My life. My world. Love, hope, peace, joy & happiness.
Lately, I have been intentionally stepping outside my comfort zone, doing new things, and meeting new people. I’m absolutely loving this space over 50. I will be 52 in exactly three weeks.
God is so good.
I am truly, truly blessed.🥰

Good Morning☀️
How are you?
I pray that you’re well.🌸
By the way—Welcome to my Birthday Month!😌🎉
For those who don’t know, I LOVE celebrating my birthdays, and I usually celebrate the entire month of June. So, if you don’t like people being extra, you may need to mute me because I tend to celebrate any and everything. Lol. Listen, if a butterfly happens to cross my path and I smile (all it takes is a smile), baby, that’s God’s gift to me and ONLY me.☺️ Yeah… prepare to be sick of me.
I love life.
I love my birthdays.
And I absolutely love my God.
Now that I’m getting older, every day and every year I’m alive feels more and more special. Just knowing that I am still here, and that I am surrounded by love, makes my heart sing praises to my God. Father, I thank You.🙏🏽
The theme I chose for Year51 was “Beyond Blessed,” and I am blessed. I am truly, truly blessed. I’m not sure what this coming year’s theme will be. I still have a few weeks to come up with something. Until then, I hope you’ll stick around and celebrate my month with me. And to everyone celebrating a birthday in June—Happy Birthday Month to YOU! Let’s celebrate!!🎉
I pray you have the most amazing day! May it be filled with pure, unconditional love, indescribable peace, and an abundance of joy. YOU deserve it!♥️
I love you,
Shaun
Good Morning☀️
How are you?
I hope you’re doing fabulous!🌸
This Facebook memory from three years ago has me smiling.
“YOU are worthy of God’s absolute best. You don’t have to settle for less.”
When I look back over my adulthood, I can list times when I settled for “good enough.” That job was “good enough” because it paid the bills. That relationship was “good enough” because I didn’t have to be alone—but I felt lonely (Whew!). My life was “good enough” because wanting more meant stretching myself and becoming uncomfortable.
I’m smiling because I can see how my life has changed over the past few years, especially since turning 50. That’s when I stopped settling for “good enough” and began striving for THE BEST—the best for ME. Now, my “best” may not be your idea of the best, and that’s okay. For a long time, I made decisions based on what others thought was best for me, leaving me feeling miserable. Y’all, trying to live up to other people’s expectations will drain you mentally as well as physically. Believe me, you breathe a lot easier when you dance to the beat of your own drums. PLUS, I don’t know about you, but God won’t let me settle for less than His best. He just won’t.
Today is the last day of May, which is significant in so many ways. For me, it’s the day that one cycle ends and another begins. Tomorrow, I enter my 52nd birthday month. Praying that God graces me with immeasurable favor and that He blocks every weapon meant to hinder or destroy me or my progression. May He cover me with His love and surround me with His peace and joy. Amen
Repeating my affirmation from three years ago (please feel free to do the same):
“I am worthy. Yes, ME. I am worthy of God’s best.”
I pray you have a wonderfully blessed day. May God’s love and peace surround you and your family.♥️
I love you,
Shaun
Good Morning☀️
The countdown to my 52nd birthday has officially begun. Yay!!!🎉 Although it’s two months away, I’m already excited like it’s happening next week or in a few days. For those who don’t know, I love celebrating my birthdays. No matter the age, I still feel like a little kid turning a year older. I’m not entirely sure what I’ll do this year. However, whatever I decide to do will be wonderful because I will make it so.🥰 I’m thinking a floral theme this year—something light and summery.😊🌸
Yessss… Year52 is loading!!!🙌🏽🎉🤩
Wishing you a glorious day!♥️
I love you,
Shaun
Today, we celebrated my youngest nephew’s first birthday. He’s our leap year baby! His parents decided they would celebrate his birthday on February 28th each year until the 29th rolls around again.
Last year was a roller coaster ride for him and my sister. My sister had to be induced a week early due to preeclampsia. A few days after giving birth, she began experiencing shortness of breath, so she went to the emergency room. Well, without consulting with OB/GYN, the ER doctor diagnosed her with acute heart failure, released her (said there was nothing he could do), and referred her to a heart specialist. The next day, she called her doctor and was readmitted for preeclampsia. It wasn’t heart failure. Talk about a frightening and emotional time! After receiving the proper care, she was released a few days later. A couple of days after that, the baby was diagnosed with jaundice.
The first few weeks of his life were very eventful. Now, here we are a year later, and everyone’s healthy. God is good.♥️
Today would’ve been my mom’s 67th birthday.🎉
For her 60th, we took her to see The Black Panther, and she loved it! Gave it two thumbs up. Fun times.🥰
So very thankful for the 49 years we had together. I miss you, Momma.♥️🥰♥️
