|LISA| Maralei's been getting smarter and smarter, recently she's been learning her ABCs and 123s. My baby was growing up so fast and I hate that I'm busy sometimes that I can't even see or hang with her. But when we do get out mommy and daughter time together, she's a blast to have. She reminds me so much of Pac and looks like him.

She started walking at 4 months and talking at about almost a year old. My babygirl so smart! I'm gonna homeschool her because due to my busy schedule, I don't have the time of day to pick her up and drop her off everyday.

After Blaque's shoot last night, I came home and I was just throwing up a storm. Maralei's been getting into stuff and when i say stuff, I mean my makeup, wigs, and clothes.

"Mommy!" I bounced up off my bed and looked at her with one of my bob wigs on. "Maralei...why do have on you mommy's stuff?" I giggled.

She bounced around with the wig on her head and wiggled her neck from side to side. I laughed out loud, "I can't stand you little girl!! Cmere, come cuddle with mama.." i patted the bed and she smiled then put the wig back on the stand, very messy like and came and sat on my lap.

"Mommy?" She asked softly. I tightened my bandana, "Hmm?" I held her in my arms. "When will I see Daddy again?" She said looking down. I sighed real deep. Every since Ly was a baby, she always been a daddy's girl. I really fucking hate that Tupac isn't here in moments like these.

"Well...you'll always see your daddy. He'll always be in your dreams..have you had dreams where daddy has appeared?" I looked down at her. "I think so...do you have dweams with Daddy?" She tilt her big head.

I nodded. "Yeah...i have dreams where he talks to me." I smiled slightly. "What do he say??" She scooted closer. "Well baby I can't really remember but...what I do remember is that he tells me that he loves me and that he's here with me everywhere I go."

She made the biggest frown, "Does he lub me too...?" She started to tear up and I frowned and teared up too. "Babygirl...of course he loved you. He wants nothing but joy out of you. Don't you dare ever think that your father doesn't love you because he has nothing but love and affection for you, Maralei. Trust me, I know." I hugged her really tight and I cried softly.

"I lub you, Mommy but you're squeesing me." She said softly. I laughed and let her go then. "Ok babygirl, go play for a bit then it's gonna be time to go to bed ok?"

Grammys season is here and TLC is nominated for BEST ALBUM OF THE YEAR and SONG OF THE YEAR. I'm so excited because I feel like we're gonna win big time, we always do.

"So Lisa, how you want your hair tonight?" My hairstylist, Cherry asked. "Mmmm...I'm keeping my bangs I know that..put me some balls in it." I nodded.

Tron and Maralei was playing together in the corner. "Woahhh, there's babies in here..very inappropriate.." Cherry joked and cackled. "Very funny okay." I rolled my eyes and laughed.
"You know...I remember when me and Pac smoked weed for the first time- well together. We were on 10!" I laughed
