    💫 💫 as the weekend approaches I’m remindin 💫 💫 as the weekend approaches I’m reminding myself that it’s okay to not DO. a continual practice for me this year is not to be fearful of doing nothing. I’ve found that my apprehension to relaxing is rooted in the fear that if I’m idle, I won’t succeed. that lie continues to perpetuate perfectionism and ultimately just puts my anxiety on high. ⠀ basically homies, we gotta chill. find a way to make strides in our lives without feeling like taking rest will put us two steps behind. society has pushed us into feeling like we have to always be on. these little squares making us think everyone is constantly moving and shaking. truth is, we aren’t always. and that’s 🆗. ⠀ this weekend put your feet up, kick it - hard. do a whole lot of nothing. I promise you Monday will show up again ready for you. instead of dreading its arrival, use these two days to fill back up. that way you can pour from a full cup when the week starts again. ⠀ ⠀ ➿ #TheHautemommie #MorningTHautes #FriYAY 💫

Head to the link in my bio - and tell a friend #HautemommiePutMeOn 😉 ⠀ ➿ #TheHautemommie #readingisfun #onthblog 💫
    💫 when I picked up my eldest daughter from scho 💫 when I picked up my eldest daughter from school today, I noticed two girls touching her hair. instantly I was triggered. my own experiences and traumas of being an anomaly came flooding back to my mind. the incessant questions I endured, constant uncomfortable petting by people who were friends. never feeling okay with it, but you know not wanting seem - aggressive if I said so. ⠀ it pains me that I have to prepare them for moments like this. that I must equip my babies with the tools to handle the fawning, even when the intent isn’t malicious. it’s enraging that their Blackness will confound some, so much that they have to touch to believe the magic they’re a witness to. ⠀ but I promise that my girls will wear their Blackness with pride. they will teach the voyeurs that they are welcome to enjoy the view, but please don’t touch the models. as a Black mother these lessons are the kind that plague us. make us weary and at times angry. yet we keep pressing on. ⠀ to my mamas who know this plight first hand, stay vigilant. to those that don’t, teach your little ones. teach them to see color, teach them to love difference because it is what makes us unique and special. pour into them that their Black friends are just as human, just as important, and just as worthy of respect as they are. do this because the village that it takes to raise our children also includes the villages we aren’t a part of. ⠀ the thing about magic is it’s unbelievable, we understand. but there’s no smoke and mirrors here. no hocus pocus or Shazam. just living breathing things that exist with you. and the sooner that’s understood, the better off we’ll be. ⠀ ➿ #TheHautemommie #TheHauteMinies #motherhoodunplugged 💫
