Pastor Speaks Against Women Wearing Weaves
According to AmericaPreachers.com, Waco, TX Pastor A.J. Aamir, recently told his leadership committee that they should not be wearing weaves. Apparently the pastor believes that his members are focusing too much on “…what is on their heads, instead of what is in their heads.” “Long hair don’t care. What kind of mess is that? I don’t want my members so focused on what’s on their heads and not IN their heads” he told AmericaPreachers.com.” Does this mean that he is requiring the women of his church … Continue reading

Top 10 MUST HAVE Natural Hair Products (For My Kid)
I have tried a LOT of products on my natural hair since I went natural in 2006. My daughter, however, is a different story.

She wears mostly twists, twistouts, plaits and puffs. Here is my Top 10 List of Products that I use for her and … Continue reading

Atlanta Jazz Festival 2013
You never have to spend a lot of money in Atlanta to have fun. The Atlanta Jazz Festival is just another one of those fantastic events that caters to families.

Little Girls Need Daddies Too!
I love this picture so much. Its of my daughter and her father, my husband, at her graduation. I am nearly brought to tears every time I look at it. Seeing the confidence in her gaze and the security in her eyes as her father gently kisses her head… It opens old wounds for me of growing up without a father. It creates a longing for something that I never had. Paternal love. It brings me joy when I understand what she has. Paternal love. … Continue reading
