Being Present And At Peace
One of my themes for my fiftieth birthday year was, “Present and At Peace.” I shared the following on this day in 2023—
That was two years ago. Here’s what I’ve discovered since—
Yes, this is peace.♥️
Love you,

I Am Creating My Happiness
Four years ago, I wrote—
“I am the creator of my own happiness.”
Smiling because I am.☺️
Time is passing swiftly. Please don’t wait for the perfect moment to be happy. Be happy NOW! Take time to create your happy moment, NOW.♥️
I love you,

God’s Hugs and Kisses
Good Morning!☀️
I pray you’re doing well.🌸
I slept in this morning. Then, just as I was about to reprimand myself for slacking, God reminded me of His gift—His peace and blessings. This is the life He’s blessed me with. He’s given me this time and space to move as I please—time to shamelessly focus on me and only me.
As I mentioned last year, God’s blessings are like His hugs and kisses reminding us that we are His children. And I am taking it all in. I’m surrounding myself with His love, peace, and blessings.
I needed the extra sleep. I needed to wake up to the sunlight, not before it appeared. Usually, I would apologize for the late post, but not anymore. No more apologies. No more over explaining. I’m finally living in the space God’s graced me to be in, and I’m loving it.
This is Year52.🥰
I pray that you’ve allowed God’s hugs and kisses to find you. There’s nothing like being graced with His blessings.
This is all for now. Wishing you a magnificent day!♥️
I love you,
Shaun
Good Night (53)
Just dropping in to say “Good Night.”
So far, I’m really enjoying 52. I know it sounds crazy, but it already seems different—in a great way.
After a week of being catered to, I finally realized that my babies are grown and have their own lives and their own money. My siblings also have their own lives. My dad and stepmom have each other and are making it the best they can together, which leaves me to do my own thing. I feel like I have this revelation often, but I uncover a newfound freedom with each revelation, and it’s beautiful.
This is Year52…
The year of favor, overflow, and grace.
I pray you had a wonderful day. May your evening be restful and your dreams be beautiful.♥️
I love you always,
Shaun

Less Than Two Days Until Year52!
I’m back home! Had a wonderful time with my baby girl. The festivities began as soon as I arrived on Thursday, and by Friday evening, I was exhausted. Yesterday (Saturday), I asked if we could skip the plans and just hang out and go with the flow, and she was okay with that. Y’all, she had many more activities planned.
Here’s a brief recap of the past few days.
Thursday
I love a good baseball game, but only in person. I’m not a fan of watching it on TV. That evening, the Atlanta Braves played the New York Mets and won!🏆
Friday
On Friday, my daughter’s fiancé took me on a tour of his workplace before we went shopping. He works in tech support, and the view from his workspace is quite nice.
We finished the evening by visiting two of my favorite places to eat.
Saturday
My daughter made breakfast on Saturday morning. Afterwards, we hung out for a while and watched the latest episodes of Love Island USA. She loves reality shows. I just can’t get into them. Anyhoo… It was too hot to do anything else. However… we did walk down to a Brisket and Bourbon event they were having and picked up a rib plate and some cinnamon rolls.☺️
Then, last night, we had dinner at Culinary Dropout, a restaurant they had wanted to take me to during previous visits, but we never managed to visit it. I’m glad I finally went. The food was good.
This morning, I had a yogurt parfait and a BBQ rib for breakfast. That was all I needed before I left. I’m not sure what I’ll do tomorrow. We shall see.🥰

Hello Sunday
First, I want to start by saying I love you. You deserve to hear it first, not last. Times are stranger than ever, BUT GOD. Resist the urge to panic. Panicking only causes destruction and further devastation. Remain calm but prepare for the worst while also planning for the best. I know it’s easier said than done, but it can be done.
At this moment, many of my fellow veterans are experiencing PTSD. We’ve been here before. Last night, I was explaining to my daughter everything I would have been doing at this moment as it related to her. Being stationed in Turkey was scary at times. While everyone was living it up stateside, without a care in the world, we were being careful about our every move on and off base. Anything could happen at any time. We knew this. We lived it daily.
When I first arrived in Turkey, within 30 days, I had to have an emergency evacuation plan for my daughter in case there was a possible attack. I was a 24-year-old single mom in a new country where I knew no one but my three year old. Within the first week, I had made friends with someone I trusted enough to accompany my baby girl back home to my mom or sister. I didn’t know her or her husband, but I had to trust God enough to trust them with my child. I was on edge with every threat of an attack. However, I did not live in constant fear of what could or may not have happened. Instead, I did what most military families are doing right now and that’s banding closer together. It was my military family who made stressful situations, calm.
Right now, I’m praying for our troops (all branches). God, please give them peace and calm their hearts. Let them know that You are with them. For all others, including us veterans, please do the same—calm our fears and give us a sense of peace.
That’s all I have for now. I’m about to get dressed and go love on my baby girl a little more before I head home. I’ve had a wonderful time with her. I feel so refreshed!
TWO MORE DAYS!!🎉 And yes, I’m still excited about my upcoming birthday. God’s got me. He’s got us!♥️
I love you,
Shaun
Life IS Beautiful
I shared the following four years ago in an Instagram story—“Life is beautiful. Cherishing every moment.”
Life is beautiful. I pray that you’re cherishing your time here.♥️
