Aww, these babies make MKC so happy we love content clients.

Can kids be stressful!?

Absolutely!

Those gummy smiles and simple milestone achievements are so so worth it. Just wait until he claps for himself. That's the thing my daughter does so much right now that just cracks me up. She's nearly 9 now, and any time she does anything, she's her own little cheerleader.

Obviously she always sees us clap and cheer when she does something worth celebrating. We also clap and say things like "aww thank you for being such a helpful kiddo" when she helps do things around the house. Now anytime she takes her shoes to her room and puts them in her shoe bin or closes a door for me sje knows how much the little things matter. Best of all she claps her little hands in self-applause comparative to when she was 6 months learning how to clap.

Justice was served after a long fight. RWG Ahmir your life should not have ended at 18 yrs. old while working at your mom’s restaurant.

In her victim impact statement Preeti Tuli wrote about being a single mother to Ahmir — how she worked two jobs for more than a decade to help support her son and used her life savings in 2017 to open her Strip District bar and grille, Preeti’s Pit. By the time Ahmir was 18 in 2021, she said, she’d trained him in every aspect of the restaurant.

The last thing Ahmir said to her before he walked outside to take his break around 9 p.m., Ms. Tuli said, was a joke.

“You have 30 days to get me off the fryer.”

Outside, he lit a cigarette. Then he was confronted by a man later identified as Howard Hawkins.

Hawkins and several other men had gotten into a scuffle inside. They were tossed from the bar.

Testimony and cameras from the scene showed Hawkins going to his car, and then approaching Ahmir. As the teenager turned to walk away from the confrontation, Hawkins shot him in the back of the head.
