Good morning Monica,
Today makes 9 years you left us. I only find comfort of you not being here is that you are resting in God's kingdom ✨️ ❤️ I had lunch with Desi last Sunday(she's ur twin 4 real) She is growing beautifully. Mani & Desi are so smart. Desi has that funny witty personality just like you. I miss you dearly and you will always be in my heart and in my thoughts. Love always,
MOMMY

Dear sweet Monica (daughter) I know yesterday was your born day. I wanted to post a note and also go to the cemetery, but I couldn't muster the energy or strength to drive yesterday!! You also know how uncomfortable I am driving in the rain or snow, lol. I miss you so very much. It is so lonely and cold without hearing your warm soothing voice and words of wisdom, or laughing, joking on the phone. I miss our conversations, I miss visiting you and the girls. Yesterday you would have turned 36!! Wow, how t7me is flying. I love and miss you!!. Oh, right after I posted on Facebook, I got a loving call from Destinee, she is so bright and Beautiful and caring, just like you. She asked how was I feeling cuz it was ur birthday, that really made me feel so good, my heart lit up. She starts school today, Jr. High School and Emani starts High School today. They are growing up so beautifully and fast. Destinee is almost my height, lol. Rest peacefully baby girl, save a spot for Mommy❤️

Happy 36th Birthday Buzzin. Can you believe how time flies? I miss you so much. Your girls are growing so beautiful- I couldn’t believe how big Desi got. When I look at them- I see you when we were young- running and enjoying life. I think about you/us almost everyday. My favorite Leo- no one could ever replace the spot you hold in my life. Have a great day in Heaven- Love you ❤️

Emani & Desi are doing so well in school. Emani was 1 of 3 students to get student of the year award. I'm so proud of the girls.

Merry Christmas Eve, MY beautiful Angel. I miss you especially around the Holidays. I'm actually not spending Christmas with the usual suspects (lol). Buji baby girl Ki'Ari looks just like your Grandma Dot ( My Mommy). I am so glad we have these memories to cherish and I can express them here on this website. My uncle George passed today, that was my mommy's younger brother. I never met him, but it's still so sad he's gone. Your other Grandma Dot's anniversary is tomorrow, Christmas day.

Oh boy Monica, I needed a getaway and I went to Punta cana in D.R. it was fabulous. I had a grand time, we had butler service, on call maid service, room service and bar service at the resort we were staying at. I want to go back, hopefully soon. I met a few nice people too, we decided to keep.in touch and get together ever so often and travel places. That's what I wanted to write earlier. I'll be back soon.
Mommy Loves you  ❤

Hey baby girl, I have a lot to write but don't know where to start. You know how much Mommy misses you tho. Oh, Sheena found some pictures of you, NaShawn and I in her storage, you know I didn't have any because of the fire. Well anyways God's plan for my life is progressing forward with a few changes that I didn't expect. I'm going to have to let go some people because they aren't supposed to go to the next level God is preparing me for. I really care about this man of God ridiculously so. I haven't really felt this way about anyone ever. I pray he is my soul mate. I feel so.much joy, peace and love in my heart & soul for over these past 7 months. Something strange has happened to me and I can't explain it really. But it's a really special feeling I hope everyone can experience. I pray for God's grace to sustain me thru the hurt of losing you too soon. But I know God has you, so.i don't worry about you!! Your uncle Jr. Passed. I know you , Mommy, daddy and Nana are all together ❤ I do have more to write but I'll come back on here right before my trip.with my boo, that's something to write about. Until then. Love you Monica 4ver and a day!!

Hey baby girl, we celebrated your bday with a little twist to it this year. We had a reunion with your Dad's side of the family that day also. Your cousins Steve, Myron, Keith, Deacon Leon, and Darcella, and more We had a great time. Also, I met a Man of God who is amazing, funny, gifted, tall, dark, kind, supportive, encouraging and is so positive, and perfect for Me. Guess what, I had no intentions of seeing someone from my Church, but that's what happened. Everybody says they have never seen me so happy, and baby girl I really am. I miss you, but I carry you with me always in my heart. He came to your bday celebration to support me. That really meant a lot to me. He met your snicker doodle and your baby brother. Everybody loves him. So you know he's a good one, a keeper. But, anyways for your 35th bday, God willing, it's going to be grand!!! This year was my 55th and your NaShawn 30th. Well until next time I write, love you my sweet Angel.

Hi baby girl,
I'm back!! Me and your Godmommy were at the cemetery on Sunday after your birthday. We sent a pink & purple balloon attached to the 3's from your bday celebration. We also had Church at the cemetery while Moo-Moo was cleaning around and digging holes for the flowers. I hope you liked them. I hope for your 35th all the people who misses you can help us celebrate big, I want it to be real nice. Doing it up big for you. I love and miss you as always. But I'm comforted knowing Mommy, Daddy, your father and your Grandma Ms. Yvonne are up there with you. Im quite sure you have a lot of conversations with her and Daddy. Im smiling now, just thinking about it. But keep watching over the girls and me and NaShawn. Oh, Guess who I talked to, Vincent and DeAndre.. it was a funny conversation to say the least.. Vincent wants to visit the girls,, aint that something. Ok, until next time. I LOVE YOU

We celebrated your 33rd birthday yesterday. I catered some food from Footprints, some Shrimp Rasta pasta and Oxtails and dinner rolls. Oh boy, I tell you, the best place that you can go to in Brooklyn to get Caribbean food. You would have loved it. But I know you saw we did. You saw the banner? Your Mommy got that made. I hope you liked it and everything we did. Buji is having another baby, a girl. You would of loved Kumari, he looks like his Uncle Jah,
(your snicker doodle). We love and miss you baby girl. God willing , I will be making moves. So far he is providing a way. I must stay the course and not get distracted and lose focus. More details about that coming up soon. I'm sorry I haven't been on here to write. But I promise I will soon. Til I come here to write. Keep watching over your girls and the rest of your family. Emani & Desi are growing nicely and are do beautiful. Can you believe Mani is going to middle school. Yeah, I know right.

