Life lately: the past week has been full. The beautiful, busy, bittersweet kind of full.
Niecey-pooh went off to college at Clark Atlanta. 💅🏾🎓
Baby boy’s school was closed for two weeks, so he spent some of those days at work with Mama. 🥹
I experienced Pure Poetry Live with a new sister-friend, where poetry became prayer and we worshipped our way through a sister’s testimony.
We welcomed the incoming freshmen and their families, and gathered for our first Chapel service of the school year. 🙏🏾
And somewhere in the middle of all of that, I finished Mara Brock Akil’s first novel. Whew. So. Good.
A week of goodbyes and beginnings.
Of work and wonder.
Of little people growing up and little people growing alongside me.
Of sisterhood, storytelling, worship, and words.
Life has been lifing, and lately, I’m grateful for all of it. 🤎
