... And so it begins

My story begins on a Saturday on a mid-September afternoon in Milwaukee, WI.

Here is my baby picture:

Baby Xavier - 2days old

I know. I know. I'm the cutest baby you have ever seen. I can only imagine what you would think if it was a great picture. Due to my AWESOMENESS as a toddler, I found it imperative to use my baby picture as drawing paper. Let's just say that didn't end well with the parental unit that I call "mom."

Here she is. Yeah, that's the two of us. I must say I get cuter and cuter!.

 

For years my mother called me "Haviel" and claimed that it was my name in Spanish. This was the name that she called for the longest. Unfortunately, I found out in my high school Spanish class, that my name in Spanish is "Javier" and not "Haviel." Shocking- YIKES!!!!

So here is my transition from childhood to "adulthood' or at least what I thought was adulthood at the time. This was one of my senior pictures. Red is my favorite color, in case you were wondering. When taking the senior picture, I didn't plan on having a semi-matching child photo. It just so happened to work out that way, and well it looked awesome in the yearbook. Yes, That is my reflection of me taking a photo of a photo.

This photo was taken on my 3rd Birthday!

I lied. When I got older and more handsome, I was always called "My Prince" by my mother. Yeah, that's right, I'm the son of a Queen. My friends to this day still call me "my prince" since they found out. They think it's funny. IT'S NOT!

Here are my MVPs in my life- MY Family.

They have assisted in my development and have really and truly shaped me into the person I am today. I have so much love and respect for them.

My grandmother, myself, mother and my sister!

A few of my college friends. We became family. We still continuously show up and provide moral support for one another.  Much love to all of the above-pictured individuals, as they have truly inspired me to be my best self and be who I am today. Thanks!


Stay tuned to find out where I truly come from.
