to my community. I feel that if we start children eating healthy young,it because apart of them. In turn they can help educate their parent's so on,and so forth.
So Catina I can't thank you enough for all you do. I know this is just the beginning, Yah willing I pray I'll be on your team helping you change the world. The Best Is Yet To Come CaTina! I pray for you daily that Abba Yah continues to bless you and your vision. Light,live,and shalom!
