My Sweet Mother!

Mum arrived a couple of weeks ago from Nigeria. She is so awesome. There is nothing like having your parents around as you raise kids. Dad will be arriving soon. It really takes more than 2 parents to raise healthy kids and maintain your sanity in this hectic society. You need your extended family, actually you really need a whole village   Posted by Picasa

Race for the Cure 2006

We had great running weather today. It was a little overcast and drizzly but cool. Here I am getting ready to head to the Mall for the race. This is the second year I have participated in this Race and it is a really wonderful experience
 

After the race Brenda and I scooped up lots of goodies - Yogurts, smoothies, fruit bars, bananas and so many other good things. The thing I most look forward to at the end of the race are the scarves contributed by the Ford company. They are very pretty.
 

There were lots of sisters at the race sporting their natural do's. I wish I could have taken more pictures. Aren't they beautiful? They didn't have to worry about the drizzle and moisture in the air.

Retightened and Styled

The soft spike curlers really work well for me. The curls add fullness to my locks and they last about a week.

An attempt at freestyling and not feeling it at all

I don't think freestyling is the right look for me at this phase of my SL journey. I need more length. I just washed my hair in this shot. I will be using the soft spike rollers to get a more polished look.
