I AM BACK

Its been a while but I have continued to write and inspire. A lot has happened since I last blogged. I just checked my last blog date: August 25, 2008. WOW! A whole lot has happened since then and as I think back, here's an update: In July 2008, I decided to start building a Mary Kay business part-time for extra income. In October of 2008, I earned my first car (a Pontiac G6 - EXCITING). December 2008 I finished qualifications to become an Independent Sales Director (the top 2% of the company - AMAZING). I graduated with my PhD in Microbiology and Molecular Genetics from Loma Linda University (LLU) in May 2009. I accepted a Postdoctoral Fellowship in the School of Medicine at LLU. I resigned the position in October 2009 and decided to go full time Mary Kay. I found out I was pregnant in that same month (Oct 2009). My husband and I met in a near death car accident that same month (October 2009). Can you tell that month was a helluva month? Anyways... God is faithful and He is good. After much physical, mental, and emotional pain that month, I found out our baby survived the accident (God is able). I was in between bed and the rehab for 3 months. I went back to Mary Kay work in January 2010. I earned my second Mary Kay car in March 2010 (a Chevy Equinox - WAHOOOOO). Our baby girl Leanna was born in May 2010. In August 2010, I decided to take my business international and opened Mary Kay Canada. In that month my brothers, hubby, and sister-in-law also hosted an amazing event for my mother's 50th birthday. I spent the next few months traveling to Canada and Atlanta building my business in those areas. In March 2011, I decided to take my business to the next level. In April 2011, our Unit had our best month since we became a Unit. In June 2011, I earned my 3rd Mary Kay car (A 2012 PINK CADILLAC SRX - SHUT UP!!!) and our T.O.P. Unit became a Cadillac Unit. In July 2011, I found out I was pregnant (super excited). From August 2011 to December 2011 I was in and out of the hospital; sick like never before - horrible 'morning' sickness (Yea right! It was ALL DAY sickness). In January 2012 I started driving and getting back to life slowly. Still sick, but much better than before. Also in January I decided to build my National Area by June 30, 2013 in time to debut on stage at our company's 50th Anniversary. In March 2012, our baby boy Lawrence was born (life has never been this beautiful). That same month I jumped back into work. That month we produced 2 new DIQs. And here we are in April 2012. I am BACK! Mentally and physically. Life is good. I am favored and loving it. Join me on this amazing journey as Christian. Wife. Mom. Future National Sales Director, Mary Kay Cosmetics. Mentee. Mentor. Inspirer. Motivator. Dreamer. BEELIEVER.
