Hello Scribes,

My Godfather calls me Penn Penn.
I don't know how old I was.
This picture cracks me up! |
Ayodele in Swahili means "Joy Comes Home." I love that, I even have a friend whom I call Ayodele. I want you to know Ayodele when all is well. Ayodele when you are walking in faith. I have taught people how to take care of me when I need to remember my joy. My friend Diana sings my name and holds the note for a long time: Penda Jaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaames! I laugh so hard every time. Walking through this rough season, she has sent me recorded messages and left voice mails so that I could have a reason to smile.Thank you Diana.

Peaches makes my body ache from laughing so hard. |
