Walking into a week of uncertainty with confidence and joy. 2020 has been like walking the plank, if I'm being honest. Yet, I always thank God that in spite of the chaos that surrounds me, I am surrounded by His love. Taking heart today that everything that is happening is not only for a reason, but it's for my good. >> You can find deets on this look on the @liketoknow.it app!

My quarantine crew. ❤️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⚡️We stayed in.
⚡️We sacrificed.
⚡️We had hard conversations.
⚡️We missed out on celebrations with friends.
⚡️We had many frustrating moments.
⚡️We have no family nearby.
⚡️We chose our health over everything and chose to do school from home.
⚡️We had even more conversations about race. Even with our oldest child - in a way she could understand - bc trying to “shelter our child” does her a huge disservice.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
...but even though this year was far from what we expected or even wanted...
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨We found new ways to entertain ourselves mindfully.
✨We were still able to connect with friends in a different way, whether it was virtually or just for a quick moment of play.
✨We learned the ins and outs of what makes us operate as the best family.
✨We got rest & enjoyed the slower moments as much as we could.
✨We truly understand the deeper meaning of being a family.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2020 hasn’t been easy for us whatsoever. Many days we felt lonely or isolated. We missed just being with friends and family like normal. Nevertheless, 2020 not only made us dig deeper into knowing the Lord, but the year gave us the opportunity to grow & learn together.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And even though I personally want to toss 2020 against a wall, I’d be lying if I didn’t acknowledge the pain the year brought truly changed everything for us. It’s not all good, but we hold to God’s promise that it’s all working together for our good.

I hope when I show them pictures of their time together at home, they know how much they were loved, cared for & covered in prayer every single day. That their parents did their absolute best to take care of themselves & their mental health first as individuals so they could be & feel their best to face the day. To know that keeping them home is not just for their safety, but because they are loved tremendously. >> http://liketk.it/2O2Jz @liketoknow.it #liketkit

"Luna" & "Elle" - born 3 years & 10 days apart and play like they've known each other for 25 years. From the moment we became a family of 4, these two have not missed a beat. Their giggles, laughs, high-pitch screams and even fights are full of love & passion. My prayer is that they will always be each other’s first best friend in every season of their lives. 📸: Me 🖤 >> Deets (& deals) on these cute outfits on the @liketoknow.it app 👉🏾 http://liketk.it/2LFug #liketkit

Social distancing, but make it fashion.

What a year 2020 has been, huh? So much has happened, is happening and will happen. Yet, I’m choosing to live in faith, paired with using sound judgement and wisdom.

We may be in for a while, but at least I can stay true to myself and keep it fly. Amiright? // Download the @liketoknow.it app in the App Store & add me (@blushingblack) to get the deets - and deals - on everything! #liketkit http://liketk.it/2LCIY

Time waits for no one. Liana is already cutting teeth, scooting on her belly & flipping over! She loves to talk & look deep into your eyes when speaking. She’s also the queen of FOMO & refuses for anyone to treat her like a baby! She wants to be in the middle of ALL the action, but also enjoys anything that has to do with her mama. 🍋🍋🍋 | Mamas: you know I LOVE a cute romper!

{5 Fun Facts Friday} 🧜🏾‍♀️💅🏽💗
•
I’m not a big movie watcher & usually will fall asleep watching. It has be a movie I genuinely care to sit through to watch it. I can honestly watch my classic faves over & over again & be satisfied. 🍿🎥
•
I’m an introvert. Wholeheartedly. I prefer an intimate circle of friends rather than a large crowd to mingle in. I’d rather have deep & intriguing conversations versus small talk. 💬
•
I can’t skate. Like at all. I’m so terrible at it & it’s pitiful. 🤣🙅🏾‍♀️
•
I took my very first flight alone when I was 8 years old to Chicago! Back when people could walk you to your gates & before cell phones existed! Things were wayyyy different back then. ✈️
•
I met my husband who I never knew existed in January 2009. We were engaged December 2009. I clearly was praying for a boyfriend at the start of the year & ended the year with a bigger blessing. 2009 was filled with so much fun, bursting with love & emotions. Meeting my husband was the best thing ever!
