As Mothers Day draws closer and closer, I'm reminded of how much support I have gotten from my beautiful Mom. Raised me as a Single Mother but never not once spoke unkind words of my Father who left and never contacted us when she was still pregnant with me. She said that no matter the hurtful was, her blessing was giving birth and having me. She raised me to be a strong woman and when I was weak at times, she gave me strength I needed. I pray that I can be that arm of strength for my children. I know that they are indeed the greatest gift I have ever been given.
