For the Love of Skyy J.

Day 291: Skyy came home from spending the weekend with her aunt & uncle only to be filled with congestion. She was up most of the night as she was having difficulty breathing and couldn't stop coughing. Of course, she needed to stay home with Mimi so I could get her all better.

Surprisingly, I was able to work and write with her home today. All she wanted to do was watch Sesame Street, Barney and Yo Gabba Gabba and eat Popsicles. She's been getting major loving on today and I really feel bad for her and the teacher if she feels better to go back to school on tomorrow. She got lavished with love and hugs today.I really love this little girl and I can't wait to see what God will do through her. Everyday I tell her how briliant and smart she is...those word so go along with her fierce attitude.

Yet, in the mist of loving on her I found myself somewhere about to have a pity party for myself. I had leftover feelings that my paper I had turned in at 11:42 pm last night wasn't the A I wanted to make. In fact, I could not lose the feeling that I had missed critical opportunity to make that paper perfect depending on someone else to proof it for me. Of course, in hopes they would give some relevant input to help make it better.

It was a good lesson for me as I almost missed the posting time because I wanted validation from someone I felt was smarter than me. I'm so glad it happened because I need to believe in myself and do it my way and know that it will be good enough.

A friend asked me today where the Rita was who was bold and walked in authority that she had first met. She said, " I need you to find that Rita, because that's the one I want to work for." I could only tell her I do too.

Working on it.