Dear Monica,
I went to the cemetery today. I haven't been there in a few years, but since today Mark's the 5th year you have been gone, I went by myself. You know how afraid I used to be to go places by myself, you would be proud of me not getting lost on route to put fresh flowers on your burial place. I did get a little lost in the cemetery trying to find your name placecard and panicked like a little kid, crying and having a anxiety attack. But, I heard a few of our fav Jaheim and Next songs, so I new I was going to be fine by myself. Tiffany, Jamilah and Sheema wrote letter for Family court next month. I'm so grateful and thanful for them doing that. I miss the girls, haven't seen them in almost a year. Its wrong on so many levels, but I know you are watching and you and God are protecting them. I pray we get a just decision from the Judge on December 11th. Love you baby girl, I'm at PT.

Xoxo

4 years ago on November 9th, Monica, you left us in the physical. I carry you in my heart and spirit. I now wear a engraved picture of you on a chain around my neck which hangs down close to my heart. I love and miss you so very much. It still hurts my soul you are gone. I speak of you often with a smile in my heart but sadness in my eyes wanting to cry sometimes. Til I come back this site, so long my dear baby girl.

On the 3rd anniversary of you going to the Kingdom. I still wonder why you!!!!!!!! I miss you something awful still....... I know I am not supposed to question these things, but I am only human and your mother and thought we had more time to be on earth together, especially after Mani & Desi were born. You were supposed to bury me 1st. IT STILL HURTS LIKE IT JUST HAPPENED, that phone call that made my life, heart and soul hurt like no other hurt can hurt me!!!!! Well, your little Desi is not so little anymore!!! She is just as tall as Mani, Desi is sooooo smart and still has a smart mouth, LOL!!! They both are doing great in school. Oh, yeah, Desi is in Kindergarten, she loves it and you already know Mani loves school, she still does. I hope to see them over the Xmas holidays!!! Mommy loves and misses you soooo very much!!! I will alwaqys celebrate you and your memory will live on in those 2 darling little girls you gave birth to!!!

Monica, My Sister and Friend. Your legacy, will live on forever. Our memories I'll cherish those forever. I cant seem to find the words to express this moment, these feelings, these emotions, OMGGGGGG. Sometimes I want just want to turn back the hands of time an revisit every moment we shared, we bonded, we laughed, we cried (lol on those many occasions), back to when we first met, LORD our first argument, on the way from Brooklyn to Dallas...LOL Lord Lord Lord. Girl Every moment was a moment to remember. You know back when Emani was crawling and Desi was merely a thought... And that lead us to few years later when we took those test and found out about Desi, Her Birth. Remembering what it was like on Emani first day of school.......But of course we cant forget the birthday when WE ALL went to Universal Soul Circus for your birthday .....But like I said every moment and memory was one to cherish........I love you Monica, forever and always, Gi-Gi .

Happy 30th in Heaven baby girl. I had so much to say today but am left speechless. I cried this morning and it rained all day. Me and NaShawn went to the bowling alley and played games to celebrate your bday. We love and miss you so very much. It's still so very hard living this life down here without you, but I know you are watching over. You see how big Desi and Mani is getting especially Desi, she is almost the same size as Mani!!! I am trying to remain strong, but it gets hard sometimes. The tears fall and sometimes I get real emotional and in my feelings. But I channel strength and gather my bearings and remember that you wouldn't want me to be sad and crying, so I smile and think of all the good times.

Love you forever

Good morning baby girl

I'm still missing you!! I'm still thinking about you(always). I know you are in heaven watching over. I still can't help it sometimes that I wish you were here. I still have this aching in my heart. I know you don't want me to be sad, it's really hard. I know time supposed to help with healing, but sometimes something sparks a memory or sometimes someone reminds me of you and I know I can't pick up the phone and call you or you call me and I miss that very, very much!!!!!

Mommy misses and loves you!!!

Moni, we meet in the 2nd grade and were attached at the hip ever since!!! You were more than just a friend to me and we quickly bonded into family and called eachother cousins. We were each others shadows throughout our elementary, middle school and high school days. We would argue at 12 and then at 1 be calling each other back to apologize and hang out. Even when I moved to FLA, that didn't stop our daily longgggg talks. Remember running up your moms phone bill? Lol. Once I moved back, you would come to my house EVERY weekend and I looked forward to your arrival every Friday, ready for our weekend shenanigans!!!! You know more than me than anyone else in my entire life. You were always loyal to me and for that I will always be grateful. I will always and forever miss you and the one of a kind relationship that we shared. Missing you forever & always Buzzin.

Hey Monica,

I spoke with Mani & Desi yesterday via Tango. They are too much. They are such little characters. They were watching Ghost busters and kept trying to fool me and tell me they were seeing Ghosts. They kept telling me to put Moo-Moo on the video chat. They soo love your God mommy. They are growing beautifully. They miss you but they are doing well and are such smart little darlings. Emani is a writer just like you. She is writing a Female super hero story!!! I can't wait for her to finish and read it to us!!!

Love and miss you baby girl!!
