After The Kids Are Asleep

I Wish I Was One Of Those Cute Pregnant Girls Who Wear Skinny Jeans Throughout Their Pregnancies. But I Just Gain Weight.

My Mom Was Really Vigorous About Making Sure That We Saw Things And That We Questioned Things. Education Was So Important To Both Of My Parents.

You Stick To The Script, The Script Is Bible.

I Rebelled By Not Getting Straight A's And Not Following The Path That My Elder Sister Did. She Was Valedictorian And Is Very Exemplary In Her Way. I Look A Lot Like Her, So I Just Had To Do The Opposite. Not That I Got Bad Grades, But I Was All About Performance And Just Finding Any Way That I Could To Be Involved In Any Kind Of Production.

I Am Lucky To Have Had An Attentive, Curious And Loving Dad And Heart-smart, Down To Earth, Gifted Mother. They Changed The Outlooks Of Their Own Lives And Have Never Forgotten The People And Organizations That Helped Them Dream Bigger Than Their Circumstances Should Have Allowed.
