'I solemnly swear that I am up to no good.' ✨⠀

'I solemnly swear that I am up to no good.' ✨⠀ ⠀ Well, that's me 99.9% of the time. 😄 ⠀ ⠀ But, when there's cookies involved, you know I am having one. ⠀ ⠀ We celebrated Harry Potter's birthday this weekend with butterbeer macarons, chocolate frogs, and for good measure (and totally not related,) macadamia cookies from @kings.bakeshop too. ⠀ ⠀ I never knew Harry was older than me but, there it is. July 31st, 1980. Happee Birthdae Harry!⠀ ⠀ Made me miss Diagon Alley, sipping on butterbeer, and casting spells with my kid's wand. ⠀ ⠀ Any other Harry Potter fans out there? What house do you belong to? Mine is Gryffindor. 🦁❤💛

'But first, proffee.' ☕⠀ ⠀ I often share it

'But first, proffee.' ☕⠀ ⠀ I often share it in my stories and have been asked, '𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘩𝘦𝘤𝘬 𝘪𝘴 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘧𝘧𝘦𝘦?' Well, it's the one thing that is a complete constant in my life and that I have every single morning without fail—even when I cruise or travel. I pack it. It's iced coffee or espresso with protein.⠀ ⠀ 𝓟𝓻𝓸𝓯𝓯𝓮𝓮.⠀ ⠀ To express my undying love for it, I got this decal custom-designed (thanks @pritprits.designs), it's Canadian-made, and I LOVE IT. Got here super quick too, and the packaging was adorbs. BTDUBS, this is not sponsored, I just wanted to share the love. ⠀ ⠀ Well, today especially, it was AH-MAZING at first sip. I'm usually up before everyone and had a bit of a late start. Trying to battle the neverending to-do list and everything that needs doing. ⠀ ⠀ It always seems like there isn't enough time in the day. Even on the weekends and throw in some rain, well... I'll just be sipping my proffee for now.⠀ ⠀ How do you start your days every day?

'Finding paradise wherever I go.' 🌊⠀ ⠀ Even

'Finding paradise wherever I go.' 🌊⠀ ⠀ Even with the world starting to move forward, we are still sticking close to home. Last week, we took a day trip and it was glorious. ⠀ ⠀ We packed up the Jeep, made all our meals, and we came and went without disruption (check out my stories to see some highlights) and without seeing many people. ⠀ ⠀ It was nice to be outdoors, to breathe in the air, and to see a different place after all this time. Even if all plans have changed, I needed it. ⠀ ⠀ Have you traveled anywhere lately? ✈

'Born and raised in South Detroit.'⠀⠀ ⠀ ⚡D

'Born and raised in South Detroit.'⠀⠀ ⠀ ⚡DOUBLE TAP if you sing that line loud every time you hear it⚡⠀ ⠀ I know I do! Our proximity to Detroit kinda makes it home, at least to me. We have so many great memories in the D. ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ Actually, since I can remember, we've celebrated so many special moments there.⠀ ⠀ So, when I saw this keychain, I just had to have it. It is a reminder of the good times of yesterday, good times to come, and a little piece of home.⠀⠀ ⠀ Even if I wasn't born there, I sure grew up there. It holds a special place in my heart and I always belt out that line when I hear it. ⠀ ⠀ Do you have any lyrics that remind you of home or a special place in your heart?

Did you hear the good news? It's Friday.✨⠀ ⠀

Did you hear the good news? It's Friday.✨⠀ ⠀ It's been a long week but, it's been a great one. I've been working in my office and I made it a point to have a comfy chair in here so I can have visitors to keep me company.⠀ ⠀ Even if they're on a device, they listen to my old music (sometimes sing along until I catch them) and just sit here while I work. ⠀ ⠀ I don't know, I love it.⠀ ⠀ Our weekend will consist of sprinklers, backyard BBQ'ing, and just enjoying this weather. ⠀ ⠀ How are you spending the weekend? 💁🏽‍♀️✨

Fri-nally... DOUBLE TAP if you're happy the school

Fri-nally... DOUBLE TAP if you're happy the school year is done! 🙋🏽‍♀️⠀ ⠀ This has been one of the strangest and somewhat stressful school years we've had. We're thankful that it was safe and for teachers who did their best to teach our kids.⠀ ⠀ It's officially summer and I have a feeling these kids will have more of a summer like the ones we had growing up. Which isn't a bad thing!⠀ ⠀ Here's to warmer, longer days, and making most of the summer!⠀ ⠀ Is it officially summer for you? ☀️

