Happy birthday to me!

I turned 38 last week and I spent the weekend celebrating with the people I love. It’s my first time celebrating since COVID + becoming somebody’s mama. Needless to say, it was time to celebrate me!!!!!

There are a lot of things they prepare you for when having a kid, the lack of sleep, breastfeeding, defiant toddlers, a non-existent social life, etc. But one thing I don’t think we talk about enough is how everything about WHO you are changes.

In the midst of changing your priorities to take care of another human, moms go through a period of not even knowing who tf we are anymore. For the past 2 years I’ve been trying to figure out simple things like what kind of clothes I like now, purses, perfume, hair styles, shoes? Who is mama DeeDee when Cairo isn’t around? What does she like to do? Who does she want to do it with? 🤔

I’ve also had Saturn in my 1st house the past 3 years rebranding me into a badder bitch inside and out 😂 but I know I can’t be the only one that goes through this. Lol

It’s definitely been a journey, but I’ve never been one to back down from a challenge or hard work. I have Saturn on my side and he’s gonna make sure I get it right even if he takes the Joe Jackson approach. 😩😂

This whole experience has helped me to cultivate a new life that is full of love, patience and compassion. You know… the good stuff! ✨🤍

Safe relationships with emotionally mature people + a happy kid have been my rewards. ❤️

I love it here and it’s only going to get better! 😆

Cheers to 38 🥂 and many more!

Shout out to @itsjaebaebayy for the pics! Thank you so much for capturing these moments! 🫶🏾

I’m so grateful to have a friend that has grown with me through the various versions of me.
Friendships like this are rare. And not everyone is fortunate enough to have a friend like you. Thank you for all of your support during my transition into motherhood. I feel like it’s only made us closer. #boymoms cheers to 40 years and cheers to 40 more! I love you deep! #happybirthday

Since mars just went into Aries yesterday, it’s giving ‘fuck you’ to everything that has tried to break me. 🖕🏾🖕🏾😂

For my 37th trip around the sun, I’m looking forward to being more childish than ever. Loving harder than I’ve let myself in a long time. Growing my investments. Saying yes to adventures. Pampering my mf self. And anything else that makes my soul happy! ♥️

Happy 50th birthday to one of me and Cairo’s favorite people. He actually didn’t wanna talk to me the other day til he heard her in the background 🙄

Thank you for everything you’ve taught me about life and cheers to 50 more celebrations of life!

It’s crazy to think 10years have passed. I associate Scoob’s death with the beginning of my spiritual journey. It was the straw that broke the camels back at the time. It shattered me into a million pieces and the journey to putting myself back together has been the greatest gift a friend could ever give.

I’ve used what I learned from this season in my life over and over again, overcoming shit that should have taken me out. I am grateful I got to experience Curtis in this lifetime because his life changed mine and I can only hope I’ll have the same impact on the people I love when my time comes. I love you #ForeverScoob #Petty4L

Virgo season always makes me think about you. The OG Virgo of my life. I remember you used to listen to me talk about astrology and all the different spiritual shit I was experimenting with. You had no idea wtf I was talmbout. But you always listened anyway. Lol

It’s wild that you’re not here to meet Cairo. I call him Baked Bean sometimes when he reminds me of you. He has that thing on his ear like we do that we used to always complain about. Lol I love it on him though.

I was thinking about the night we had on Beale Street after this pic was taken 23 years ago. 🤦🏾‍♀️ We got away with underage drinking and a list of other WILD shit I won’t go into cause yo kids and dad follow me. 😂

Jodeci “Stay” came on the radio on my way home tonight. Now I gotta go listen to all our faves for your bday tomorrow. #Tupac #Jodeci #Aaliyah #DruHill #JaggedEdge #AdinaHoward (we had NO business listening to this 😂) #AnythingByCashMoney

Tomorrow will be a good day. ❤️

Anyway.

Thank you for everything

In life and death ❤️🖤

Happy Birthday Candice!! 🥳

That’s my baby and I’m gone stick beside him ❤️

Cancer season 2021… I noticed awhile back that

Cancer season 2021…

I noticed awhile back that I could “feel” when the energy shifts from season to season, astrologically. Every season has a theme and a lesson to go along with it. This cancer season dealt with all things MAMA for me.

I took an inner child healing meditation class with @dr.grant_ that of course brought up some trauma from my childhood. After this class I talked to my mom and she randomly brought up the same event and told me more of the story. It was a piece of information that shifted the narrative from my mom being a victim to being a bad mutha (shut yo mouf). And somehow that’s all it took to release it.

I came from that! 💪🏾

Cairo came from that! 💪🏾💪🏾

These are our ancestral roots. Hello cancer keywords.! 😆

Parents, talk to your grown kids like adults so they can release trauma and free their inner child! ❤️

The following week I had an Akashic meditation class, again with @dr.grant_ 🤗and my message was to stay grounded so I could “hear” my body. That’s gonna go over a few heads but anyway… FOLLOW Dr. Grant SHE’S THE TRUTH + my ancestors adore her!

This week I got a birth chart reading from an astrologer I look up to @thelabcoatastrologer. He’s been telling me since January that I’ve got diamonds to share and I should be writing a book. I can’t make no promises about a book, but I can start by writing about these seasons. Book him for a chart reading!!

Next up LEO season! This is one of my favesss! 😆🥳🥂🍾♌️
