Enlighten Me

Wow, it's been a while since I have posted. We have been really busy and the moments we weren't busy, I was too exhausted to write. I hope you all are doing okay.

I can't believe I'll be 28 this year! What?! I am definitely excited about getting closer to 30. I believe 30 is an age of enlightenment for a woman. Everything seems to be so clear and defined. She knows herself, she is confident, sexy and not afraid to speak up. I feel a little bit of that now, but I look forward to that true awareness in 2 years. Now don't talk to me after age 30 because I don't know how I'm going to feel about that! LOL! Shoot, if we're gonna have another baby, we better start next year! I don't want to be 30 and pregnant (Not that it is a problem. It's just not my preference). The other day Desi was looking at a picture of a baby on his diaper box. He was talking to the baby. He very happily said, "Hold my hand baby." Then he said, "That's my baby mommy." I felt a little sadness tugging at my heart. In that moment, I saw flashes of Desi talking to stuffed animals and pictures on boxes throughout his childhood. He needs a brother or sister. After claiming that child on the box his own, Desi then says, "I want broder mommy." I was surprised he said that, so I had to ask him again for affirmation. Yes, that's exactly what my little 2-year-old said. What in the world does he know about that?! There was that tug at my heart again. But there is so much to consider. When I even say "baby," my poor husband gets as nervous as a cat in a room full of dogs! I don't know. I guess we shall see.

Well, let me get back to watching Curious George with baby boy. I love Fridays!!!

Night Night!

P.S. Please watch this cute little video!

Poop Catcher

Hello!! I've been gone for a while, but for good reason. I was studying for my state exam for my insurance license. I passed! I am now licensed to write and sell auto and home policies. Woo hoo! So I got my life back. Hubby was so great during this time. He took care of everything and supported me tremendously. Now, Desi was supportive as well. He would join in on my studies. "Want to study with chew mommy," he would say. When I passed, he said "Good job mommy! So proud of you!" (of course daddy coached him). It just warmed my heart. Anyway,  I have to share this hilarious story with you all. One night, earlier last week, we are trying to get Desi to poop in the toilet.  He just refused to sit his little butt down on the seat. We knew he had to poop, so we really wanted him to get on the toilet. My husband was speaking with his mother on the phone and she heard the commotion. She suggested that we just let him go pamperless for the night before going to bed. T...

Worried Father

The other day, Desi, my husband and myself were at my cousin's house visiting her and her two beautiful baby girls. Of course, all of the toys there were girly toys. Okay, so you get where I'm going with this right? The grown ups were talking in the kitchen when, all of a sudden, Desi runs in holding a Dora doll and a barbie doll. My poor husband was visibly horrified by the scene. I gave him that reassuring look and when Desi left, I said, "honey, it's okay. He doesn't know any different." Chris shook his head and disapprovingly said, "No, honey, those are dolls. He's playing with dolls."  My cousin and I just laughed. At Desi's age, a little boy playing with "girlie" toys is not really an issue. They are attracted to the colors. Also, look at the circumstances, he was in a house full of chicks. At home, he is all into his cars, airplanes and trains. Desi is fine and so are all the other little boys in the world that may be attra...

Who Are You My Beloved?

After watching a series of Iyanla Fix My Life episodes I felt compelled to write a post about who I am as a woman. Have I truly explored that question? Who is Aisha? I have all these parts that make up the whole but what is the whole? Let's break it down by the parts first. A part of me is: 1. A wife 2. A mom 3. A daughter 4. A sister These positions in life add to who I am. Now WHO AM I at my core? Here is what I am discovering: I am a woman who has a great deal of love and respect for Jehovah God. This is the biggest part of who I am. How I move in life, whether it be spiritually,  physically,  emotionally or mentally, is wrapped up in my relationship with Jehovah. I am a woman who cares about the well being of others and is moved to help where necessary. I do not like to be overbearing and I am very sensitive to others feelings. I am observant and intuitive. At times I can be proactive and at other times I can be reactive and I am okay with that. I am a woman that lo...
