Single Moms

I have total respect for single moms out there it is not easy by all means.
I am very lucky to have such a great family to help me!!! I don't know where I would be with out them.
I am not a fan of divorce so many people get divorce today, and not even really try to work out their problems. But trust me, I am not one of those. I stayed to long, but have come to realize why I stayed. I did try everything in my power to work it out, but I can't have a marriage with myself. But I stayed and stayed, because I have two kids with him.
After moving back to Tooele. I started working (even though I always wanted to be a stay at home mom like my mom) that just wasn't in the plan for me. I met the most incredible people to help me see that it is going to be hard to be a single mom, but it is so worth being happy for me and my kids. And that it is possible to succeed as a single mom. I appreciate them (Shelly and Vicki) They have taught me so much and helped me out!! I am know that I got that job for a reason. I since moved back home with my parents, so Ican go back to school. So I can make it out on my own soon. I am by no means back on my feet. That's going to take a while, but I am on the road to recovery. I am very stubborn I don't like to ask for help, but I have learned that it's important too. There are so many people out there that want you to succeed and that it is ok to ask for help as long as you are working to better yourself. (I am not ok with those on state welfare looking to stay on it forever)
I have discovered so many resources out there that are great help. I am even learning to coupon for diapers because they are so expensive. I don't know how anyone can afford them.
But I am so grateful for those that have helped me out so far and those who are continuing all the time to help me. I hope someday i will be in a position to help others out like I have been helped.
