Stay-At-Home Sista!

My name is Mu'minah. And I'm in a sorta unique but not that unique situation--I'm a stay at home sister....hehe....you heard right--sister, not, mom =) I have 6 siblings total but only 4 that live with me, and three of those four are full blown, 100% members of the male species. And with that comes...A LOT to say the least.

I graduated from FIT in NYC 2 years ago and instead of going into the corporate world (partly because I'm not the "corporate" type, partly because I couldn't decide what would make me excited to go to work everyday) I figure I'd be much happier and more content if I help my family gain the success and financial freedom we see in our future. My little brother, 2 at the time, was too young to go to school, yet my mom needed to re-enter the workforce and bam! I was the perfect candidate for the Nanny job (minus the nanny money I might add--but ket's not digress). I could mind the kids and help grow the budding family businesses, perfect setup right?

Well me and the kiddos have experienced a lot over these two years, I've grown, they've grown, we've fussed, have downright fought, laughed, learned and all the flavors in between. And raising these bright--knuckleheads is part of what I do, So i figure why not share? I can turn the very thing that causes the most stress at times into a fun and light-hearted release. And can celebrate those moments when I'm truly proud. They've taught me a lot about life, motherhood & parenting (when it's time) and have provided mucho entertainment. With this blog I intend to provide y'all with the experiences, lessons, entertainment and everyday happenings as we continue this sometimes trying, but ultimately rewarding journey.

Peace and thanks for tuning in =0
