============================================

It's a Blessed Morning.
Cold, Crisp and full of Potential.
I have the house to myself, this AM and a hot cup of chai.
Everyone is asleep & I'm messing on this thing [the net]
I wanted to update for Black History Month - because i really  think it's important
event.
I have one child,  but by 12:30, I will have  24 little busy hands.
We're making masks today! i better get cracking,in the kitchen
I have to make around 20 eggrolls  this morning for the game tomorrow night, and somehow
 ...Keep my Husband away from them, while i'm at the center working
with my little Picassos'.  That's going to be alot of wild & fun!
I took a break from the center right before I had my son, but now?
It's a good time to go back [to volunteering]  & give back.
Life has truly given a lot to me, We have to keep the creative vibe going with our reaching out to the youth
in the community.
so? Let the Day Begin, ! ~peace nadine.
