Check it Out!!!

After quite some time away from the blogging, I would like to highlight a new comer to blogosphere - my sister, Cindy.

There are many wonderful things to say about Cindy. First and foremost, add her to your list of blogs to read. She's relatively new with only a few posts, but her posts are warm and loving that center on her family.

I love hearing Cindy talk about her baby (ies). Listening to this new mother, MY SISTER, is so amazing that one whom I grew up with is now speaking so caringly, so maturely, so lovingly. God is so good and I praise Him for blessing Cindy with a great husband, Ivan and with their son, Preston.

Finally, I want to give Cindy a shout out that reaches all the way back to her senior year of high school. For some extra credit in her government class, Cindy turned in a speech for the VFW contest - Voices of Democracy. Let there be no doubt that her writing skills launched past regional speeches and triumphed over all state competitors that finally elevated her to the national level. Her speech continued to gather attention at the national level that took her on two trips to Washington D. C. and Las Vegas. She had the opportunity to rub elbows with Hershael Walker, Whoopi Goldberg, Harrison Ford, and Francis Ford Coppula. Cindy was excited about possibly meeting Oprah who was rumored to be there but didn't get the opportunity (yet!).

I would like to say that Cindy wrote the nation's best speech that year, but I can't. I knew at such a young age that something was sour about the judges. Recently my suspicions were recently confirmed. The judges have been implicated as Communists selling Human Growth Hormone and other performance inhancing drugs. There is no word yet as to the crown going to the rightful winner.

Nonetheless, enjoy Cindy's blog.
