This post serves no purpose other than to just be. In defiance of stereotype or in support of what should be, either way, my beautiful babies are here living life in all its glory. Pure little black boy joy on display for all to see.
I present you with two of the most brilliant and crazy boys that ever lived: my 5-year-old son and my 4-year-old nephew. His mother and I were sitting on the porch chatting when they climbed into this car together. I ran to get my camera just in time. Their love is so pure and so innocent. I hope the world is ready for them.
Cousins by blood, brothers by heart. I’m so happy they get to grow up together.
Little black boy joy means cuddles and wrestling and loving and fighting.
Little black boys bring joy into every life that knows them.
Just look at this cuteness…

August 17, 2017 at 11:35 amHi! I’ve just found your blog and I’m already obsessed! My 9 year old nephew and 11 year old niece will be coming to live with this year! They are both mixed. My best friend, their momma, is single mom. We’re both white so everything we’ve learned over the last few years is mostly from blogs and google. I don’t have any children of my own, but thankfully and Happily, my SO is a strong black father to his own children, so we are excited to get to spend so much time with them this fall. Our little mixed family is growing and it’s been so fun!
I’ve been able to find some really great hair and skin care for my niece who started to take an interest in her hair last year. But man it’s hard to find things for my nephew.
His hair is less curly than hers, but his scalp has been itchy! Mostly from the sun I would imagine, because there are ZERO flakes, bumps or scabs or ANYTHING that I can see would make his head itchy. I’ve started him using a hemp oil conditioner and argan oil to rub into his hair. but HELP!!! Do you have any BOY hair care info I can reference? That would be soooo amazing!
