Begin @ Home

Hi Moms:
I was so honored and surprised to see my editorial printed in the In-Box section of the October 2014 issue of Essence Magazine - WOW! My comments came from an article titled Moms on the Front Lines where African-American Moms shared how they advocate in their communities. Here's what I wrote:
As a member of the National Parent Teacher Association's Communication Committee, it was awesome to see other African-American women in "Moms on the Front Lines".  However, you don't have to be on the national stage to make an impact.  Begin at home in your own backyard. Every little bit makes a big difference!

Stand Tall

Hi Moms:

I’ve noticed even in 2014, the definition of being a woman still has some blurred lines. It isn’t being meek and submissive to abuse and it’s not sexting nude pictures to your boyfriend.  Being a woman means showing confidence; self respect. It means letting people know what you stand for and what you won’t stand for.  Let’s show a positive example for our girls to follow.

The Little Things

Hi Moms:

September is National Self Improvement Month. A great time to make some great changes. Maybe we can improve our focus by not taking things for granted. I'm grateful I woke up this morning, because a lot of people didn't.  What makes you grateful?
