About Me

My photo
Welcome my name is Sherri. I am a follower of Jesus. I have been blessed to be the wife to my best friend Markiel. I am a mother to my tween son Amari and my preschool daughter Sanai. By God's grace I have found true joy in serving my family in our home. Even amongst all the everyday craziness I know this where God has called me to be. I learn something new everyday. I also recently became a part time bible teacher at my daughter's preschool. So I have the best of both worlds.

God Life Happy Wife Presents: The Anita Claire Project

Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, 
just as you are doing. 1 Thessalonians 5:11

The one thing that I love about being a blogger is
the opportunity to share and connect with other ladies. 

Sometimes it may be other bloggers or even the readers. 

God allows us to cross paths in order to share our stories, 
and encourage one another. 

I think about where would I be without the support 
of so many others, and I truly am thankful! 

I'm all about supporting others, especially 
when I connect with their story. 

When I had the opportunity to connect with 
Kendra from A Claire View my heart was touched
by her project called The Anita Claire Project 
and her story behind why she began it all. 

I immediately knew I wanted to be a part of 
supporting her, and sharing her story on my blog.

I asked her to do an interview so she can share 
in her own words what her project was all about.





I am so honored to connect with Kendra and share her story.

I hope what she shared inspired you in some way. 

 If you are interested in connecting with Kendra 
you can reach her at:

What Wives Wear Link Up:Week 13

Welcome to the
What Wives Wear Link Up!
Week 13

 Jamaica:No Problem

Shirt: Gift from hubby, Skirt:Thrifted, Shoes:Nine West Outlet, Earrings:Thrifted
I knew I eventually I wanted to share an outfit 
featuring one of my favorite tees.

 This is a t-shirt that my hubby got me as
a gift when he went on a trip to Jamaica.

 He also got me a cute necklace and earring set
with the Jamaican colors, but wearing it 
all together is a bit of an overkill. 


I usually wear this shirt with a pair of cutoff shorts,
or even sometimes with my camo skirt, but I felt 
this time I wanted to dress it up just a little.

 So I matched it up with this thrifted green skirt, 
and my gold heels. 

Jamaica will always have a special place 
in my heart, because this is where me and 
my hubby went on our honeymoon. 

I can't wait until the day we go back!

What Wives Wear LinkUp: Week 12


Welcome to the
What Wives Wear Link Up!
Week 12

 Restyled Crop Top & High Waisted Skirt
Top:Walmart, Skirt:Thrifted(Banana Republic),
Shoes:Gifted(Nine West), Sunnies:Target,
Earrings:Gifted, Bracelet:Handmade by my daughter 

This week I'm wearing another one of my restyled pieces.

For my July 4th look I shared one of my restyled t-shirts.

It ended up having cut off sleeves and 
a fringed bottom, after I became bored with its look. 
If you missed it check it out here.

This top that I'm wearing originally was a dress.

I liked the colors, the print of the dress, and even the detail 
of the wood rings on the straps, which made it unique.

Of course once again I became bored with the dress. 
The fit wasn't the most flattering, so I cut it into a crop top.



Now in the past I would be the first one to say, 
"I don't do crop tops!"

I thought they were cute on others, and I've seen a
few that I liked, but I just wasn't 
trying to show off my belly liked that.

Then I discovered the combination of a crop top,
and a high waisted skirt. 

Perfect solution and nothing is showing! 


These wedges were actually hand-me-downs, 
from my sister-in-law.

They are so comfortable, and easy to walk in.


To complete my look I added a pair of shell earrings. 


The orange bead is my favorite part.


To finish up the look I put on my favorite 
bright orange lipstick. 

In my book a bold lip is considered another fashion accessory.

What Wives Wear Link Up:Week 11

Welcome to the
What Wives Wear Link Up!
Week 11

 Twinsies:Red, Black & White

 Before I had children I used to think I never wanted a girl, 
because I just couldn't deal with all the attitude. 

 I had my son and I thought this is perfect.
God knew just what I needed.

 Then I had my daughter and it opened up a whole new world. 

 I love having a daughter, because she is so 
sweet and affectionate.

 Don't get me wrong my son is very loving too, but
he doesn't let me dress him up like a little doll.

 It's something about having a daughter that is so fun!

 Maybe it's because she is so girly. 

 It also doesn't hurt that she loves fashion, 
pink, and anything sparkly. 
A girl after my own heart. 

 The one thing that I always subconsciously do 
is dress us up in similar outfits.

 It just seems to happen, I guess because 
I have a look in mind, and then I end up picking 
matching outfits for us both.

 This does happen often, but I have to be honest 
last Sunday for church I planned this whole look.

 I had fun that day. What do you think?
Me-Dress: Thrifted, Belt: Thrifted,
Shoes:Fiona, Earrings: Target 
Her-Dress:Old Navy, Shoes:Payless



This is where she began posing. 
She is a ham when it comes to taking pictures.
She is always ready to say, "Cheese!"

She was telling me how to pose. 

As you can see mommy isn't as natural 
when it comes to posing for the camera.  

I have like two poses and that's it...she has many more.



I don't know what she was doing with the hands up? 
She's very creative.


This is how the photo shoot ended. 
I told her just to give a smile. 


By the way these are the shoes that I
originally got her to wear when she was 
the flower girl for a family wedding.

I thought they were cute patent leather 
ballet flats they would be perfect and easy to walk in.
Plus her dress was to the ground so,
 you couldn't see them anyway.

Oh no not for daddy's little girl.
He thought they were not fancy enough, so
we ended up getting other shoes, and now
she wears these for church. 

Typical events in my household!

This week it was all about fun and color. 

Both Brittany and Lura are sharing flirty and fun 
outfits that are great for the summer.

 Brittany looks beautiful in a simple but stylish turquoise dress.
The color really pops and compliments her skin tone 
as well as her pink lipstick.

 Lura is sharing a coral top with 
a colorful aztec skirt. 

 The tan wedges are a perfect match to the look.
