Vicki would always send me pictures of Dolls...this was the last one she forwarded to me..this picture reminds me of you Vicki... Though the hard exterior you would try to portray at times...in your eyes we saw love, gentleness, meekness, peace, patience, kindness, and gratefulness for the experience and wisdom of life. Through your light I had the honor to experience your knowledge, encouragement, loving correction and enlightening dialogue. The time you shared with us all brings priceless memories. They will always be in our hearts my friend.You will truly be missed. Thank you for your time and letting me steal all the hugs I wanted...I can still hear you yelling "Get this little girl off of me!"

Wanna talk about fighting with Ms. Vicki to take a pic, Lol! She said she would do it because it was a momentous day for her baby but she wasnt taking her shades off!

This was one of those moments they managed to get a picture of Vicki.  We were at Norma C. wedding and had a wonderful time.  I will miss you my friend, but will always keep in mind all the advice you gave me for the past 20 years.  Love you Vicki Lynn!!!!! By the way, the hand in the pic is Patty another one of Eligibility Divas.

Mommas baby boy.... The one and only John Elia Warren Spears, named after her brother...

I guess Chaka has never been timid about being on camera. She looked directly in to the camera. She looks like, "Why you take that picture with this bonnet on? I need to show my Indian Hair." Lol! She probably smiled afterwards, thinking Im still cute though.

I didnt have enough time to ask more questions. I hadnt seen this picture in forever. Whose birthday party is this? Why am I wearing this dress? Lol! How old am I here? Im thinking maybe 2, maybe 3. Where were we? I didnt have enough time to ask more questions.

Momma was ready to kick butt for taking this photo. But Tim and Zareah were ready to pose.

Momma was so proud and thought Justina looked so beautiful. She allowed this picture to be taken, but only a side view.

If you knew my Mom, she didnt like taking pictures. She said I could this time, but told me to wait until she took her glasses off. I snapped the photo before she was ready, because I thought she would change her mind. She hit aferwards, but took another one.
