The gathering was held two days prior to my 46th birthday and I couldn't have given myself a better gift - sharing with other beautiful locked sisters of like minds and spirits. It was BEA-U-TI-FUL!

DA Ladies!

My Gurls - TRA, BlaqKofi, Lachanda

We Could Be Sisters! Ooops! We Are - Sisterlocked Sisters!

 

LaChanda & My Baby Sister, Teresa

This is my sister Teresa along with LaChanda. Thanks, T for coming to help me out!

Teresa shared with me that she agreed to come and help me out because I'm her big sis, but secretly thought, she was coming to hang out with some of my "stuffy friends." She was so impressed with the positive spirit of the group and the "cool people." She told me later, "now that's what I'm talkin' 'bout. I can hang with them!"

My Lil Sis Teresa, Jen & Beverly

My sister, Teresa (T), Jen and Beverly. T's a character as you can tell from this pic. She and Jen hit it off - mad love, Jen - and Beverly, obviously found her amusing.

T is the exact opposite of me. She has never met a stranger and is always the life of the party. I just love her!

Rhythm & Rhyme

Jen and my son, Kory vibin' the strings and keys; Maryee reciting her original piece "In the Mirror"; Gigi, sharing her positive spirit; Ms. Tiffany aka TRA sharing from Dr. Cornwell's All About Love"


BlaqKofi reciting "Then Address Me As Such", Author unknown

Narissa, LaChanda's niece straight outta New Orleans, laid down her original words, straight from the dome! You know you my gurl! I can't wait until you cross over

And none of this was programmed yall, it was just a beautiful free-flowing exchange of positive spirit, music, words and talents.

A special thanks to my son, Kory, for hanging with the women for a bit, just for his "momz." You know I'm proud of ya K'deezy (smile).

Me and My Son, Kory
