Are you a Single Mom?

[Julie]

I was for about 8 years.

Are you a single mother?

[DevynsMommy]

Single mom here! Some days it's challenging, but it's always rewarding! I love being a mommy single or not, I do what I have to for my child no matter the circumstances

It can be pretty intense can't it? I loved being a Mommy, still do. I have 3 kids and was single for like I said, 8 years.

Kudos to you! It's so hard!

Do you have a pretty good support system?

[MojosWorkshop]

It really can be hard! My oldest daughter is married, so I just have 2 at home, Jared aka Mojo Monkey hehe, who is 14 and Brandi who is 11. They have always had visitation to their dads every other weekend, but he is moving to northern Montana the end of this month, and it is going to be harder on my kids than I think they know...so thank goodness he is letting them stay through this last couple of weeks as much as they want and just go to school from there.

I don't have a lot of support to be honest, as my family is from Utah County, and after I moved out here I havent gotten close to any new friends or anything, and that is probably the hardest part...I have a lot of friends in other places and other states, but there's no girls nights and stuff...other than my oldest daughter, and we are really close, but I dont like to intrude on her and her friends even though they invite me, but I do join them once in a while.

And it gets really lonely because I don't go out to clubs and things so I dont know how to realy meet people...anyway not meaning to ramble on and on...

I was a single mom for 2 1/2 years when my oldest son was first born.

No I haven't been but I wanted to show some love to all the single mommies. When my dh is out of town for a week at a time I know how you feel. It is hard, I think you all are awesome for doing it 24/7!
