When Your Baby Turns 18!
Hello Friends and Happy Saturday!
Eighteen years ago today, I gave birth to my 2nd son, al-Malik Glorian Blake and now I sit here wondering – WHERE DID THE TIME GO?????
People would often say, “cherish the moments because they go by fast”. I remember when I just wanted him to sleep through the night…to learn how to walk…to learn how to talk…to learn how to feed himself…to be potty trained…to start school…to get his driver’s license and after all that happened…this is him today ~ an 18 year old mini man!
HAPPY 18TH BIRTHDAY SON!

Where did the time go?
Hubby’s Birthday
Today 5 7 is my husband’s 57th birthday!
What did I get him?
NOTHING
Why?
Because for the past 25 years nothing that I’ve ever given him was good enough!
I am a CHEAP frugal shopper so he’s never used a single item that I’ve given him including gift certificates/cards.
Actually seven years ago I started giving him single dollar bills, and no not for what you’re thinking! I would give him a dollar for each year starting with a pack of 50. Most times he’d spend it on the boys, but this year he’s not even getting that because we just spent a bunch of money to replace the engine in Tayair’s old car to give to Malik. Of course we had to assign the car to him and because he had an accident last month it’s costing us an additional $350 month, therefore, no one gets any birthday money this or next year!
Happy Birthday Hubby!
alright…heading out to get ingredients for his birthday dinner….and maybe a Walgreen’s Gift Card…this year he just might use it!)
Have a fantabulous evening – Smooches!

Forever In My Heart
Forever In My Heart
I know that I’m not the only one who has lost someone far too young.
No matter how much time goes by, she will always be Unsung.
I often wonder how it would be if I could see her just one more time.
To see her face, feel her warm embrace or hear her laugh out loud.
God knows my heart breaks and just how long it takes to heal.
I love her more than anyone else no matter how it feels.
I don’t watch the videos to see her laugh and smile,
It’s much too much to handle and all I do is cry.
Today she would have been 50, but 29 was all she got, I miss and love you sweet Gloria, forever in my heart
