A Blessed Journey

Today I am happy that you and I both have the pleasure of hearing my second Single Mom Journey Story - so here it is. . . . .

My little ray of sunshine definitely was not planned. I found out I was pregnant and immediately wondered what in the world I was going to do. I could hardly take care of myself. I called the “father” and his first words to me were “are you going to have an abortion I will pay for half of it”, when I heard those words I instantly got angry and then started to cry. I could never have an abortion for more than one reason it is wrong.

So after my little one got here we decided to work things out. After about 8 months we decided to move in together and I thought everything was ok until one Sunday afternoon he decided he wasn’t happy and was moving out. All I thought about was how I would provide for my little one without the extra income. I made up my mind that I would make it work and my little one would be healthy and happy. It has been quite the battle in and out of court, lots of tears, and hurt. This experience has made me a stronger person than I could have ever been. My little girl is now 6 and is the happiest little girl ever. Even though times have been tough, I have done a lot of praying and had great friends and awesome family that have been there through the good times and the tears.

Being a single mom has been trying, but all in all I would not have it any other way. I love my life. I have my little girl who is healthy and happy and a great support system and that is all I need.

So anyone who says that it can not be done has never tried!!!!!!


I giggle at this story because if you have ever met this little girl and some of you have; you would know how true this statement is. She is a little girl that is full of life, laughter, giggles, fun, and free. She makes you laugh. She is better because of you and you are doing a great job. I know as single parents we struggle with so many thoughts. She is beautiful and sweet and tender hearted. We love her. May God go with you on this journey and I'll be praying for you and your little ray of sunshine always.

And remember
YOU ARE DOING A GREAT JOB ON THIS SINGLE PARENT JOURNEY!!
God Bless!!
