On 8/18 Ari brought in his personal new year with a bang as we celebrated with his friends at the park splash pad and playground. It was so much fun and we are so grateful for the love and community.

We are so proud of our little lion and thankful he chose us to be his parents.

✨May he continue to shine brightly and touch everyone around him as he learns to nurture and cultivate his inner light.

My personal new year is inspired and held by Toni Cade Bambara’s words:

“Revolution begins with the self, in the self…It may be lonely. Certainly painful. It’ll take time. We’ve got time. That of course is an unpopular utterance these days. Instant coffee is the hallmark of current rhetoric. But we do have time. We’d better take time to fashion revolutionary selves, revolutionary lives, revolutionary relationships. Mouth don’t win the war. It don’t even win the people. Neither does haste, urgency, and stretch-out-now insistence. Not all speed is movement.”

— Toni Cade Bambara, The Black Woman (1970)

🎂On 8/17 I celebrated my birthday with loved ones, yoga, dancing, and as much joy as possible.

🦋In this solar return and season of transformation, I am feeling so much gratitude for the amazing people in my life, the deepening of my spiritual connection, and for all of the love, guidance, and support in the growth and expansion of who I am. Thank you, thank you, thank you. 🙏🏾✨
