Just want someone to talk to
Hello,
My name is Tavia and I am 22. I am a single mother of two wonderful babies. They are exactly 9 months and 28 days apart. My son is 28 months and my daughter is 16 months. It has been a true rollercoaster. I have raising my two on my own for almost a year in half. Dating is hard, and honestly I feel like giving up. Once the kids are mentioned, I am surprised how fast they run. So in the end, it is just me and my babies. I wouldn't have it any other way. They mean the world to me. Seeing them grow up everyday, makes it all worth it. No matter how much of a pain they can be. :) I feel proud of myself for what I have accomplished and that independent feeling. I really don't have an answer of why I decided to write this blog. I am hoping that maybe there are other single mothers out there as well that might be going through the same thing or maybe just want someone to talk to. Maybe :)

Hi Tavia,
What a great post. I love how you mention that they mean the world to you and how independent you feel. I'm not in your situation now but I have been there so I can tell you that it does get better and there will be time for a relationship. It's all in good time so enjoy those babies. Your kids will be with you forever. Men will come and go, but one GOOD ONE will stick with you one day. Keep enjoying your babies and congratulations for seeing that you can make it on your own. One day you will be able to say you WANT a man in your life but you don't NEED one. And, that's a great feeling. Be proud of yourself.

HI Tavia,
When I first had my son 3 years ago, I thought the same thing. Datin would be hard, but then I met this guy at my cousins weddin July 14 07, and he knew I had a 10 1/2 month old son back then. He saw us dancin on the dance floor most of the night. Then my family, who knew him previously before, came and got me and asked me if o'd like to talk and meet him. So my son went to my mother, and i went with my aunt and started talkin to him. But my son came to me with in a few minutes, and instantly went to him, for no reason at all. My son is my main man in my life, however he's also my boyfriends. We have been going together ever since the weddin, 2 years and countin. My son's father hasn't been part of my son's life much at all. I consider him a aperm donor. My son even calls my boyfriend daddy. I love both of them very much. Hope you find someone like my boyfriend who will love you and your babies.

Hi Kay. I have found myself in a new town with a baby and no friends, and I can tell you that even with a husband, it is hard. I can only imagine how it is with the added pain of having lost "friends" due to divorce. I will say that online forums like MothersClick (especially MothersClick) have been a lifeline for me when times were hard. I hope you can find some friends and an outlet here just as I have. There are plenty of moms around who would love to chat anytime!

They mean the world to you and imagine how happy you will feel when, one day, they are grown and know their mom always put them first, how loved they will feel and how secure in knowing she was there for them. They will admire you and think you're amazing, just like we see you are now!
Keep being an amazing mother and that will be one of the things that your future husband, one who will be honored enough to have you and your children in his life, will love you for