Dad. Husband. Legend. 🙌🏽 ⠀ ⠀ ⚡DOUBLE T

Dad. Husband. Legend. 🙌🏽 ⠀ ⠀ ⚡DOUBLE TAP if you are or have an AMAZING one in YOUR LIFE⚡⠀ ⠀ I want to wish my best friend a Happy's Father's Day. He's an early riser, so I lost points for waking up after him. I gave him a fresh cut and made him a big breakfast of eggs, bacon, sausages, and pancakes to make up for it.⠀ ⠀ I want to celebrate him today and every single day because he is the best partner and husband I could have ever asked for. A father who is always there for his girls, and we appreciate everything he does. My busy bee, you're the bee's knees! We hope you loved your gifts.⠀ ⠀ I wouldn't be who I am if not for my parents and for my Dad (@francisco_and_milagro) who has been the most amazing father to my siblings and I. Gracias papi, por siempre estar apoyándonos y amándonos completamente. ⠀ ⠀ Love you both so much. 💙⠀ ⠀ Happy Father's Day to all the incredible dads out there!⠀ ⠀ How are you celebrating today?

⚡DOUBLE TAP if you're ready for SUMMER?⚡⠀ ⠀ My girls have been so great these last months. Patient. Understanding. Content.⠀ ⠀ We are getting closer to the end of the school year and I am so proud of Gabby for rocking this semester despite the circumstances. Mimi had a rough start but, her teacher has helped her find a way to learn and succeed at home.⠀ ⠀ It's been a blessing.⠀ ⠀ They are looking forward to the summer and truthfully, so am I. ⠀ ⠀ We still don't know what summer will bring. If we will venture out, how far we will go or if we do at all.⠀ ⠀ For those that have had quarantine lifted, how has the transition been for you?⠀ ⠀ Will you be or have you been traveling?

She makes me smile. Every. Single. Day.⠀ ⠀ ⚡

She makes me smile. Every. Single. Day.⠀ ⠀ ⚡DOUBLE TAP if you have someone who makes you SMILE⚡⠀ ⠀ When your teen lets you take pictures you take pictures. I took about 280 in case you're wondering.⠀ ⠀ Over the years, the opportunities have become a bit more scarce but she's my baby so she lets me and I treasure every single one.⠀ ⠀ Quarantine has been great because of the girls and their company. I look forward to when Gabby comes to office or room everyday and shows me random TikToks or when we laugh til we cry over memes. ⠀ ⠀ I appreciate our inside jokes, the scary movies we watch, or when we just randomly dance in the kitchen.⠀ ⠀ Even though I know the space between those moments will get wider, I'm proud of the beautiful, strong, intelligent, free-thinking, and kind, young woman she has become.⠀ ⠀ What or who has made you smile lately?

Be colour conscious. ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏾✊🏼✊🏻⠀ ⠀ One of the things that Darasak and I have always taught our girls is to not be colour blind. To be conscious of races, to see the differences, and to know that we aren't all the same. ⠀ ⠀ There is beauty and danger in both.⠀ ⠀ We were all made different. All different colours and shades, shapes, and features. All beautiful and perfectly made how we were meant to be. ⠀ ⠀ But, the danger? ⠀ ⠀ Well, it is the fact that people get treated differently because of the colour of their skin.⠀ ⠀ It's okay to teach kids this so that they don't dismiss the experiences of those who are black or a minority or what they deal with on a daily basis. This can happen if it is taught that we are all the same. ⠀ ⠀ We are not.⠀ ⠀ My girls are mixed race and they've always been conscious of who they are. Either we've talked about it or it's been pointed out to them. They know that being mixed race and often being treated differently, they still have more privilege than black people.⠀ ⠀ But, knowing we are all different and learning to appreciate those differences and what they go through can help teach empathy. ⠀ ⠀ Even within our Latino community, there is much work to be done to be better allies to our black and afro-latino brothers and sisters.⠀ ⠀ This past week was a time of reflection and we are moving forward and continuing to have conversations and using our voices.⠀ ⠀ Have you ever thought of what it means to be colour blind?⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #speakup #endinjustice #endracism #checkyourprivilege #whispersinspire #liveauthentic #liveintentional #yourlifeunscripted #stopkillingblackpeople #nojusticenopeace #ygq #detroitmi #quarantinedwithkids #mommotivation #thesearethedays #windsoron⠀⠀⠀ #happymomsnaps #covidparenting #quarantinemom #momentsofmine #acupofmotherhood #creativehappylife #creativityfound #inspiremyinstagram #supportmamatribe #liveauthentic #liveintentional #livefullyalive #withintheordinary #yourlifeunscripted
