This morning is unlike any other morning. I feel a renewed sense of accomplishment, as well as love and support from my friends and family.

This week, I celebrated my thirty-first birthday – no biggie. I am appreciative of having another year to reflect on and it makes me smile. Of course, there were some bumps but those bumps make you laugh harder and smile grander when given the opportunity.

I love my life. I love my son, my puppy (when she isn’t leaving me little “presents” randomly around the house) and I love the individuals that have carved the person that is me. I am grateful to be here and to be loved by so many

(My son, Ade, took this picture – he wanted to name his photographic venture “Wolverine Photography” after a school project he drew depicting the superhero of the same name. Lol)
