It's A Family Affair









Hello, to all the readers of my personal blog. I am so excited about sharing who inspires me with each of you. Truly, I have been blessed with one of the greatest blessings - " MY FAMILY!" Without a doubt, I know that my husband, son, mother, father, three sisters, and two nieces are special gifts from God. Never in my life did I ever believe that I would find the happiness and joy that I have found in my family. They are the treasures that I hold most dear in my daily living. Without all of them, my life would be a little less complete.







On a daily basis, I am so privileged to enjoy a life filled with many aspects of love. Whether it be the good morning kisses from my husband or the snuggly tight hugs I receive from our son. Nothing beats the way they show their affection and appreciation for me in their lives. Being valued and respected is something that is purposely demonstrated in their daily actions towards me. WOW, I cherish every moment that I share with them! They are definitely "my greatest love."

My mother and father are wonderful parents. Knowing that I have their continuous support means a lot to me. Whenever I need advice or a helping hand, they are always there to assist me. My parents are so inspirational. They are devoted Christians and love lending a helping hand to those who are in need. Not only do they display their love for their children, they make great sacrifice in serving others too. I am so grateful for the life lessons and experiences they have guided me through. Without them, I would not be the woman I am today.








Being the oldest of four sisters is awesome! My little sisters are the best! LaTarsha, Tammy, and Camille are all "jewels; unique in their own special way. Anytime I need them, they are right there. Never critical; always understanding. Each of them are a source of confidence to me when I need it most. They inspire me to be all that "I Can Be." I love them all! It is a daily ritual for us to talk and get together. If one day passes, we know that somethings wrong. We are so close nitted. We have a rare bond between us that cannot be separated. They are all inspirational in motivating and helping me be successful in the BSOL program. Anytime I have an assignment or paper due for class, they are always ready, willing, and available to help their big sister out. I really appreciate and love my little sisters!






My two nieces are too precious; my little angels! LaTanfernee and Lai Marie are so much fun to be around. Teenager (16) vs Toddler (3). Oh, what a scene! There is always a loud "Hey, T.T" when I enter the room. Both of them race to see who can give me "love" first. It makes me proud to know that they love me so much. On weekends, we are always shopping, bowling, at the movies, playing at Chuck-E-Cheese or Incredible Pizza, or dining at a restaurant. I feel honored to be LaTanfernee and Lai Marie's aunt.

Hopefully, you have enjoyed this overview of my greatest inspiration - "my family." Until tomorrow, remember that nothing is more precious, valuable, and important than the gift of your family. Love them and treasure them forever. God bless!
