Do you love to read? If you don’t, you should! #sponsored This school year is epically different than the years prior and now more than ever, our kids will be looking to us to feel connected. Muffin and I love to read together and today we want to encourage you to read, share, and connect with us through amazing apps like @epic4kids! Epic is the leading digital reading platform for kids. They have over 40,000 amazing books to choose from for ages 12 and under. Muffin is pretty early in her reading career, so we do lots of team reading. She especially likes to look at the pictures and make up her own story before we tackle reading the words on the page. Reading together always sets us up for a great time! #ReadShareConnect #Epic4Kids #sponsored (at Phoenix, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/CG2bBLLlx9O/?igshid=1otymgmfyi02b

Sunday Funday ✨🚲 How did you spend this beautiful Sunday? We sold so much stuff in preparation for this move; but one that I particularly felt bad about was Muffin’s bike! My girl loves to go bike riding; and she can go for miles too. 👏🏽 After a couple of weeks of shopping, I bought her this beautiful bike. It goes perfectly with her bright and bubbly personality. It was delivered while I was working on Friday and I came home and put it together all by myself. After being bit on my thumb by a kitty and hurting several other fingers during the assembly process. 🥴 Her happy face after seeing it assembled was all the reward I needed. 💛 Today was my first time escorting her on a bike ride in our new neighborhood and let me tell you, it was perfect. 💞 I hope that you all are being safe and having a wonderful holiday weekend! #sundayfunday #sundayfunday☀️ #3dayweekend #schwinn #schwinnbikes #sundayvibes #labordayweekend #bikeride #bikeriding #motherhood #motherhoodjourney #motherhoodintheraw #blackgirlmagic #blackmothers #squallymuffin #gigithechinesecrestie #makingmemories❤️ #familytimeisthebesttime #itsthelittlethingsinlife #phoenixarizona #santanvalley #santanvalleyaz #eastvalleyaz #eastvalley #arizona #arizonalife #arizona🌵 #mothersofdaughters #bikeriders #preschoolathome (at San Tan Valley, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/CE0Vl3ZFuhW/?igshid=1xyezcjl8f4k1

This fall is not going to be like any other before it; nonetheless kids still need the proper nutrition to learn, grow, and use their imaginations! We’re prioritizing spending time outside with friends when possible. It always astounds me the depths of imaginative play that kids will display when given the tools for success! Today’s tool is @CLIFKid’s Chocolate Chip Zbars (which areSmart Snack compliant!) CLIF Kid Bars are an USDA organic, oat-based energy bar. Obviously they taste, but what you can’t taste is the 10-12g of whole grains in every bar: plus it’s a great source of fiber! Check out my stories to see more cute pictures of the #CLIFKidCrew and get a promo code for 20% off your own Bar Variety Pack! https://www.instagram.com/p/CEC4Buslbrq/?igshid=1bn8jzf5hxlfq

I’ll start: we’re alive and well! That’s makes me smile. 😁 Even though there’s a lot of change in our near future, we’re ready to face it head on with big smiles just like this! Especially when we want to cry. 😅🙃😄 ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ #blackgirljoy #blackgirlhairstyles #mondaymotivation #mondaymood #mondayvibes #alwayssmile #behappyandsmile #youdeservethebest #squallymuffin #blackdaughters #blackgirlsrock #blackgirlmagic #naturalhair #melaninpoppin #blackisbeautiful #laughter #laughoutloud #blackmentalhealthmatters #blackmentalhealth #blackmentalwellness #blackisbeautiful #blackmotherhood #blackmothersmatter #blackmothersbelike #blackmomskillingit #blackmomsbelike #motherhoodunplugged #motherhoodrising #motherhoodjourney #motherhoodthroughinstagram (at Monday Motivation) https://www.instagram.com/p/CD_nZxyF12M/?igshid=1fzdhjbe6f13p

#AD Today is going to be #EggceptionallyGreat! With fall quickly approaching, we’re all trying to get “back to” normal. I don’t know about you, but this will be an entirely new normal for us in every respect! What does your new normal look like? One thing I for sure want to prioritize in this new normal is eating healthier snacks. It’s easy to do that with @greatdayfarms Hard-Boiled Eggs! I picked up a 2-pack from my local #Walmart’s Deli section for such an amazing price! They also have a 6-pack, which may or may not be in my refrigerator too... Sometimes I just eat the eggs & other times I quickly add them to a salad to add some more protein: either way, I can’t beat the convenience of them when they’re priced so deliciously! You can be Eggceptionally Great with Great Day Farms too by swiping up in my stories or clicking the link in my bio! (at Back to Work!) https://www.instagram.com/p/CD4jygZFA4N/?igshid=73vb3rve9c3e

Rest in love Bella, aka Cute. 🐭🌈 You don’t have to pretend that everything is okay anymore, sweet girl. You put up a GREAT fight despite every thing. I know you would’ve kept fighting even longer if we asked you to, but we couldn’t let you suffer anymore. 💔 You got me through undergrad and veterinary school. You befriended everyone you met and gave everyone new perspective about ferrets. Going to Home Depot just won’t be the same without you. 😭 There’s not another ferret in this world like you and we will make sure that every ferret we have after you KNOWS what big shoes they have to fill. As a veterinarian, I’m at peace with death, but that doesn’t make this any easier. We love you Bella. My first daughter. My best friend. My partner in crime. Life just won’t be the same without you. 😭 (at Knoxville, Tennessee) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDmkifHFzPE/?igshid=xtdyng9akj92

Challenge Accepted ✔️ We are strong, but we become empowered when we show up for each other. I’m not sure where this challenge originated, but I’m always down for uplifting and support my fellow women. I’m smiling in this photo, but if you knew what I was going through that day... I had EVERY reason not to smile. I had every reason to crawl into the bed and hide under my covers and not show up, but I showed up for my friends which in turn allowed me to show up for MYSELF. I will continue showing up for myself and others because you never know what it is that you may say or do that will give someone else the encouragement that they need to continue pressing on. If you are in need of a push today, allow me to be that shoulder that you lean on today. You are smart. You are capable. You are beautiful, inside and out. You are valuable. You are wonderful. You are perfectly imperfect; and I love you. 🖤 I was nominated by a few wonderful women: @margalooo, @itschelsee, @radiantchild__, & @valerienboone. Thank you ladies. 🖤🤍 (at Oklahoma City, Oklahoma) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDMIcuglB7B/?igshid=1qmtyhiwbagz5
