Father's Day Weekend Adventures

So this weekend was amazing. My amazing husband took the kids while I held my first Platinum Spa Diva "Spa Party" on Saturday, and it was so much fun. I was able to show of my product line, preform a couple of beauty treatments and share some information on chemical verses natural products. The Hostess, "Song Diva" aka Gida was so much fun to work with and the ladies in attendance were a hoot. (I promise to post pictures and video soon). When I got home the kids expressed, in their own unique ways) that I had stayed out to long!! I thought I was gonna get a timeout! Sunday morning was even better because we were able to help encourage the dad's at church with these AMAZING pastries called Cakeballs for Father's Day. There made by this wonderful little company called "Cakeballs by Destin". Fantastic!! You have to try them. Then, my family and I were able to join participants at the Eric Bowles "Stop the Violence" Basketball Classic at Each One Teach One park on 130th street in Harlem. My kids were able to spend time with their "Pop-Pop" and be shown off and only grandparents can.  During the game they held a moment of silence and prayer for Tysha Jones. She was from that neighborhood. Tysha was the teenager killed on the boardwalk in Brooklyn last week. This made me so sad and scared for her family and our kids. I get so angry sometimes because this world has becoming so violent. Does anyone have non-toxic, kid friendly, lead free child size bubble wrap so I can wrap my kids up. I'm not making light of the situation. Just trying to use a little humor because we're so vulnerable in this area. I'm going to open it up to y'all. What can we do to help stop the violence that is stealing and destroying our youth? I don't want us to loose another baby for foolishness. Thoughts?
