123 223

21st Annual Beautillion 006

One of my favorite movies is Something New with Sanaa Latham. Near the end of the movie we see her at a cotillion and speaking to herself she is basically telling the girls that what they are experiencing at that moment is not real. She then realizes that she loves the landscaper and goes after her man.

For me that was the closest I been to such an event, well at least until April 9, 2011. That is when my family attended the Cincinnati Queen City Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Inc. 21st Annual Beautillion Militaire.

During the previous Fall my son had discussed being involved in the program with me and to be honest I said no. Then he was asked to participate a second time and I thought, hmmm…maybe it’s a sign. So for several months he, along with 12 other young men spent time together going to workshops and participating in community service events.

As the major event approached my son and I were forced to learn how to do several things new, including dancing the waltz. That will forever be in my mind. Waltzing to a soulful tune with my firstborn. All while he would gently let me know that I was not correctly going along with the choreography.

One of the cute memories is watching my younger son try and imitate everything we had to learn for the event. Even tonight he is dragging me around the house saying 123, 223. That is so cute and  you can see the impact the program had on him.

Early on the morning of April 9 we rehearsed and it was so awesome watching young people in their sweats and jeans dance in unison and with such poise. Then to see it that evening with the Beaus in their tails and the Belles in their white ballroom dresses. It was absolutely beautiful.

My family and friends had a wonderful time. The Beaus had created a bond that will stay with them. My son and I realized, in seeing the event through, just how much we really need to listen to each other and sometimes adjust the lead. That is definitely a future blog. Once when we were attempting the Viennese Waltz I heard a mentor yell, “You have to allow your son to lead.”

My little pumpkin didn’t miss a beat either. He knows all the Beau’s steps. His teacher asked me just last week, “What is this step he does when he comes into the classroom now?” He really, really enjoyed himself and just maybe in about 12 years he will too dance to the tune of 123, 223, 323. By then I will, at least should be, better at allowing him to lead.

My Secret Place written by Isaac Quaye

My Secret Place puts me in a place of worship. It's one of my favorite songs on Isaac Quaye's debut cd My Secret Place.

Isaac Quaye

Issac Quaye is destined to make his mark with his music ministry. He is a gentle spirit with a humble heart after God. A couple of days I ago I had a conversation with him about his debut cd "My Secret Place" and he told me the plan was to sell a million copies. I totally believe that he is on the path to do just that. Go to his site www.isaacquaye.com to learn more about about his ministry and passion for the Word of God.

Crave - Kenneth Carter

It is your touch that I crave, your love in which I bathe
Hmmm, something a woman would say
It is the softness of your speech and the firmness of your breast, that I crave
Hmmm, something a man would say
You are the forethought and afterthought to my happiness
Hmmm, something a woman would say
You are the warmth to my heart, and strength to my weakness
Hmmm, something this man would say!

One Wish - Kenneth Carter

You really shouldn't look at me like that, I may answer your inner thoughts
I really shouldn't look at you like this, you may question my afterthoughts
You really shouldn't smile at me like that, I may give you a sensual glimpse
I really shouldn't whisper in your secret garden like this, you may ask for one more wish!

Truth or Dare - Kenneth Carter

Us playing an intimate game of truth or dare
Love taps, kissing and undressing will be fair
Asking are you the best I ever had
Thinking if I say dare, you'll be mad
Asking am I the sugar to your sweet and low
Thinking if you say dare, I don't want to play anymore!

Conflict - Kenneth Carter

My eyes have my heart into something complicated
   I knew my southern comfort and your spoken accent would make sweet tea
     Now your honey colored eyes has my emotional defenses failing
       Prior commitment, has your eyes and heart conflicting!

Get Lonely - Kenneth Carter

I can get lonely, can't let just anybody hold me
 I can get moody, yearning one to share me
Some may say, I'm in touch with my feminine side
Trust, I'm all Man, so I'll let that slide
Love, I have plenty to give if your trustworthy
Affection, I have to spoil you if your intellect is noteworthy!
