What’s your favorite cartoon?
Scooby Doo
I hated cartoons. My siblings use to fly down the stairs to watch their favorite ones.
I enjoyed mystery stories. That’s what attracted me to Scooby doo and the gang. They use to always find out who the bad guys were. Sometimes I would be shocked but most times I knew. Every time the music comes on it excites me, still to this day. It reminded me to put on my thinking caps as my 3rd grade teacher would say.
Share five things you’re good at.
Great question for ALL to answer. Communication. 🤏🏾 Solving Problems.✅ Listening. 👂🏾Staying out the way. 🙅🏾♀️ Blocking people who mean me no good. 😳
What is one thing you would change about yourself?
How naive that I can be sometimes.
I started reading the Bible when I was a very young girl. Our parents bought us children Bible stories book and I loved the way it made me feel about people and so I would be nice to everyone. Even as I became an adult I realized very quickly people wasn’t like the stories I read in the Bible. People would always betray me or take advantage of me. I thought that everyone was suppose to be nice and kind to each other. I found out that people are people.
If I could change one thing, it would be to not be so trusting. But to be nice and kind because I want too.
What’s the first impression you want to give people?
Friendliest
That I’m friendly and come in PEACE. I want a person to report back to God just that. I like to set the atmosphere when you come into my presence. My smile is the flashlight to my personality and my Character. Being friendly is my favorite person to be.
What will your life be like in three years?
My life in three years will be that I move into a huge home with my mom my 3 Siblings, their husbands and wives live all under the same roof with plenty of room to spread out.
I have a close family and we all want to take care of our mom together. All of our children are grown and gone. Our home would be a place where we gather and meet up anytime we want. We’ll take turns making dinners, loving on each other and planning game nights.
If the Lord say the same it shall be done.
What are your favorite websites? My favorite Websites is Walmart! I worked for them for 15 years. I was a cashier, and a self-checkout host! I absolutely loved it. There wasn’t a day that went by that I didn’t walk out without purchasing something.
I left the start of the pandemic. When it was time to go back I had started my own candle business.
Walmart is definitely my Fav.
When my now 38 year old daughter was in elementary I loved kids so much that I worked at her elementary school from Preschool to her 4th grade.
I would work as a teacher assistant, and also the playground and gym when the teachers were on lunch. I loved how kids would run up to me and give me hugs, and tell me that I was their play mom because not only was I motherly but I listened to them. I heard everything they said.
One of the gurls would always look sad. She was well dressed and her hair was always done. She was one of my favorites. When she entered the playground she came straight to me. I could tell that something was going on with her. So one day I asked her. What’s wrong sweetie? She told me that her adoptive mother beat her. She would get in trouble a lot and this went on for a while. I would listen to her daily. I was shocked. But for the life of me the person I am today can’t understand why didn’t I do more to help her. I think about her all the time now. I wonder if she’s still alive, if she ever gotten the help she needed. Is she Okay mentally? Does she have a family?
I feel that I failed her. I feel like I was so wrapped up in the love I showed the kids that I didn’t do anything to help her. I don’t remember if I asked her if she told her teacher or others. I just remember that I didn’t help.
This stays on my mind a lot as we see so many kids abused these days. Back then there were no cellphones and no internet yet.
Please share your thoughts.
I would love to see her today, hug her and tell her how sorry I am that I didn’t do more to help her. ❤️❤️❤️
What’s something you believe everyone should know.
I want everyone to know that Jesus is going to crack the sky. Pray, REPENT, Believe and know that it’s going to happen. Be ready. Don’t have so much fun here that you don’t think about what’s to come. Be ready and watch.
Let’s live forever!
Describe a family member.
My Mother
I am the oldest of 4. When we came home from school she was always home. We loved that. She would greet us with hugs and kisses. I loved them so much. Her hugs could take away ANY financial situation. Yea, that good.
She made sure she had dinner ready. She knew we would be hungry. And when our dad came in, he always had snacks for us. I can hear her saying now, “stop bringing these kids snacks everyday, they don’t need that”. He would bring them anyway.
One thing about my mom, she didn’t play. She would tell us something one time, maybe two and that was it!!! She wasn’t the kind of mom who hollered or raised her voice. She always spoke with a tone which was calming and to the point. She would give us “the eye” and what she wanted done was done. I loved that about her, because I became that same person raising my daughter. We took turns spending time with her one on one. That made us feel special then and now that we’re adults. I believe that is why we all have a special relationship with her today.
Every one of our friends loves her. She’s the kindest, sweetest person you could ever meet.
My Siblings always claim that I’m her favorite. ❤️❤️❤️ Truth is she loves us all. I love you mommy.
