Like so many women,
I am left to raise my children alone.
It takes a strong woman to be a single Mom, she has to be every family member to her children.
Some days I don't think I am strong enough....
Each day is filled with worry and fear...
uncertain of how I will manage on my own,
raising, nurturing, instilling good moral and "family" values
and providing for them.
At the end of each day I thank God I made it through
and for blessing me with my children.
They fill my heart with their sweet love
and my world with joy.

My little stooge
These are my little miracles and truly the loves of my life. How can such tiny little fingers wrap completely around my heart?! They have taught me a lot about life and myself. I am a better person because of them. Patience (but not without some frustrations) has been the hardest lesson learned and I don't think, as a parent, you ever stop learning how to balance the yin and yang on the patient/impatient scale. As they grow you are challenged even more.
Someone said "Insanity is inherited,
we inherit it from our children"
Though I could not love my children more
I sometimes believe that.
About Me
I'm not a bitch by nature but push me and I can be.
I am easily content, the smallest of gestures sometimes put the biggest smiles on my face. I like to go out from time to time (haa haa, made myself laugh) but am most happy sharing a quiet evening at home, watching a good movie.
I prefer to cook at home, give me someone to cook for and I am happy. I like attention but not being smothered. I like to be persued and wooed with the little elements of surprise. Dazzle me and keep me in awe wanting to know you more--not too much as I will tire but not so little that I bore. When I happen to have some quiet time throughout the day, I enjoy kicking back and soaking up R&B.
Thanks for taking the time to read and get to know a little about me.

True love stories never have endings...
Faith ..
When you come to the end of all the light you know
and you are about to step off into the darkness of the unknown,
faith is knowing one of two things will happen:
there will be something solid to stand on
or you will be taught how to fly.
