Check her out! http://www.kimdevphotos.com

This is a continuation of my I'm proud of series. This installment is for my dear friend Kim Graves . It's a fitting day to do so because it's HER BIRTHDAY. I'm proud of Kim for her becoming veritable powerhouse entrepre-mom. Mommy, Photographer, piano lessons, full time gig...I mean aren't there just 24 hours in a day?! Her secret? Not 100% sure, but she's always been a firecracker and I doubt that trait will ever cease. Plus, she's kind of a good friend too! Love you Kimmy.

3 People That I'm proud of...

Recently, I was in a discussion with someone about accomplishments that we had reached in our lives and ones that we aspire to reach in the future. They asked me, "What are you proud of?". I began to think to myself about all the things that I had done and came up blank for more than a few. Whether from modesty or forgetfulness, I shared a few things with them and the conversation moved onto another topic. It wasn't until yesterday (in the random moments where my mind wanders, you know while driving or brushing your teeth) that the conversation struck me. I had forgotten that there are more things to be proud of than just my own accomplishments and accolades. I realized that I found great satisfaction in knowing that the people that I hold near and dear have reached some of their own. So I vow today and I task you with doing the same; regularly check in with yourself and let those people know that you are proud of them too!

My sis- for following your dreams to take a bite of the big apple. For taking steps to becoming the best Tameka you can be, on your terms.

For my love-Having a heart of gold and loving unconditionally . For grabbing LA by the throat and telling "it" I WILL NOT LOSE! For being able to motivate the ones you love even when you could barely muster self-motivation.

For my friend Q- For growing into your own in your own special way and for turning out to be one hell of a dad! Who knew?
Of course there are others that I am proud of. This is just the first installment of my new topic line "I'm proud of..." Stay tuned.
