Single Parents Inspire Eachother

Posted on May 7, 2008 by modernsinglemomma

I just had to share this awesome post from the iHeartSingleParents forum, a great example of how single parents insire one another. One of the fab members at iHeart, Mary Mary, started the discussion “The Best Thing About Being Single…

Ok, so we are all single parents and I think we all agree that it is TOUGH! BUT, there are many times that I think that I wouldn’t have it any other way.
When do you realize that being single and/or a single parent is actually the best? When do want to actually count it in your blessings? What makes you remember that all the crap that goes along with single/parenting is peanuts compared to the gratification that you recieve?
We really are lucky………..we rock harder than anyone!

You can read the full post and to be inspired by all the replies and add your own too. Just head on over to this string at iHeart here.

Sure, SingleParenthood can seem like a bowl full of lemons at times, but what I am reminded by from Mary Mary is that with the right attitude and circle of support, one can make a sweeeeet batch of lemonade! I love how single parents can inspire eachother!

    I actually loved being a single parent, and although I’m remarried (for four months now), I still feel that the 5 years I lived alone with B, were easier. She and I have it down to a science. We know how to live together. Throwing other people in is tough. Sure it’s a struggle having to deal with everything alone, but I was lucky to have family and friends who were very emotionally supportive. :) I love them. And I loved having my baby all to myself! Sharing her stinks. Selfish huh?
