You’re a beautiful, strong, loving, capable woman whose baby/toddler/child/teen is SO lucky to have you as a mama.

Today, my children are with their father, instead of me. They are with him in the new home that he has created for himself, and them, separate from me.

Single parenting is all the same work without a teammate there to tap out with.
