Happy Birthday to my Baby Chile - Adiya

By Gloria Dulan-Wilson

Hello All:

Today, October 30, is my baby chile - Adiya - Birthday!!!


Adiya 


She is the youngest of my three - which she says is no honor because she had to work as hard as everybody else.  But truth be told, she did get a fair amount of pampering - especially from her big sister, Kira.

Adiya was awake, aware, and alert from the day she was born.  Out of the three, she was the most determined to know what was going on - her curiosity knew no bounds.  She was the kid you couldn't hide anything from.  

If there was something that caught her eye that we deemed might be harmful to her as a baby, we'd put it in a high cabinet or shelf, out of her reach -but she'd find a way to get to it anyway!!  

There was a point where we thought that she could literally climb walls.  

She has grown up to be an elegant, graceful, beautiful woman - and I am so proud of her and all of her accomplishments.

She has that ready smile that just brightens up a room and the atmosphere, no matter where she is or what's going on.  She's creative and talented - loves to design clothes - got that from me; cook unusual dishes - also from me - and unusual hair styles - now that she learned to do on her own.

She loves working with children, and it appears they love her back.  

Having a family where three of the major family members all have their birthdays in October is both interesting and challenging - Kira is October 7; Lou would have been October 25; and Adiya's is today, October 30 - I had to do my homework on Librans and Scorpios - and believe me, theres a lot to learn.   I call Kira and Adiya the Book-Ends, with Lou in the middle of the October Birthdays, and Kira and Adiya being the beginning and the end.


Me with my "Book Ends" - Kira and Adiya 

(By the way - there is a total of 17 family members born in the month of October when you combine my and Lou's family - that's almost a birthday every other day - except for the fact that the only Scorpios were Lou and Adiya).

Being a fellow Scorpion made her the apple of her Dad's eye.  They were so alike in so many ways - they had their own mutual admiration society.    She inherited his dimples, which were hidden securely under his beard, and his sense of humor -though she can't tell jokes the way he did, she has a serious funny bone!!

Although Adiya was a lot better at keeping secrets than her dad - they had their secret codes.   I've always teased her that she was the custom made kid - but she exemplifies the Scorpio woman from the highest, most positive aspects - Scorpio is the only sign that has 3 levels of evolution - Scorpion, Snake and Eagle - 

Adiya represents the Eagle = She soars above issues, problems, challenges - she's ethical, insightful, principled, and fun loving.  The total package.  

As a bragging parent, of course, I reserve the right to extol the virtues of  my kids, whether they like it or not - and I often do.  Now that they're adults, of course, and living their own lives, I'm even more pleased with how they turned out.

Ms. Thing, as we call her, has morphed into this absolute beauty,  poised, self assured, elegant and genteel.   

So please join me in wishing her the happiest of birthdays - 

Happy Birthday Adiya

LuvU Muchly

Momi

Stay Blessed

VOLUNTEER FOR HILLARY CLINTON FOR PRESIDENT - CONGRESSWOMAN MARCIA FUDGE AT PHILLY'S CECIL B.MOORE HDQ. SUNDAY, AUGUST 28

By Gloria Dulan-Wilson

Hello All:

For those of you who are politically astute, you know that every little bit helps. We are in a serious battle for the hearts, minds and votes of America - and, though it should be a no-brainer, we can't afford to leave things to chance.  This is no time for political fence sitters; or too busy to be bothered folks who assume things are going to turn out all right.  

































I just realized that 30 days ago, on July 23, I was at a kick off reception for the media for the DNC at Citizen's Bank Arena - there were thousands of members of the press - mainstream, meanstream, and Black, all together two days before the opening day, July 25, when more than 50 thousand Democrats descended on Philadelphia to nominate HILLARY CLINTON as their candidate for President of the United States.

The hoopla is over, and we're 30 days out - with 67 days and counting - what are you doing?  What have you been doing?  What do you plan to do to make sure HILLARY CLINTON is the next President of the United States, and not the megalomaniac with the orange face and the comb over hair style?

For those of you in Philadelphia, you can contact the local campaign headquarters in your area and sign up for some of the volunteer events that are being planned throughout the city, but for those of you who are outside this catchment area and want to find out what is going on in your community, I've tried to post the link that gets you into your state so you can determine where and when the best opportunity for being a part of the success is.  If I've done it right, you can click on your state, and pull up the information for your self.  If I haven't, the link to this entire piece is below.

Regardless of where you live, or your political affiliation, we all have to come together to prevent American from falling into the hands of fascism.  

Someone once erroneously said that Hillary was the "lesser of two evils."  A very stupid statement, since HILLARY is neither "less" nor "evil."  She's actually the best,  most positive, most intelligent, and most progressive choice.  She is also an exciting choice because of all the things she brings to the Country over her years of having served relatively in the background - benefiting all whom she has come in contact - mostly without fanfare, and now to implement proven programs for the nation - I find that most exciting indeed.

So roll up your sleeves; bring your collective creativity and energy together - there's a lot do do here - not just for HILLARY, but for all those who are running on the Democratic line in your city, state, community - we have to think national, but also vote local - and if anybody dares uses the word "backlash" in reference to this - make sure you let them know that the Backlash is on the other foot - and that we plan to replace each and every repuglycon who ever held any kind of seat in any kind of position - from dog catcher, to mayor, to governor, to Congressional rep, to senate - we''re taking ot the trash, applying the toilet paper and the lysol, and cleaning out the mold.
