in my head Fabulous (for Imoh)

i woke up with Jah' on the brain. i've been trying to find a video for "diamond in da ruff" for the past 10 minutes or so, without success. okay, i found a couple of karaoke versions on YouTube, but that's not the same as having mr silk voice singing it himself. both songs have been running around my head, and so i thought i'd share the one that i can at least find. those kids are soooo cute.

my nephew Imoh is one today, and that's a reminder just how good God has been in my life. i still can't believe that my younger sister is a mom, and that lil' man is now old enough to run around the house. i still look at him and feel the strongest tugging inside my heart, knowing that nothing could be more beautiful or more precious than the gift that he is.

the song is "fabulous", because that's what we are. Happy Birthday Lil' Man.

My girlfriend just had a little boy today and it's one of my fave male cousin's birthdays as well. Today is a great day for boy birthdays.

thanks guys.

@ 3-6 (men, those legs long small o. lol)

Imoh is short for "Imoh-abasi", which i understand to mean "Olaoluwa" (The wealth of God). Imoh is from Akwa Ibom by way of Ijebu and Delta state.. he's a Nigerian baby through and through. lol. you should hear his names!
