I’m a green girl

Happy March and happy #cerebralpalsyawarenessnonth
This journey for me has been a physical and emotional rollercoaster, but because of God’s grace, I have remained healthy in my adult life and gained the ability to do things many people said were impossible
God also has led me to have a change of heart about having friends who look like me and have been down a similar road as me.   The woman I am now is sitting and standing in gratefulness    #imagreebgirl and proud of it. 

My favorite Day

Hey, Happy Wednesday. I hope you are having a great day ☺ Today is one of my favorite days because I have #Lifegroup tonight! I love meeting up with my friends and having deep conversations.  We all need people that we can be 1000% honest with. 
In other news this morning, I had two cups of coffee because my dad accidentally put my first cup, which I was half done with, in the sink, so he made me another full cup.  

#BoundlessBabe

Hey, I hope you’re having a beautiful day. What are you doing today? Right now, I’m finishing breakfast. As a #boundlessbabe, we are asked to take on a chosen goal. My goal. Is to keep up my independence by using my wallet basket.

I’ve had this goal before, and I have fallen away from it. What will make it’s time different is that I have good friends to check in with.

Nikki Meets Nessa at Shiz University

Nikki Meets Nessa

One day a young woman named Nikki visited her new school Shiz University. She was a lover of performing arts and was a member of her church choir, and she loved cheering on her professional performer friends at small venues in her town. Nikki also loved gushing about her friends on her podcast Encouragement Notes.

One day, before class Nikki noticed a young woman sitting by herself. Being the extrovert she is, Nikki strolled up to the woman and introduced herself.

Hey, I’m Nikki! I’m new here; what’s your Name?

The shy woman smiled and said,

Hi,

I’m Nessa Rose

Nice to meet you, Nessa. How long have you been coming here?

My sister Elphaba and I have been students here for a year; I’m waiting for her to get out of her sorcery seminar.

After a few minutes of silence, Nessa got the courage to ask,

Nikki, why do you use a chair with wheels? I don’t like being in one; it makes me feel weird.

First of all, Nessa, I get it; I’ve been through times when I thought I was weird too.

At the last school, I was at, someone came up to me and asked if I would get any better. I went into shock and didn’t say anything.

I’ve also heard the question, how do we describe you? People who don’t know me often think I’m strange, and I used to agree with them and believe that I needed to be fixed somehow, but this past year has been life-changing for me! All of the ideas I had about myself have been challenged in a good way because I met a group of women who look like me. They are members of a group called the Rollettes members of their dance classes. You ought to look into the classes.

As Nikki finishes gushing about the team, Elphaba comes up to Nikki and Nessa; she’s pretty but Nikki could tell that people had considered her strange as well because she was green.

Hi Elphaba! This is my new friend Nikki; she’s been telling me all about her life and the people she has met. I think I want to try one of the dance classes she goes to. They meet on Tuesday. I want to go check it out. It sounds like fun!

Hi

Hey, I hope you’re having a beautiful blessed day.  What are you doing today?  Today we are babysitting a little cutie pie.

Before I go, I wanted to tell you about my jewelry.  The cross that im wearing was given to me by my cousins Yvonne, Oceann, and Skye. The rope chain that it was originally on was very long, so I recently replaced it with this shorter rope chain. The earrings that I’m wearing were our grandma’s so I feel like I’m surrounded by guardian angels today. ❤
