Wordless Wednesday




I got asked a really great question on Tumblr, and I'd like to share it with on this blog as well.

My Answer:
Honestly, Yes. and I had to think about this for a second because, I have days where I have a hard time “accepting” it, but that doesn’t mean I haven’t “adjusted”. It took me a long time, as I was in a situation where I really did fight to keep my family together, I tried extremely hard to give my BD the benefit of the doubt and leave the door open with him, and he made terrible choices on more terrible choices, only to not realize who he was truly hurting… therefore some events happened, and I decided it would be BEST for me and my daughter to close the door, and inevitably ”accept and adjust” to the reality that I would be raising my daughter. Now one year later, I am PROUD to be a single parent, parenting ISNT for everyone, some people just aren’t capable of it. My daughter will FOREVER know in her heart and mind who is there for her. 24/365.

  2. I have so much respect for you and the love that you have for your daughter. I'm a young single mother and it's an incredible comfort to know that it's possible to reach a point where you can be happy and comfortable in the role of single parent. I seriously can't thank you enough for your honesty.

  4. you truly are an inspiration. My BD is not around but telling all of his friends how excited he is for the baby coming. Doesnt make any sense when he doesnt even speak to me. I can relate on the terrible choices after terrible choices.

    Im sorry you had to go through that but seems like you are a stronger woman because of it. :)
