You must make a message out of your Mess.

     Its been a while my loves:).  I decided to share with you a message that is dear to my heart. I meet so many new people in my line of work and  I continue to gather that low self esteem is a huge problem in our community. Women are having a hard time leaving the past in the past because they are surrounded by reminders of their "past".  Its not only getting  harder to move on in life after making some poor choices but i find that most women are ashamed to come to God for fear that they are not good enough. If we continue to live in the past how then can we raise kids and teach them about having great self esteem? Mothers are the backbone of the home. When a mother lacks self confidence it rubs off on the kids. Let nomamipikin be left out of the Great self confidence checklist.

So I  recently participated in a segment on http://www.thechildrenofdestiny.com/c.o.d-media.html called 
" REAL TALK WITH THE CHILDREN OF DESTINY " ( check children of destiny out, its a huge resource and a big part of keeping me a sane mamipikin) www.thechildrenofdestiny.com 

Here with the question i got from one of the listeners:  
" My life is a mess. I have made too many mistakes. I have slept around, gossiped and had multiple abortions. I would like to get close to God but i am not ready. As sick as my life is right now, it's still mine. I am overwhelmed and i don't know where to start. Am I too far gone? "

Here with my answer: 
I hope it blesses someone. 

(Click on the link below to listen to my answer)

 "  You have to find a way to confront and accept life lessons in mistakes of your past, once you have done that no one else is allowed or will be able to hold them over your head. People like to hold you in the past because it makes them close their eyes to your current growth. God is not looking for a perfect child, he is looking for a child who understands that perfection in found only in him." 
Eurykah Fon Ndumu 


Let Nomamipikin be left behind.  You must make a message out of your Mess.


 My 5 year old son asked me how where he could "get" a girlfriend from? Does anyone know? Wizkid and I are still looking for Caro from December last year.

Kisses,

Birthday Moments #nomamipikinleftbehind

This is how it all started. With complete submission to him that has taken me this far.

This is a #nomamipikinleftbehind post.
I actually got the chance to celebrate my birthday for two whole weeks. I want other mothers to know that it is ok to celebrate you. There is nothing wrong with giving yourself a treat. We work extremely hard all year round so why not?

There's life left in me. Post stretchmarks, back pain, painful labor, weight gain, life changing labor pain, financial changes,  and a lot more. There's life left in me after going through this 3 times, my children are the number one reason i choose to live a FULL LIFE everyday. I refuse to be a sad mother, we have a lot of sad mothers because they have forgotten how to live a full life post having kids. Live a full life if not for you, for the sake of your kids. A mother who doesn't get a chance to recharge is not living a full life. Your children need their full time parent.
(FYI.. if you are getting help from family to raise your kids, DO NOT FEEL GUILTY! You most likely need the help to get recharged and that's the best choice for you and your children at this time and yes its  just OK)









The Original #nomamipikinleftbehind ( mi madre )

Turn down for what?
     Thanks  to my "external" and "internal" committee for making this a memorable birthday Celebration for me. A special thanks to my Husband who just smiled at every step of this birthday week, You are indeed the one man for me.
LET #nomamipikinleftbehind

( I must add; this is what made me happy, it might be something else for you, what ever it is, do not let this year pass you by.)



Love you all.
Kisses

My Extra-ordinary birthday PT ONE

  
  
     I don't know where to start from. I will like to have pictures of my mother when she was pregnant and line up my entire life story but then that will be a story for another blog right?
So here I am at 29 years old. Yes 29 the jury is out because some people think i am much older or have actually argued that there is no way i am just 29, hahaha anyhow thats a story for later, aren't people entitled to their opinions?

     
Thanks to My mother,Mafor Edwan and my dad my love Pa Fon for bringing into this world. A special thanks to my aunt "Ma Pay " who has played a huge role in raising me and is still my number one girl. 
 
     So i decided to take the time off and actually celebrate ME this year for my birthday. I spend a greater part of my year celebrating others and never really get a moment to stop and celebrate me.

     I started the Birthday Celebrations with the best Gift ever from my sister in law and Pastor. We had a blast at the HelpPromoTour concert ( Erica Campbell ) one half of Mary Mary. Now if you know me you know I LOVE them. Thats not all God had in store  for us he also  had my all time favorite Minister,Tasha Cobbs. It  all started when we were moved from the back and  got to sit and praise with the Artist immediatefamily ....


Front row praise is how i want to praiseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Yes Lord!



  I am more than blessed at 29, I have 3 children,married my best friend, my family is irreplaceable, i have the best set of friends, I am working in my purpose,have great health and a whole lot more. 
 I am definitely thankful to God. All i want this year is to  follow his word for my life. If one person can look at me and say i did it because of you that will be enough for me. 

Let NOMAMIPIKIN BE LEFT BEHIND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 kisses :)
