Sometimes I feel like a nut and sometimes I don’t and today, I’m feelin’ pretty darn nutty. I admit, most days I find myself in a rut…lookin’ and feelin’ homely from head to toe. Those are my lazy days, my I-don’t-give-a-rats-@ss kinda day where I sit at home in the pajamas that I woke up in to spend countless amount of hours watching reality tv shows, consuming tv dinners and catchin’ up on TiVo. Embarrasingly enough, those days are frequent, but not today! I feel good today, and tonight I feel like puttin’ on my favorite pumps and gettin’ my hair did for a night out in the city!
Whatever the occasion is, whether there is one or not, and even if I’m having my I-don’t-give-a-rats-@ss kinda day or not I’m always in the mood for some yummy eye candy and for me, it means style sightings on my favorite sites like Polyvore. It’s kinda like window shopping without the window, and because shopping is my favorite pastime and because it’s Fashion Forward Friday, I thought I would share with you what I bought with my imaginary money when I went window shopping today…
I’m off to go see Taylor Hicks in the performance of Grease, but before I do that I wanted to wish all of you mother’s a relaxing, enjoyable and most of all…a fulfilling Mother’s Day because it’s well deserved! I remember vividly my thoughts on having children when I was young and a bit naive. I was 17, and I decided that it wasn’t for me and stood firm on never having kids and I was sure about it. So sure, my mind was set and that was it.
It’s funny how things change, how we change and how our minds change. I was 25 and 5 years into a relationship when things took a turn. I felt my biological clock ticking and had a distinct instinct. The maternal kind, that wouldn’t go away. It felt natural and I was ready mentally and emotionally. I wanted it and I wanted to finally bear a child and be a mother…the best mother. My mind was set and that was it.
5 years and a daughter later, there’s a package with “Happy Mother’s Day” written all over it in crayon. The Crayola kind, and it wasn’t for anyone else but me. As excited as Mya was to see me open it, I was even more excited. I began to open the package and before I could catch a glimpse of what it was, Mya yelled “It’s a crown! It’s a crown!” Comical. It was actually a tulle hairpiece and the perfect accessory for Mother’s Day. Well…at least that’s what Mya thought because she insisted that I wear it all day today so I can have it on when she makes me a Mother’s Day party. Her mind was set and that was it.
What did your lil’ one(s) bring home for you this Mother’s Day?

A Mya Monday brought to you by: Daddy
Wow! I look back at these photos, and I realize how time flies. It feels like this day was just a short time ago. It’s actually been a whole year though. I realize my baby has become a little toddler. It blows me away everyday to see how far my little girl has come. I see Mya coming home from school with worksheets, sounding out words, and trying to write her name and I am amazed. Mya and Navy are the best things to happen to me and bring joy to my life everyday. Seeing all the photos Navy takes of Mya and our family truly helps me appreciate all the special moments we have had. Thank you Navy!
Awwww soooky soooky nowwww!!! Long time…no see, but you know me love you long time, so here’s a sneaky peaky of what’s to come…
If you’ve got a dog named after a fashion icon, she must be fabulous. She must be. Why? It’s an unwritten rule and it’s a requirement…it just is! So without further ado, I give to you the fantabulous Chanel…
