Phenomena Woman, That is CJ to Be!

As today begins Women's History Month I would like to share this piece with my Princess CJ. I pray everyday that you become a standout woman. One that fears the Lord, is confident in who you are, and a woman that is intellectual, athletic, fun, and determined.Your Daddy will always be here to support you, your hype man in your corner. I will always pray for you daily and together. Prayer not only changes things, people, and situations but prayer is essential in your life. Daddy loves you, enjoy!

Phenomenal Woman

Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
I say,
It's in the reach of my arms
The span of my hips,
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please,
And to a man,
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees.
Then they swarm around me,
A hive of honey bees.
I say,
It's the fire in my eyes,
And the flash of my teeth,
The swing in my waist,
And the joy in my feet.
I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me.
They try so much
But they can't touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them
They say they still can't see.
I say,
It's in the arch of my back,
The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style.
I'm a woman

Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

Now you understand
Just why my head's not bowed.
I don't shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud.
When you see me passing
It ought to make you proud.
I say,
It's in the click of my heels,
The bend of my hair,
the palm of my hand,
The need of my care,
'Cause I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

NOTE TO CJ: Soar to heights unimaginable!

CJ and Daddy Walking

This morning Daddy had his hands full. So when it was time to go to the car Daddy who usually carries CJ put her down to walk. Daddy held her had as she tried to keep pace with him. Mommy I guess saw us from behind and said we looked cute together. I do not know what it is but the simple things CJ and I do together bring me the most joy. I mean walking to the car takes no talent, Daddy is not particularly awake at that moment and, it is cold. However when CJ stops to try and pick up everything on the ground, when she constantly looks back to take inventory of her surroundings, and when she begins to utter words to keep her entertained a smile comes upon Daddy's face. I mentioned to Mommy yesterday that no matter how much I have to chase CJ and no matter how much she gets into, breaks, or destroys I would give anything to be able to be with her all day long.

Keep praying that our relationship blossoms. Prayer changes things, people, and situations!

Everyday

This is CJ's new word. I will explain it all when the time comes. Keep praying, it changes things, people, and things.

Breakfast In Bed

CJ and Daddy woke up early as usual. Daddy prepared breakfast for us all but Mommy remained in the bed and would not eat.

We went out for a ride and CJ was pretty well behaved.

Daddy had to leave early but CJ was bathed and ready for bed befroe he left.

Will add more about today, well yesterday technically later today.

Brandon's Birthday

Daddy and CJ went out with Mommy to celebrate Brandon's birthday at this Hibachi place in Jersey city. Cj bullied her cousin and then was let loose by her Aunt. She had issues with her grandma and decided to eat everything not nailed down. More details in the morning.

Back At It

Today was a good day. CJ went back to the sitter. Daddy went back to work. CJ ate and drank today. All seems to be getting better. We did get off to a real late start but you should expect that after a two day layoff. When we came to pick CJ up from the babysitter she ran to the door and greeted MOmmy and Daddy with a smile. Then after standing idle for a while she dove toward daddy and hugged his legs. Now you all know that is the best feeling in the world for Daddy. He picked CJ up and proceeded to give her a kiss!

Daddy is really glad that CJ is doing better. Her being sick started to wear down on him. He would always rather her to be her loud, over the top, and inquisitive self. This is the CJ you have to chase around the house and watch her laugh as she does tries to outrun you. Tonight was Daddy bath night and we read a book out Babies. CJ actually sat still while I read to her. We then prayed and she fell asleep immediately. I am glad she is not sick anymore. She is not 100% but close and Daddy will take it. That is while he still uses the nose sucker to get the mucus out of her nose.

So keep praying for CJ's health. Prayer changes things, people, and situations. She is better all because of prayer.

NOTE TO CJ: Princess be sure to plan in advance so you are not caught by surprise. Plan in your studies and recreational life. That way you can handle the unexpected because you have considered most of them already.

On Lock

Instead of getting up and going to work for the past two days Daddy has been getting up to stay home with CJ. By 11:00am yesterday I was ready to go to work. CJ's had a very bad cold and it really was getting the best of her. The one thing small children can not do is communicate how they feel the way adults ay want them too. CJ would not eat, she would not drink, her nose kept running, and for some reason her diaper still needed to be changed. I respect all babysitter's because I was not made for this.

Daddy just prays she gets better. We all know that being locked up in the house for two days straight was not his cup of tea. Daddy is a busy body and wall make him feel boxed in. So when you pray tonight CJ's health should be at the tip of your list. Daddy believes that prayer changes things, people, and situations.
