Hey Love Bugs! Ya’ll good? Whatcha’ been up to? This post is a smidge longer than my usual ones.

There are so many questions and not enough answers to guide you. In the beginning, it felt like an emotional rollercoaster. First, it was self-blame, embarrassment, and depression that finally transitioned […]
Loving the Pride in My Child
In celebration of Pride Month, I want to give an appreciation post for my reason. They attend Berklee College of Music in Boston as a vocal major and minoring in recording and production. I am such a proud mom as they have come a very long way. They do not allow what others think or […]
