It’s almost Spring, and according to the groundhog in my area, it should come sooner rather than later. You know if the groundhog doesn’t see its shadow then an early spring. The groundhog sees his shadow then more weeks of winter. Well not sure how accurate this is, but it’s nothing like changing the atmosphere and preparing for guests.

I have just one secret in my hosting book of secrets that will make any guest feel special. Grab some cloth napkins and add your embellishments to match your decor. Thank me later. I know how clever. No, but it’s a simple napkin craft you can do in 30mins or less.

Cloth napkins always add a special touch to any occasion. I love vibrant and colorful things, so mine match the bright colors of my dining room. That reminds me of the NEW Atmosphere Collection™ Fine Home Fragrance by Glade® that I picked up at my local Kroger store. They have subtle tones and patterns that blend right into your decor. The packaging is luxe, and the candle itself is simple and clear.

The NEW Atmosphere Collection™ is comprised of artisanal scents, crafted and layered with ingredients by world-renown fragrance designer Ann Gottlieb.  Yes, I gasped for air when I smelled all the Sweet Pea and Pear it just reminds me of the innocence of spring. The ducklings are marching behind their mother. Sometimes they wander off not knowing how much trouble they can cause.

There are no words to describe my love for my Mama There are no words to describe my love for my Mama fully. She was my biggest fan, my greatest supporter, and the one who helped me navigate life through its many ups and downs. She prayed for me, encouraged me, and always believed in me, even when I doubted myself.

I owe her my life's work and every accolade I've achieved. She saw me through undergrad, guided me as I navigated Corporate America—even though she had never experienced it herself—and kept me grounded through it all. 

She prayed with me in moments of joy and in times of need. She stood proudly by my side on my wedding day and cried with me through some of the most challenging moments of my life.

My mom saved my life in more ways than I can count. Her love and guidance shaped the person I am today, and her passing has forever changed me.

On November 26, 2024, Esther Gleaton went home to be with her ancestors. I find comfort in knowing she is finally at rest, free from pain, and in eternal peace. 

My mother bravely faced a short but aggressive battle with Plasma Cell Leukemia, spending 72 days fighting inpatient at the Northside Hospital Cancer Bone Marrow Transplant Unit. She fought with courage, grace, and incredible strength.

In sickness and health, my father, Orbie Gleaton, was by her side daily. He saw her through the very dark days and celebrated the joyful moments with her. 

His love and devotion to my mom never wavered—he never left her side. The love they shared is eternal and serves as a beautiful testament to the bond they built together.

Mama, your love will guide me forever. You are my heart, and I will carry you with me always.

Angela, Orbie, Carla, Carmelia & Amelia we will take care of Daddy. 🤍🕊️ #Multiplemyeloma #cancersucks  #plasmacellleukemia

As we proceed (God is doing a great work)
Is that this work
Did not begin with you (God is doing a great work)
Our mothers' mothers 
And fathers' fathers 
Planted seeds
When we were but the faint notion of a dream 
In their mind
They hope for a harvest a legacy, a great work
So make your next step forward
Help us to connect the dots and see
"Wherever you go in this world you will never be a "Wherever you go in this world you will never be alone. You carry with you the hopes and prayers of the ancestors. There will be days in this life when you feel alone, but know that the ancestors are with you. When you go for that job interview remember that you are carrying the ancestors with you. Everyone who has ever cared for and prayed for you goes with you when you are alone. Some of those people will never get to have your experiences or go in those boardrooms, but you carry them with you. You are the manifestation of an impossible dream - through middle passage, slavery, reconstruction, Jim Crow, segregation, civil rights - they believed that it was possible. My sister(s) you will never be alone because we all go with you."— Maya Angelou
