Hey Kids! I'm Back! Havn't posted in a while and miss it mucho.
I think I purposely stayed away from the bloggisphere during election time (just observing this year, reading, thinking) but I must share this one with ya'll. This is Tulsi Gabbard, America's first Hindu Congresswoman. She won her election bid this week in Hawaii and will be the first person in congress EVER to take the Oath of Office over the Bhagavad Gita. Let's keep diversifying and expanding who is representing us in this country!
On that note, the other week I had the privilege of meeting and chatting with for a little bit, Sharon Griffin, the Owner/Founder of Griffin Girls Publishing, here in Houston. Her company's montra is "Encouraging girls to defy the odds by dreaming big and beyond color, gender, stereotypes, geography, stigmas and much more!"
Griffin is an up and coming children's author whose first book, When I Grow Up: A Little Girl's Big Boy Dreams is amazing! The book depicts young girls looking towards their future and realizing they can do anything they want to do... including and ESPECIALLY male-dominated jobs.
Here's the Cover!
And because today is my first day back and I'm in the mood for a lot of pictures... A quote I liked from the film Miss Representation to go along with our theme for today.
Another shoutout to my Madre who did that exact thing for me.
Peace, Love, and Condoms!
