This blog is a special birthday blog going out a special lady of whom I am proud to call friend and sometimes, Momma. I may make her sigh sometimes with an occasional swear word or questionable post on Facebook but, most of the time, I impress her with how well I slay my outfits. Paula and I go back to 2008, when we met at Greensburg Alliance Church. I always visited on Monday nights, mainly to see her and her daughters. We have gone through long periods of not seeing each other but, our friendship has never suffered. Here are a few things I can speak kindly of when it comes to my friend and adopted Momma, Paula.
I got an invite to her daughter’s wedding in the Spring of 2021. I was one of the first to RSVP. When I told her about the invite she reminded me, “You’re family, of course you’ll be there!” It was one of the greatest events I got to attend and one of the few good takeaways from 2021.
She loves unconditionally which I’m grateful for. I have my own distinct style (I’m non binary) and love designer bags and accessories. When a friend of hers shot me down for how I dressed, she responded back that she loved and supported me and that I matter.
She has a strong faith in Jesus Christ which has gotten her through some tough times. Of course, I’ve also helped her and her daughters through some hard times as well. I am a believer even though my church attendance has been on hiatus since the Fall of 2021.
Her girls are my besties and I am the same to them. I learned the word slay from her fashionable daughter and how to create shitposts (sorry for the language, Momma) from her fabulous daughter.
Happy anniversary of your 29th birthday, Paula!
