Here I am again, outside my comfort zone, but we need to keep the conversation going. And, if you read my post ” I don’t usually do this, but…” you’ll know that being controversial is definitely outside my comfort zone. I always left that to my mother. But, I recently discovered the DNA Discussion Project started by […]
When you read and learn about the wisdom of Eartha Kitt, you can see why my mother was, and still is, my inspiration. At any age. Age isn’t something we really think about until we start to do it. When we’re little, we yearn to be ‘grown up’, and then, when we get there, […]
Sharing my mother’s heart. Be Kind. Be Grateful. Smile. I receive many messages on social media thanking me for sharing my mother’s wisdom and beauty and carrying on her legacy. I know I was truly blessed to have had this amazing woman as my mother, and I believe that blessings are meant to be shared. When you […]

My mother was my biggest supporter and maybe because I was an extension of her name, she thought I too had the ability to be a creative. One of the many hobbies I have delved into over the years has been photography, and my mother always praised my ‘eye’ and enjoyed having my images framed […]
Behind every strong woman is a strong role model. For me, that was my mother. My mother was definitely a woman who shook things up. And, not necessarily because she was fearless. In fact, I think it was often fear that motivated her. What continues to amaze me even at the age of fifty-six and […]
Our mother daughter style was quite different. Aside from the difference in our height (she was five feet two inches and I am five feet seven inches), skin and hair coloring ( check out my post Why Don’t You Look More Like Your Mother?, for more on that), my mother, Eartha Kitt, was attracted to […]
