1- Briyana Amaya, 7- Holidays/Birthdays »
Briyana has been begging me for permission to straighten her hair for at least a year. She has been “over” her super-curly, typical biracial hair for far too long! Since she turned 10 last week, I decided to finally give in and buy her a flat iron to straighten her hair. I took her to WalMart and let her pick one out. She got a …

When the kids miss the bus, I often use our time stuck in the car line to snap a few shots of them before school. Here are a few of Avalyn, Talia, and Briyana from a few days ago:

At 10:31am yesterday, my oldest daughter became my first baby to reach a double-digit age. She turned ten years old. I cannot believe it’s been over a decade since we found out she was a girl… and then all of a sudden, she was born. She changed my life in ways I never expected. She was perfect. She was precious. She was my daughter… Time …

First of all, the question I find myself asking more and more frequently as the months WHIZ by me:
WHO IN THE HECK TOLD THESE KIDS
THEY ARE ALLOWED TO GROW UP!?
And, no – I don’t consider me whispering a silent, “Lord I can’t wait until they turn 18 so I can send them to COLLEGE!” to be expressed permission for them to grow up. I mean, …

Hmmm… whose plate is this? I think I’ll keep watch over it until they return :)
We are serious about our chicken around here LOL

This morning, as I began to develop a headache from listening to my two oldest daughters argue – yes, ARGUE – about saying their prayer together, I shouted, “FORGET IT! Your hearts are not in the right place. Don’t even worry about it. There’s no sense in you wasting 5 minutes of your life bickering with one another and then saying a quick, nonchalant shout-out …

Briyana has been unofficially designated as our Sweet Tea / Kool-Aid girl. She keeps us in plentiful supply of various refreshing liquids :) Last night, I was working… so I asked her to make some sweet tea, which she did. A few minutes later, I asked her to bring me some. She comes in with this itty bitty cup which the kids drink from when …

Monday was a big day for Briyana and Tre.
Briyana has been having vision problems and has been referred to an eye specialist to determine whether she needs glasses.
She didn’t know quite what to expect when they dilated her eyes,
but she was NOT very pleased to find out that the drops kinda stung.
Nope… she wasn’t happy about that at all LOL
It was all worth it to …

The kids are on the bus, headed to school… Talia starts 1st grade this year… Tre, 2nd… and Bryiana, 4th. Avalyn will start Pre-K next week. My babies aren’t ‘babies’ anymore – they are all growing up SO fast! Zoe will be the only kid here with me during the day, which will be nice but I’m realizing how quickly the time will arrive that …

Avalyn wasn’t going back outside cause there was a DOG. lol

I often attribute their bumps and bruises to them doing things they have been told not …
