KINDERGARTEN AND THE VELVET ROPE

IF YOU KNOW ME AT ALL YOU KNOW THAT I THINK THE NEW OBSESSION IS CHILDREN. ANYONE WHO CAN THINK OF A HIGH END BABY PRODUCT CAN SCAM THEIR WAY INTO ALOT OF MONEY. NOT TO MENTION THE PROMISE OF READING BABIES AND TURNING YOUR THIRD GRADER IN TO A MATH GENIUS FOR $19.99.



DON'T GET ME WRONG THO, THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH RAISING A HIGH ACHIEVER. IF YOU HAVE A CHILD WITH A NATURAL THIRST TO LEARN, NURTURE IT BY ALL MEANS. IF YOU GOT ONE THAT NEEDS PUSHING, PUSH AWAY. MOST GREAT PEOPLE… Continue

Buttons and Pocket Change

My body says

She works harder than before

At the end of the night

When the lights should be off

My children are dreaming

And the silence around

Sounds a lot like hunger pains



I am usually grocery shopping

It helps me think clearer...to unwind

Helps to know my kids will

Awake to smell a good morning

Gives my heart songs of joy to hear

"Momma, what are you cooking?"



Not all mornings smell

Buttermilk syrupy

Scents… Continue

or stay...remember with me the fresh in our love...our…

Love At First Sight

I want to know how many people out there believe in love at first sight. Like I found myself just recently thinking about the concept. And find myself believing it to be true. When you meet someone and share a strong connection and feel drawn to them and can"t explain why. When the energy between the two of you is so electric and just to look in each others eyes is almost too much for the both of you. And you can't imagine not having them in your life for as long as you both…

Her Best Friend

As her best friend

I don't feel obligated to love her

I feel blessed

Kissed by heaven

Given freedom to share love

As human to woman

From the heart of

Her best friend



In her insecurities

She believes she is a burden

Searches for something to be wrong

Compares what we share to what is familiar

Found a reason to doubt now

Believes I am the enemy

Count wrong doings

Leave them for footstools

Unbeknownst to me she… Continue

I wouldn't have known as early if it wasn't for.....................

As a newbee to the site I would first like to thank my #1 Philly Dude Mustafa for introducing me to the wonderful sound/talent and one of my FAVORITE groups of all time Kindred the Family Soul.

I look forward to continue supporting. Until later......

Car Search or Search for Self?

Let me start by saying this is one of them (child, I need to woosah <---and I just added that word to my computer's dictionary) blogs! You know the blogs, that may go on and on however you hope will be understood? This is one of them.



So, here goes...



My children and I have been fortunate enough to live in the same community for 10 years. To some, this may seem like nothing, however for us (especially me), it is a lot! As a child, my family and I moved around a lot.… Continue

My Official First Blog...

As I sit here, wondering what I should make my first blog about, my first thought is..don't embarrass my brother Fatin on his newly created social venue. When I made that rule, it became easy to think of something...so here it goes, wish me luck...





Today my wife, Celeste, went to register our son Xavier for kindergarten next school year. When she texted me about how excited she was in doing so, it got me to thinking, (as I've done on so many occasions), Damn I am somebody's… Continue

THE END OF AN ERA

Not One Day









My mother (a 47

year old Grandmother) asked me: "How has it felt to be a

Mother for 17 years?" With a smile on my face I replied: "Amazing!"Sure, many days I didn't think I'd last past noon let alone the end of the day. Nevertheless, the joy of being a mother is undoubtedly irreplaceable!



When I gave birth to Devohn at the young age of

14, I had no idea what I was in for. Or that I was a part of a good and… Continue

SPARE THE ROD

OKAY SO FATIN AND I HAVE A FUNDAMENTAL DIFFERENCE IN OUR APPROACH TO KIDDIE DISCIPLINE. RICHARD PRYOR JOKED THAT IF HE EVER SAW THE TREE THAT HIS SWITCH WAS PULLED FROM HE'D PULL IT UP FROM THE ROOTS. THE MOVIE ANTOINE FISHER SUGGEST THE CULTURALLY AGGRESSIVE NATURE OF AFRICAN AMERICANS WHILE DISCIPLINING THEIR CHILDREN IS A SYMPTOM OF SLAVERY AND THE STRICT AND CRUEL CONDITIONS OF OUR HISTORY HERE. I HAD A MOTHER WHO WOULD MORE LIKELY SEND YOU TO THE CORNER THAN PULL OUT A BELT BUT NOW THAT I… Continue
