What’s bothering me most about this Grays Ferry incident is that no matter what social media platform I open— I am forced to see this ring camera footage play… and people quite literally ducking on a porch for their lives… Like WHEN will enough be enough? Prayers to everyone.

Day 1 complete at the Homicide Research Working Group Annual Meeting in Clearwater Beach, Florida! Oh how I love sunny Florida & blue water — but hate this wicked boot.

Today my little sister graduated from medical school. If you know our life over the last 6 months, you know how special this picture is! Pictured: Dad, me (PhD loading), sister (DO), mom (JD/Your Honor). Proof that God is so good and so faithful🤎.

The drama has already started at the Presidential Joint Address to Congress. Someone holds a “This is not normal sign,” and another person rips it from them and throws it in the air. 🫣

Got a combo Roomba vacuum today. I must say, I am equally as excited as my 5 and 2 year old! They named “him” Noah. Iykyk the struggle of keeping floors clean as an active busy family with toddlers. #chaotic

My first few weeks of this PhD program, you couldn’t have paid me ANY amount of 💰 to believe that one day I’d enjoy coding… Here we are a year and a half later looking FORWARD to opening R each day to master error codes that decide to pop up for the day! 😂 Who am I ?! 😅

My 5 year old was pissed that her art “show” “wasn’t a show” 😂. She said “this isn’t a show”. I said “it IS an art show—they are showing your art work”… she said… “That doesn’t even make any sense…..” & wanted to go home! 😂😂😂😂 Life is so chaotic/funny over here.

The way @temsbaby gets me through the day on a daily basis while the kids are at school as I clean and do work. … Something so special about being still in the chaos ✨🤎

The best gift this holiday and birthday season was having my dad home with us. ♥️🤎. Thank you for all the prayers and support. He’s still VERY sick, but home with family & has a great medical team 🫶🏽. Very blessed.
