On being a single mother

Being a single mother is not just one thing, ever. It is definitely not how I pictured having a family, but most days I would not trade it for the world. It is as challenging, rewarding and tiring as being in a two parent household. My situation is not unique, but hopefully it is uniquely entertaining. I’d like to offer beacons of hope cautionary tales words of wisdom my experiences and the occasional tip to those of us going at it alone. Sometimes what works for two parents isn’t feasible for those of us going at it alone.
