Babies' Daddies

Blu's boyfriend taught her the ins and outs of sexual bliss, and in exchange she had two sons to show for it. After doing the on again, off again, thing, Blu had what could loosely be considered a family of her own. A night of stupidity changed that, when her boyfriend Manuel got left holding the bag on a drug charge, and was sent to prison. Now Blu must decided if she is willing to standing by her man, wait out the sentence, and see what the future holds, or moving forward with her life to make something better for her boys -- alone.

Ashanti tried to get it right. She married who she thought was the perfect man. Their union was what her dreams had been made of, and it only seemed right to start a family. Her husbands doting ways would no doubt be showered on their baby. Ashanti soon found herself caring for not one, not two, but four babies, and wondering when the fairytale turned into nightmare.

Sandra is just happy to be alive. After suffering a childhood laden with physical and sexual abuse, she thankful just to have a husband that extends so much love and patience. However his biological clock is ticking loudly, and his desire to enter the world of parenting has Sandra more than a little apprehensive. How can she be a good parent when she has no idea what that is?

Higher aspirations and a college campus, bring these three women together. Their bond of friendship serves to strengthen their resolve to take charge of their lives, and propels them to become more than just another statistic.

"BABIES' DADDIES was filled with real-life situations; situations that make you sit down and think about the choices we make in life. Marlene does a great job of meshing the worlds of the three women, guiding readers through the value of friendship, loyalty and being true-to-self. This is a definite inspiration for anyone whose life has been plagued with disappointments."

"Excellent book. A definite page turner from start to finish. Blu, Ashanti, and Sandra are three women from different backgrounds. Each of the women has high aspirations that land them on a college campus together and form a lasting friendship with one another."

A shot of the rocks by the dam in the Merrimack River in Lowell. My wife, my baby, and I took a walk along the river on Saturday, and though I love a lot of the shots I took that day, this is the one I'm choosing for inclusion in the 24 hours of Flickr pool. I just like the drama of it, for want of a better word.

In Richmond, Virginia, Stephanie and Jasmine compete for affection from their grandmother, Big Mama. The oldest sister, Jasmine, is waiting on her boyfriend, Derrick, to get out of jail. After three years of loyalty and celibacy, on one of her visits she finds Derrick in a compromising position with his baby's mama, Wendy. The hurt of that encounter causes her to seek out her friend, Dylan. Their relationship starts off shaky when his ex-girlfriend claims that she is pregnant. Little sister, Stephanie, has a daughter by her high-school sweetheart, Malek, who left her to pursue a music career in Washington, D.C. Throughout all of the "baby's mama drama," Jasmine and Stephanie learn that they actually have more in common and that no matter what they will always be sisters.
