Still processing. Still so hurt. This woman was such a gem. A breath of fresh air in children’s programming. Created an amazing, now legendary show. I met #janiceburgess more than 20 years ago as a @nickelodeon writing fellow. Six months into my fellowship she hired me to polish on various shows and within another six months she hired me as a full time writer on #thebackyardigans where I got to write five episodes under her amazing vision and guidance. Thank you Janice for being such a force in television and for seeing the spark of creativity in so many of us burgeoning writers. Thank you for naming a character “Uniqua” making so many little black girls smile. I love you and am so grateful to have known and learned from you. May your legacy reach even further as you ascend to your heavenly throne. #blackcreatives #blackexecutiveproducers #blackwomenintelevision

Bowie. Here’s to your first year of life! You’ve been such a gift to my heart. I don’t think I’ve EVER laughed this much. You’re such a special soul. Just what I needed sweet girl. Grateful to all your besties (“I’m in love wit da Coco!”) and their dog parents. So thankful for your aunties and uncles for dog sitting, being a supportive community and talking me “off the ledge”, giving sage advice and getting you gifts, treats and so much LOVE! BUT biggest thanks to my cousin @twilder77 for sitting me down that day (probably on The Baylander lol) and talking me out of my fear. “Get the damn dog already! It’ll be good for you!” How right you were Trace. I may have called #bidawee in tears ten times those first weeks thinking I’d take you back but now I can’t imagine life without you. Bowie Iman, I Love you “dawgter”. #july9 #bowieblank #bowieiman #dawgter #blackdogmoms
