GIVING THE GIFT OF STEAM ACTIVITIES THIS HOLIDAY S GIVING THE GIFT OF STEAM ACTIVITIES THIS HOLIDAY SEASON... I’m thankful to @goldiebox for introducing Chloé to STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and math) early on. I want her to be exposed to as much as possible and GoldieBox is empowering young girls by nurturing these skills early on to help build our next generation of future leaders. They also make it fun and engaging which captures Chloé’s interest. Mama made her light up unicorn pillow and shared it with her little sister. What a great gift for all young girls! #goldiebox #artsandcrafts #momlife #diy #astoriainheels #girlmom #momblogger #nycblogger #melanin #toddlerlife #workingmom #momsofinstagram #womenofcolor #indocaribbean #stem #honestlymothering #wfhlife #myhonestmotherhood #multicuturalfamily #nycmom #mentalhealth #beautifulmixedkids #curlyhairkids #workingfromhome #inspiremotherhood #miami #biracial #realparenting
COLORING FUN CREATED BY THE TALENTED CARIBBEAN ART COLORING FUN CREATED BY THE TALENTED CARIBBEAN ARTIST @laurabeeart_xo My girls love to color and paint and I am thankful to @laurabeeart_xo for these amazing activity books that showcase the Caribbean from A-Z.

HOW I TURNED LEMONS INTO LEMONADE FOR MY MENTAL HE HOW I TURNED LEMONS INTO LEMONADE FOR MY MENTAL HEALTH... I came down to Florida for help with the girls and because Ricardo and I have been working on something down here for some time. With the help though came anxiety and lack of sleep from too much negativity. On top of traveling with two little kids, working remotely, working on something for our family’s future, and this pandemic, you can say I’ve been a little stressed! The stress didn’t go away, just came from different sources and it wasn’t good for me. To keep everyone safe, I didn’t leave the house either and that didn’t help, pandemic fatigue is real! I made the decision to put my sanity first...safely of course. Still down south but now, we’ve turned it into a beach vacation. I began to instantly feel better in a new environment. Still have to work but thankful for remote capabilities! We are being careful and staying somewhere that is taking precautions. The girls enjoyed the beach and the pool! Chloé loves playing in the sand and CiCi was ready to run right into the water! Got to keep my eye on that one. Think we may not be able to get them to leave! What matters is that I am in a better state of mind and that is better for me, my marriage and my children. #astoriainheels #girlmom #momblogger #nycblogger #melanin #toddlerlife #workingmom #momsofinstagram #womenofcolor #indocaribbean #momlife #motherhoodunplugged #honestlymothering #wfhlife #myhonestmotherhood #multicuturalfamily #nycmom #mentalhealth #beautifulmixedkids #curlyhairkids #workingfromhome #inspiremotherhood #childhood #tinygirlgang #lemontolemonade #realparenting #mentalwellbeing #ltkfall #liketkit #ltkunder50
