It's scary. Sometimes it's embarrassing. I'm feeling all the feels. However, I'm prayerful and I'm happy to be alive. That's the goal. Stay alive. #MommyFab #EfabulousHB
The trauma of being a Black Mother in America…
You try and teach optimism to your children, when as a Black American in the United States - you have very little optimism left about equality and enjoying your humanity. #MommyFab
The Soul gets more beautiful with age
The soul is on a quest for peace. #MommyFab #EfabulousHB
And then there was just ME
It is always down to you. No one else and you have to get it done because a small human who loves you unconditionally depends on you and you are their world. That's an honorable, loving and very serious cross to bare. #MommyFab #EfabulousHB
