An Introduction

Happy Mother’s Day. 

An appropriate day to begin this blog, as I feel that, mostly this is all I am: a mother. Yes, I do other things. Obviously, I existed before they came along. But, as a single parent and the sole support they have, it is an all-consuming task. A worth-while job. A blessing. Never ending and seemingly the only reason for my existence. 

It’s all true, yet never as dire as it appears. This is the story of how one girl has some kids, raises them alone, and some how manages to be....To be sane. To be whole. To become a woman. To be happy.

Welcome to my life.
