Family support is necessary

April 28, 2016 | 1 Comment

Supporting your loved ones is so important in my opinion. Whether you’re fighting the biggest fight of your life, or chasing your dreams that may sometimes feel so farfetched, having your support system there to push you through and keep you grounded is so necessary.

I am the person I am today because of my support system. My support system has helped with advice, with guidance, with encouragement, inspiration, and so much more.

I’m just so happy to be able to return the good deed, to one of my biggest supporters/inspirations ever; my brother. He is one of the most hard working and dedicated people I know. I think i’ve said this many times here on this blog, but it’s so true. He definitely has a story to tell and I hope you all get to hear it one day.

It was amazing being able to see him play soccer the other day with the entire family. It has been a LONG time since I’ve last seen him play (I know so bad), but I’m making a conscious effort to support more.

Sunday was a good game Nana, you definitely showed up and showed out, keep up the great work!

Be sure to follow his soccer Journey and follow him on Instagram.

Alani was having a ball on the field during half time, kicking the ball to daddy, and into the goal, and screaming goalll after. I think she has a natural love for the sport; not by force.

Our parents came out too. It’s so hilarious watching my mother be the commentator for the game, she thinks she knows all the missed calls, all the bad calls, whose supposed to be defending who etc lol.

Our Visit to the American Museum of Natural history

April 26, 2016 | Leave a Comment

DSC_0866

So if you’ve been reading my blog for sometime now, you probably know that my family and I are on a museum journey, visiting as many museums as we can in our city.

Well yesterday my nephews, baby girl and I visited the American Museum of Natural History. My eldest nephew has been bugging me to take them for the longest.

My favorite exhibit was the “Akeley Hall of African Mammal” I love how all the animals looked so real in their habitat, It really made me want to visit a Safari, preferably an African Safari (It sounds good, truth id; i’d probably be too scared).

Anywho, if you’re intrigued by human cultures, the natural world, and the universe, this is definitely the place for you.

Here are some pictures from our visit [Read more…]

Lovedemitra’s 1st mommy group meet up

From left to right: Widza & her daugher, Jhoven & daughter, Alani and I, Naomi & her daughter, Tunisia & her son, and at the top Deijha and her God daughter.

So, Lovedemitra had its 1st mommy group meet up, and it turned out great.

First I want to thank all of you wonderful mommies for supporting my mommy group, and for bringing the kiddies out to enjoy a day of fun.

Yesterday, We spent the evening at the Grand Army Plaza Library, for an Ezra Jack Keets story time, and arts and crafts after ( it was really nice). We all were also given a free Ezra Jack Keets book, now thats always a plus.

After story time and art and crafts were over we immediately all began to talk and bond as if we all have known each other forever, (most of the ladies met for the first time yesterday) we stayed like an extra 30 minutes after arts and crafts was done just talking, we would’ve stayed in that room for hours had they let us.

Instead, we decided to get some food from the cafe inside the library. My friend Naomi was the one who suggested us stopping there, and kept telling her sister and I how good the food is. When I tell you that grilled cheese sandwich I had was amazing, it was AMAZING, one of the best i’ve ever had, no exaggeration. So if you’re there check them out, they’re a little pricey, but the food was good, and there were no complaints from the mommies or babies.

All the ladies and I sat outside for what must have been another two hours, talking, giving advice, and sharing first time mommy stories. All the kids were playing so nicely together it was nice to see. Alani is usually around adults most of the time so seeing her interact with other children is beautiful, there were lots of ring around the rosies, peek a boos, and running amongst the kids. They all made me feel like this mommy group is going to be great.

Thanks again ladies, until next time.

PS: If you missed this meet up you can join us for the next one, which is scheduled next month. Don’t forget to subscribe to my blog, I will be sending out a blast to all my subscribers by 4:30 pm today.

I usually don’t get to spend much quality time with my best friend, because distance and time doesn’t permit, but when it does we make the best of it.

Food and a great time at the parks calls for lots of fun. By the way i’m LOVING the consistency of great weather these days here in NYC, because it was starting to feel like we were getting all four seasons in one month. Thanks you weather Gods!!!!

Thanks for visiting Ari!!!

Lovedemitra’s Mommy & Me Group

April 14, 2016 | Leave a Comment

Lovedemitra.com (2)

So, recently I came up with an idea to start a mommy group. Basically gathering a group of mommies to participate in mommy and me activities together, also visiting children friendly places together.

I often times get comments from my friends and family who are also parents, saying that i’m a “cool mom” or that I’m always taking Alani to all these nice places. I want every mom to do “cool” things with their children, and take them to these nice places too, so why not do it together?

I really just want our children to be exposed to culture, education, and of course fun, and we don’t have to wait till our children go on school trips, for them to have these experiences.

I am currently putting things together for this mommy group; finding places that I think our children will enjoy. If your a mom, or even a baby sitter, you’re welcome to join this journey.

If you want to be a part of this journey, just subscribe to this blog ( you can find the subscription bar on the right hand of this page if you’re on a computer, and at the bottom of the page, right  below the ‘About me’ section if you’re on your mobile device.

By subscribing to my blog, I will send you exclusive emails on the place and time of our Mommy & Me group activities.

I will send all of you your first invite on Friday, April 15, 2016.

Don’t forget to subscribe. Hope to see all of my “cool moms” soon
