Good Morning

Good Morning everyone. I normally get asked what the definition of a Single mom is, Or you get someone saying your in a relationship so technically your are not a single mom. To Answer all of that Yes I am a Single Mom because I am not with my sons dads. It is not a Relationship status at all if you sit and really think about it. Its a Parental Status, Think about it you see lots of moms or dads in a relationship with someone that is not their child's mother/father biologically. Then you have to look closely at that relationship and see that maybe that other person is not helping take care of that child/children. A single parent is defined as the parent that takes care of the children more than 50% of the time. For me I take care of my 3 sons Full time and I have my bestie Angie who takes care  of her son and daughter Full time. Plus the parents that are barely in their children's life think Hey I'm a single parent and I want my child/children to show them off and make everyone think I'm this great role model for my child when in reality they are barely there and they don't understand what it takes to be that great parent for your child.

Yes all my sons have different dads so go ahead and Judge me and think what you want to think but I know that I have been in bad relationships that did not work out and no birth control don't always work and Condoms do not always work those things can fail at the wrong times. That does not change at all how I feel about my boys just because they have different dads don't mean I love them any less. I love my boys equally and with everything I am and I am willing to take care of them Day in and day out just because they are my world. I do everything for my boys and I love every minute of it because the payback for doing everything I do for them is hugs and kisses and those little I love yous all day long. Take a few minutes and think of why you would degrade a single parent for having different kids with different moms/dads? There are some of us who have had bad relationships and that did not want to get pregnant but it happened so they feel that they are responsible or maybe they are like me.. I do not believe in Abortion or adopting my child out. I helped make that child so they are my responsibility not anyone Else's. If the dad decides he wants nothing to do with said child then that is on them but I will not shun my child because he has a different father from the other child. Samuel's dad has nothing to do with him at all while I was pregnant he told me to get an abortion and I refused. I told him even though he wanted nothing to do with our child I wanted that baby. Samuel saved me from suicide because Kaiden was taken from me. And Here is where I tell you what nicknames all of my children have.

Kaiden is my little angel because he was my first born and I fell in love Instantly and knew that my prayers of wanting to be a parent were heard. Samuel is my Savior, Saving me from Suicide when Kaiden's dad took him from me and I was severely depressed. Elijah is my Miracle child because he has had the most health issues and we have been in and out of the hospital with him since he was born. At 3 weeks he went in the hospital and they thought he had Spinal meningitis, when he was 11 months old we found out he is allergic to Penicillin and he had Colitis and he was in the hospital for 4-5 days. Then at 4 1/2 he had to have his first surgery for an Inaugural hernia and circumcision and we wound up spending the night in the hospital because he was bleeding out of his little private area and that was scary. Then there is Christopher who is my little demon lol. He is meaner than hell but he can be a little angel when he wants to be. You see I do not love my sons any different from the other they are all my boys and I will always love them no matter what.

I hope everyone has a wonderful day today and I hope this opens your eyes to a few things about a Single parent. Please do not judge us because of our relationship status.. Its not a relationship status at all its a Parental status.
