Little Sweet Things

Good morning readers, or good afternoon today I got some sweet news. Something nice and totally unexpected happened to my Erika. She is a hair stylist and she deals with different sorts of people on a daily basis. So that is nothing new for her, what was new for her is that today she had a client who was blind. A blind little boy. She was nerve wrecked she was nervous on how to do this to begin with and even more so because the boys mother said that he was difficult because he's not good with hair cuts. How Erika handled it made me proud of her. She told this little boy what she was going to do and that she could finish the hair cut quicker if that made him feel better. During the process of the hair cut she talked to him, asked him questions, told him how brave he was and how well he was doing. Which in reality he was doing excellent. It went so well that he said he wanted to return and have her do his hair cuts any time he needed a hair cut. The mom was shocked by how well everything went and by how well he was taken to Erika. Needless to say this made her day and hearing about it made mine as well. It's the little things of reassurance and making someone comfortable that made this possible.

Happy summer everyone, the weather has been gorgeous and finally warming up and less rainy in my neck of the woods. I hope everyone is enjoying the weather and their days if you're out of school or on your day off of work. Go out and enjoy the day. I have a graduation I'm attending Saturday and this girl Alma, she's like my niece. Her mother was raised with my sisters, so she's like an extra sister. Therefore Alma is family. I love her since the day she was born. She recently asked me how can she deal with college? She is ambitious she's going off to be a pediatrician and she's starting that journey this fall but graduating first from high school this Saturday. So I went to my favorite book list on amazon. I read too much and write too much as well but most of all I love sharing my favorite books with others and if they help then so be it. For her I ordered

Adulting: How to Become a Grown-up in 468 Easy(ish) Steps by Kelly Williams Brown. She has advice for the readers. Somethings are simple that you can think of yourself and then again there are so many other helpful things in her book that I wouldn't have thought to mention to Alma. The second book I ordered her was The Girl's Guide: Getting the hang of your whole complicated, unpredictable, impossibly amazing life by Melissa Kirsch. Also a good book. Anyways so I'm going to put together this cute little box of things for her and a card. A card I've been writing and rewriting because each time I read it, it just doesn't seem to capture everything I want to say to her. Has anyone else had this problem? I have until Saturday morning to get it right so wish me luck.

On another page I'd like to shout out to a new author. She just debuted her novel on Amazon. Two stories, one about werewolves and one about vampires. I like to support new authors as well as well known ones. If you get a chance check the novels out. They're cheap on Amazon Kindle. I've found lots of great authors on Amazon Kindle.
