I had a friend from my high school that definitely helped me become a better person. We got closer over the summer after we graduated. I will never forget him because he was able to stay such a positive person in a negative environment. Where we grew up wasn’t terrible but also wasn’t too great either. We had to deal with a lot of temptations and some danger too. I admired him because he was able to completely ignore all that stuff. Yet he still was popular in school and played basketball. He was active in his church and I never heard him use bad language. Just a really good person. Sadly he passed away when I was 19. I kept his number on my cell phone for years. That dude made an impact at such a young age. I will always miss & respect him. So rest in peace my friend Kendrick.

The Dream
When I decided to go into business for myself. I wasn’t aiming for superstar fame and limitless money. I was aiming for freedom. The ability to raise my kids with my wife at home. I wanted to spend time with my children. We’ve had to sacrifice a lot in order to do this. We had to save up and build our house to avoid big payments and we do not own three or four vehicles with the big house. That is fine with us. I feel so blessed to be in this position at this age. My music keeps getting bigger and so are the checks! The growth is encouraging. We made the right the decision. Getting paid to do what you love and be with the ones you love. Thats the goal. Have a blessed day!

Daily Blog post The stay at home dad
Never underestimate the stay at home father. I know it isn’t traditional and even the most modern people some times make assumptions that just aren’t true. I take this personally myself because I have been a stay at home parent for last six years! It isn’t always easy but this has been an awesome experience. How did I get here? Well that is a long and personal story.
When I first got married the plan was my wife stays home and earns her degree while I work. That was the plan however I worked construction and one thing I’ve learned while working construction is you will eventually get laid off. It also doesn’t help someone with a criminal background. I made a very stupid mistake when I was 18 and it cost me a lot more than I realized at the time.
I was automatically turned away from positions because of it and I lost multiple positions because of it. I always say to myself when my kids are older they will know the cost of having a bad attitude or negative outlook could end their future. I will also show them the 98 job applications that I was red flagged on and turned down immediately. I have more to offer this world though and thankfully my ambition kept me going.
I’m so blessed to have my wife. The most supportive woman I have ever met. I’m not just a babysitter or caretaker. I help my father who isn’t in good health with his side jobs and the land upkeep. I also have my own business that does generate an income. So thats one of the huge reasons it doesn’t bother me. I’m also a person who some would describe as a fitness nut. I lift weights regularly and I watch what I eat.
In conclusion stay at home dads are cool and I have no problem with being one. I’m proud of the man I became and I believe my family and friends are too. They know where I was headed and how far I’ve come. Have a blessed day.
